Shia LaBeouf Gets Hurt Again

Shia LaBeouf, who injured his hand in a car accident last July, has fallen into some bad luck again.

This time, it was due to a stage prop hitting him right under his eyebrow, on the set of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. After receiving several stitches, the 22-year-old actor immediately returned to work.

LaBeouf’s first injury from the car crash was written into the script, but it is unknown whether the latest injury will also be added to the story.

One thing’s for sure, moviegoers can see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen when it hits the screens on June 26, 2009.

Megan Fox is Too Thin

Fox has been told that if she would like to play the part of Mikaela Banes in the sequel of Transformers, she needs to gain 10 pounds. Director Michael Bay feels she is too thin for the part. 

The 22-year-old actress lost a lot of weight when she was filming Jennifer’s Body.

The actress told Fox News, “I should have toned up for Transformers but I’m really lazy. I had to put on weight. I’d lost a lot of weight and got really scrawny, but I was told I had to put on size for Transformers because Michael [the director] doesn’t like skinny girls.”
 
It would seem easy enough for the actress to add on a few pounds since she loves sweets.
“I have a serious sugar tooth, so now I eat red-velvet cake before I go to bed every night,” she revealed.
