Shia LaBeouf has become close friends with Marilyn Manson, after the actor directed the singer’s latest music video. (Which surprises me, considering the story we heard earlier this week about Shia going completely nuts on Marilyn, and spitting water all over the singer and his girlfriend!)

The “Transformers” star is a longtime Manson fan and now counts him as one of his dearest pals after shooting the promo for his single, “Born Villain.”

LaBeouf tells MTV.com, “I love Marilyn. Manson is like a brother to me now. He’s a real sweet dude, a real close friend…

“Marilyn Manson to me is an indelible figure. He’s a big deal to me, and in my childhood, I don’t know of a scarier figure in art. He, in my teenage years, was the scariest thing in the world, so part of me has always been intrigued.”

But the actor has warned his fans they may not be impressed by the adult video, which features graphic imagery.

He adds, “There are fans of mine who aren’t fans of Manson’s and vice versa; that’s why I think our collaboration is interesting. I don’t really see it on paper. I don’t see fans of mine who went to see ‘Holes’ when they were 12 loving this. I don’t think my audience is the only thing I should exercise my artistic muscle for. I don’t necessarily always do things for the audience; this is one of those.”

I watched the video – and I find it pretty disturbing, so I’m not going to post it here. If you want to see it, I’m sure you can find it. Here the new BFF’s are after leaving a promotion for Manson’s new album in Los Angeles.

Shia LaBeouf had a rough night last night. The actor was at an LA party when he began acting very strange. According to sources at the scene, the actor had a “public meltdown” and spat water all over his date and rocker Marilyn Manson before charging through the crowd to exit.

At the Aug. 26 opening of the LA outpost of The Box nightclub sponsored by Belvedere, the witness tells Life & Style, “Shia picked up a water bottle and shot a mouthful of water all over his seated date’s legs.

“Then he put more water in his mouth and started spitting it all over his tablemates, including Marilyn Manson. He seemed wasted.”

But according to the witness, neither his date, his friends nor Marilyn could calm Shia down — even after Marilyn offered a fist bump, as if to say everything was fine.

“People started taking their seats in front of the stage at the event, but all of a sudden Shia started shouting at his date and getting visibly angry,” the eyewitness tells Life & Style. Then he headed for the door. “He lunged through the very thick seated crowd, and the crowd pleaded with him and encouraged him to sit down. They tried to hold him back — but he kept struggling through.”

And the audience at the event got more than just the show it came to see. “Shia had to climb over people and tear himself out of the grasp of various strangers who were trying to keep him from going crazy,” the eyewitness says. “His date panicked and ran out after him. Marilyn looked shocked and annoyed but stayed seated. Shia and the girl did not return.”

“It was so insane — he just had a total meltdown right in front of everyone,” the eyewitness tells Life & Style. “It was completely out of control. He was so angry and physical. He was determined to get out of there.”

So what’s Shia’s problem? Angry drunk? Nervous breakdown?

Harrison Ford has labeled his Indiana Jones co-star Shia LaBeouf an “idiot” for publicly bashing their movie.

The pair worked together on 2008′s Indiana Jones, and while it was a blockbuster hit that earned $800 million, it was panned by critics.

After the movie was released, LaBeouf admitted he was disappointed with the film, saying he had “dropped the ball”.

Last year, he said, “I feel like I dropped the ball on the legacy that people loved and cherished… You can blame it on the writer and you can blame it on (director) Steven (Spielberg). But the actor’s job is to make it come alive and make it work, and I couldn’t do it…”

And LaBeouf even claimed Ford agreed with him, adding, “We (Ford and LaBeouf) had major discussions. He wasn’t happy with it either.”

But now Ford has spoken out about the remarks, calling his co-star a “f**king idiot” for turning against the movie.

He tells Details magazine, “I think he was a f**king idiot. As an actor, I think it’s my obligation to support the film without making a complete a** of myself. Shia is ambitious, attentive, and talented – and he’s learning how to deal with a situation which is very unique and difficult.”

I don’t know if I necessarily agree with Harrison here. Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull DID SUCK. Shia was the only one who actually admitted it!

What do you think? Should Shia have kept his mouth shut?

Last night ‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’ premiered in NYC. Rosie Huntington-Whitely wore a red Antonio Berardi Fall 2011 gown. I really like the dress, but not as much as as the dark blue Burberry dress she wore earlier this week.

Shia LaBeouf appears on the August cover of DETAILS magazine in a photo shoot with Matthias Vriens-McGrath. LaBeouf has thrown as many punches as he has parties, he has a rap sheet as long as his filmography, and when he’s not pissing off studio heads, he’s messing around with another guy’s girlfriend. But the 25-year-old Transformers star might also be the most honest man in Hollywood.  He lives by a code built on fierce integrity, recoils from material possessions, cherishes poetry and art, and despises all things phony.  More than meets the eye?  Damn right.
On getting into fights:

LaBeouf wishes he could handle such situations with more finesse. But then again, he doesn’t. “I would like to be George Clooney– diplomatic,” the 25-year-old star concedes. “I just don’t have the wherewithal yet or the inner serenity. My bullsh*t meter is tuned very sensitive. The minute it starts kicking up, I get back to truth, and sometimes that involves, you know, ‘I don’t want to take a picture.’ And if that’s the case, am I an a**hole for being honest? Or am I an a**hole for being dishonest, smiling in your picture and I fu**ing hate being there? Which one is worse? These are the questions I ask myself that George Clooney doesn’t ask.”

The women in his life:

Asked if he hooked up with Megan Fox, LaBeouf nods affirmatively. “Look, you’re on the set for six months, with someone who’s rooting to be attracted to you, and you’re rooting to be attracted to them,” he explains. “I never understood the separation of work and life in that situation. But the time I spent with Megan was our own thing, and I think you can see the chemistry onscreen.” When I inquire about Fox’s status at the time with her longtime boyfriend, Brian Austin Green, LaBeouf replies, “I don’t know, man. I don’t know. I don’t know. I don’t know . . .”—repeating the phrase exactly 12 times in various intonations, as if trying to get it just right. Finally, he says, “It was what it was.”

On his one date with Hillary Duff:

“probably the worst date either of us have ever had”

On “philandering around” with former co-star Isabel Lucas:

“It was sort of disastrous,” LaBeouf says. “Neither one of us, I think, were in love. Just sort of experimenting or whatever.”

On Carey Mulligan:

“I still love her,” he says. “I think she’s a fu**ing awesome person and an incredible actress. We’re still pals. I wouldn’t take any of it back, and I don’t think she would either. It just ran its course.”

Past movies:

On thinking it was Oliver Stone’s sentimentality that got in the way of Wall Street 2’s success: “He’s trying to play nice. But for a movie like Wall Street that had so much bite the first time around to come out without fangs and preach a message of hope wasn’t what people were looking for.”

Reactions to Shia giving a lukewarm review to Indian Jones and the Crystal Skull,

“When you drop the ball, you drop the ball,” he said at the time: “I got lambasted for that, and understandably so,” Shia says, smiling. “Because you can’t be an actor and be honest—that’s crazy!” Although LaBeouf tells DETAILS that Harrison Ford privately applauded his outspokenness, Ford recalls the conversation differently. “I think I told him he was a f**king idiot,” the famously reticent star says. “As an actor, I think it’s my obligation to support the film without making a complete ass of myself. Shia is ambitious, attentive, and talented—and he’s learning how to deal with a situation which is very unique and difficult.”
