Actor/'Performance Artist' Shia LaBeouf Shouts at Wall To Kick Off 4-Year-Long Donald Trump Protest
Big Hollywood ^ | 2 hours ago | by Daniel Nussbaum

Actor and performance artist Shia LaBeouf kicked off his planned four-year-long protest of President Donald Trump this week by enthusiastically participating in the live-streaming museum exhibit in New York City that he helped to create. On Tuesday, the 30-year-old Transformers star was spotted at the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens, where over the weekend he unveiled his latest performance art project, an exhibit titled, “He Will Not Divide Us.”

Consisting of a bare white wall with a camera pointed out towards visitors and the phrase “He Will Not Divide Us” printed above it, attendees are encouraged to stand in front of the camera and look into it while repeating the phrase. The camera is connected to a live-stream that will be active for Trump’s entire first term in office.

Since going online over the weekend, LaBeouf has shown up periodically to chant along with other demonstrators. According to TMZ, the New York Police Department will maintain a presence at the site to ensure crowd control for as long as necessary. At times, dozens of people have shown up all at once at the exhibit to dance, sing and chant into the camera.

LaBeouf collaborated on the project with his frequent performance art partners Nastja Sade Ronkko and Luke Turner, who also worked with the actor on his #TouchMySoul, #FollowMyHeart and #AllMyMovies projects.

If I wasn’t sick of Hollywood before the election, I certainly am now.

Just got an email from my Congressman, Matt Gaetz. It included a poll. Do you approve of a border wall?

While I would be loathe to give the lefties any money I see on the museum website that admission is free every Friday, 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. so, if I were in the area I would stop in as often as possible to Freep the live feed. Imagine shouts of “Make America Great Again” and “GO TRRUUUUUMMMMPP!” or just plain “God bless America and God bless President Trump” triggering snowflakes everywhere to go catatonic. Methinks we could have loads of fun at their expense.

1996–2006: Disney career

Prior to acting, LaBeouf practiced comedy around his neighborhood as an “escape” from a hostile environment.[20] At age 10, he began performing stand-up at comedy clubs, describing his appeal as having “disgustingly dirty” material and a “50-year-old mouth on the 10-year-old kid.” He subsequently found an agent through the Yellow Pages and was taken on after pretending to be his own manager.[26] LaBeouf has said that he initially became an actor because his family was broke, not because he wanted to pursue an acting career,having originally gotten the idea from a child actor he met who had things he wanted.

In the early 2000s, LaBeouf became known among young audiences after playing Louis Stevens on the Disney Channel weekly program Even Stevens, a role that later earned him a Daytime Emmy Award.

He’s trying to bring back his glory days. /sarc

At least he’s helping raise awareness of WALLS.

It would be interesting to see if he lives in a gated community and/or a Manhattan apartment with 24/7 security.

IIRC, even Harrison Ford wants nothing to do with him after “Crystal Skull” because he was such an unprofessional pain in the neck.

I like how he picked up tattered gloves and “regular folks” clothing at Goodwill or The Salvation Army to put on another acting job, pretending he doesn’t have millions of dollars.

Should work on people that have I.Q. < 80. LOL

IOW, uber-liberals.

Well, everyone knows LaBeouf has questionable sanity nowadays. In fact, he's now shunned even among the Hollywood Left.

I have never liked any of his films - before his ‘art’ and politics. He’s a poor actor and it’s clear he’s mentally ill and/or it’s genetic. His father is a drug dealing sex offender after all.

He apparently didn’t bathe during the filming of Fury to better “understand” the rigors of being a tanker in combat in WWII. Didn’t go over well on the close set.

Though somewhat depressing, it was a pretty good ensemble war movie.

Four-year protest? Ha. He wishes. He better reset his Trump timer and protest to 8 years because lunatics like him will drive more union guys to vote for Trump in 2020. Loser.

An actor out of a job.
Hopes someone in audience will buy him lunch.
