Transformers Director Rushes to Shia LaBeouf’s Defense

Shia just might get out of that DUI chargeAs we reported earlier, Transformers 2 star Shia LaBeouf may not be at fault for the accident he found himself in early Sunday morning, but he is still facing DUI charges.

Seeing as the powers that be apparently don’t want to see Shia turn out like his fellow Disney stars (i.e. Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears), it appears as if his blockbuster-making pal, Michael Bay, has come to his rescue!

The Transformers director adamantly insists that his beloved actor was not intoxicated that night:

“He was not drunk. He was drinking hours and hours before… We had a little heart to heart the week before when he bought a brand new motorcycle. I [said], ‘Dude! You cannot ride that motorcycle! If you crash, you put 1,500 people out of work.’ He said, ‘Ok, I won’t ride it, I won’t ride it. I’ll just drive my truck’.”

LaBeouf Reportedly Not to Blame for Crash

Shia LaBeoufAfter escaping charges for being drunk at a Chicago Walgreen’s and for puffing away where he wasn’t supposed to, it’s now looking Shia LaBeouf could luck out again.

According to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, it appears the actor was not at fault for Sunday’s accident at all. Spokesman Steve Whitmore says the driver of the other vehicle actually ran a red light and caused Shia’s vehicle to flip. (You can see video of his overturned car here.)

But this isn’t to say the 22-year-old will get away without at least a slap on his injured wrist. Although he may not have been the cause of the crash, that doesn’t mean he wasn’t driving drunk. Officers report that he exhibited “obvious signs of intoxication” at the scene.

LaBeouf - who has not yet been arraigned on any DUI charges - is expected to return to the set of within a month.

Shia LaBeouf’s Passenger Isn’t Dating Shia

Isabel Lucas may be in a bit of trouble as wellBy the looks of it, Shia LaBeouf’s DUI charges may not be the last of his problems concerning this accident.

Days have gone by with all of us wondering who was in the passenger’s seat? Well, turns out it’s his Transformers 2 costar Isabel Lucas. The problem is that Lucas isn’t dating Shia—she’s dating Entourage star Adrian Grenier!

Lucas, who has been dating Grenier since February, may be in a bit of a relationship difficulty, considering sources are saying Grenier isn’t happy with the fact that his girlfriend was out partying with her gorgeous costar in the wee hours of the Hollywood morning. When asked to comment on how Lucas was feeling post-crash, Grenier became a bit quick-tempered and refused to comment.

It may have been a slightly bad call on Isabel’s part, seeing as her “friend” has a misdemeanor on his hands for drunk driving.

Shia LaBeouf Talks About Being Wasted

Given the news about Shia LaBeouf’s recent DUI, this interview he gave back in May really doesn’t seem that funny.

On Late Night with David Letterman, the 22-year-old promoted Indiana Jones and gave a detailed explanation for his drunken arrest at a Chicago Walgreen’s. While the actor did admit to being “a moron,” he also lovingly referred to alcohol as “special magic sauce.”

When asked what he learned about his run-in with the law, LaBeouf eerily said: “Drinking and driving is one thing, but drinking and shopping...it’s just as bad.”
