In an interview for the June issue of Playboy, Shia LaBeouf reveals that his hippie mother used to wander around the house naked– even when he would have friends over– and that he was exposed to drug use from a young age:
“The nudity was weird, especially when her friends came over. ..All of them would just be naked around the house. That was strange for me, and it was really bizarre when my friends were there. You’ve got your little buds over, and Mom’s, like, playing naked connect the dots or whatever. She’s in the middle of goddess-group time, where it’s literally a bunch of naked women tracing auras around one another’s bodies with incense and then sitting together and humming for prolonged periods of time.”
His mother and father were also open about their drug use, which has given him a liberal attitude toward it as well. “I grew up with a bunch of hippies, and marijuana was always around,” he says. “Pot was never looked at as a negative thing. I could smoke it on holidays with my parents, and we were all good. I like pot. It has never been a monster for me. I can put limits on it. But I definitely saw from a very young age what drugs can do to you.”
Wow.. I can’t wait for his autobiography. A few years ago, I remember reading an article in GQ that gave the more PG, “mainstream” version of his childhood (sans naked mommies and massive drug use) and even that was engrossing and out of the ordinary. Something tells me we still haven’t heard everything there is to tell about Shia’s decidedly non-traditional upbringing.
Thank you, celebrities, for making me realize just how lucky I was to have parents that were weird and embarrassing in what turns out were very “normal” ways. I could have had a mom whose idea of consoling me after a stressfull day at school involved rolling me a joint and tracing my naked aura.
hahahaha. “naked connect the dots”? but i agree with you Kelly, i would totally buy his autobiography and read it. unless you were being sarcastic, in which case i don’t agree. hah. but i like Shia LaBeouf. Oh, and this title is hilarious.
Hey, my family always let me drink Manichevez on the holidays. So maybe his upbringing wasn’t so odd at all!
ok you are pretty funny, sorry about being mean. i think beet finally found some good weekend talent
“LaBeouf in the buff”
That should be the title of his autobiography.
And I would totally buy it, too.
Whack-a-doo!
Would that work out for ya in Fargo?
And what about tampon strings? Spattering grease while frying eggs? UPS at the door? Wet spots on a sofa cushion. Sorry to be graphic but I feel these are valid concerns.
He’s got an uglier pube-beard than Keanu Reeves.
He looks great hairy…
He looks great any how.
I love this guy!
I would let Mr LaBeouf seduce me any day.
He makes my tummy tingle. It’s too bad he’s a midget, though. If he were tall he’d pretty much be a superhuman really.

I would pay any amount to see him naked. I just got the biggest boner just reading this article. I want him to be MY husband or life partner!
This story gets grosser by the second. And I thought my mom was weird because she didn’t have a maid and sit around all day drinking coffee.
