Yes, the gossip continues to swirl around Shia’s recent car accident in LA. They have closed down the movie set for Transformers 2 while his hand injury heals. In a recent article in Details magazine, he states the following:

Most notably, the Transformers star`s openness about past rituals with his dad.

“We would drink together and smoke together,” the 22-year-old reveals. “And it`s just a bad deal. It`s not something that is conducive to being a role model—no iconic actors that I know of have problems like that. And I don`t know how to do it like a gentleman. I don`t know how to have one drink.”

Shia was not responsible for the recent car accident. The other driver ran a red light and smashed into his truck which flipped. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured.

I expect Shia will be visiting a rehab center very soon. We wish him the best and a speedy recovery.
