In the new issue of GQ, James Franco admits, “In most areas of my life there was very little conflict, except when I was working on a movie, and then it was just this enormous amount of stress and conflict. It was a horrible way to work. I wanted to quit”

Shia is now a big star and the paparazzi are after him all the time.
According to GQ, Shia is “sticking with his old friends. L.A. is his hometown, and, he notes, the paparazzi ‘don’t hang out in Echo Park.’ He and his buddies spend a lot of time just goofing around.
‘We go to comedy clubs, hang out in people’s houses, and watch games. We’re sports fanatics. Occasionally - I think occasionally - for a friend’s birthday, we’ll go to a strip club. It’s not like we’re terrorizing the town, you know.”
I hope Shia and his mom were kidding in this interview with GQ!
When asked about what parts of his life he keeps to himself, here’s his response.
“I used to shit on myself until I was 12 years old. I didn’t stop until I got a job.”
And his mom confirms it and then Shia reminds her about a karate class incident.
“Ma, ma, you remember when I was doing those kicking exercises in the gi [karate uniform]? You remember what happened with the kick that I did? My last kick in karate class?”
You get the point. GROSS or really funny?
Shia LaBeouf admits, “Oh, I’ve been in love with every woman I’ve ever worked with…but some aren’t available.”
“I don’t know if it’s mutual, but I don’t care. They have to kiss me when ‘action’ gets called, anyway, so I’ll get what I want.”
Damn.
BODY!
In the new issue of GQ, he says that “…Yeah, I want a bunch of muscle queens at David Barton Gym to think that may body looks dope. And I might think that was an awkward and dumb thing to say, but I still like that I’ll throw it out there. Because it’s true, you know?”
