Shia LaBeouf has either truly lost his mind or he is trolling us like never before as now it’s being reported he wanted to put a camera on his penis for his new movie Nymphomaniac. This news coming on the heels of a completely insane art exhibit he’s doing this week where he sits in a room with a paper bag on his head, not talking, with tears running down his face, and lets people pick up completely random things off the table in front of him.

But let’s not get sidetracked here. He wanted to wear a camera on his penis for a film, people.

Reports Page Six

“Shia had wanted von Trier to put a camera on his penis while filming, so that audiences could have the full experience,” said an insider, but it would have been too much for viewers. (And for his co-star). The film centers on a beaten woman who recalls her varied erotic experiences.”

Yes, too much for the viewers. Right. Good thinking.

One studio source said LaBeouf’s ongoing eccentric behavior is costing him roles, and that he was meant to be cast opposite Kate Winslet in upcoming indie film “Triple Nine” by John Hillcoat, who directed him in “Lawless.”

Others suggest that LaBeouf is taking a page from Joaquin Phoenix (who grew a beard and announced he was quitting acting to become a rapper, in a ruse that lasted years), and his whole shtick is part of a “performance art” hoax. Said a source, “Everyone who knows Shia is in on the joke. It’s all part of an act.”

What joke? What guy hasn’t wanted to put a camera on his penis? I don’t get it. Oh by the way, his art show? Yeah, he kind of ripped that off too. Apparently he considers plagiarism the highest form of art. That and penis cams.
