Too bad his job is to interview trained, professional liars who lie through their teeth and say whatever serves them and whatever their publicist tells them to day. It's so cute that people believe whatever an ACTOR says, without realizing the blatant, bold faced lies being delivered.
He asked multiple times and multiple ways if she fired Shia. She not once could simply say, "Yes". I get the sense he left before she had the stance of "he's fired." Whatever it is though, why does it matter? Okay, someone quit your movie, say that and move on to your movie. Why have arguments about it? * 6:37 "He didn't wanna be a part of the production we were making in the way I like to make productions, and so, he moved on." aka He Quit.
Like who cares Shia should have been professional instead of starting a feud with the lead actress and giving the director to choose between them. He created a toxic work environment. He’s an entitled millionaire in his mid thirties with a very volatile and belligerent history.
Florence has stated many times that she was NEVER scared of Shia LaBeouf. It was a case of Florence not wanting to rehearse the amount of time that Shia felt he needed to do the role properly. There was no problem with Shia's on-set behavior - That was all cooked up by Olivia Wilde 👌
Thank you for saying that! I feel like this doesn’t get enough emphasis. It wasn’t a question of “semantics” as Olivia would so badly want this to be about. She waited till he was publicly accused of violent behavior by his ex and chose to throw him under the bus for some cheap PR. She knew exactly what she was doing.
Olivia Wilde is a great woman, actress and director. It amazes me how comfortable people are critiquing a woman more than a man. Truly. I’ve never seen anything like it. If you replace her with a man, would you still feel the same way?
@@10113sarah Totally agree. He's the one who couldn't resolve his differences with a colleague, quits the job and yet Olivia is the one being raked over the coals. F*ck him!!
Sure - a “reality TV” star became President on his first try at running for public office… so what’s your point? I will say this about Olivia: her IQ is way above the “normal” range. We could do worse
I don't know what it is called in English but in Spanish' there is something called 'despido indirecto' when the employee feels compelled to quit because of worsened work conditions (perceived or real). The employer then says that the employee quit but the employee says that they were (indirectly) fired. The claims, in this case, are the opposite but it is about semantics too.
i was on that same predicament in my last job. manager went out of his way to make work more stressfull that it it was and i quite. im sure he would say feel he got rid of me (rightfully so) and i say i quitted, so we both have control of the narrative. but with this story, its different. she, her self said ''he did not want to do the movie like i wanted it''. so unless she changed in the manner of how ''she wanted it '' with the replacement cast, he have the full narrative. i said this because i watched Shia interview a few days ago (nothing to do with this story), and he said Hollywood was turning him soulless. so putting both those stories together, it sounds like he was asked to do something he was not comfortable with and he decided to quite.
I think in the case of LaBeouf there was pride at stake. The director fired him and stuck to her guns that he was fired because she needed to assert her authority in front of the rest of the cast, and Shia was not happy about being fired preferring instead to say he "Quit." It makes sense from both angles but Shia could be the bigger man rather than a whiny bitch about it.
“There were messages released to make something look like it wasn’t.” *Are you referring to the LITERAL video released, demeaning Florence and BEGGING Shia to come back to the shoot? Sis, you can’t fake a video. It wasn’t like someone used virtual reality to capture your likeness.*
That video releases was when Shia gave Olivia the ultimatum to choose either him or Florence before she made the call to fire him because she chose Florence. Guess you didn’t watch this interview.
@@imaretromillenial1990 but that's still her narrative? Did you see the texts where Flo and shia were totally cool with each other and even her saying something like why do you think I'm aforad of you etc?
I just LOVE IT when people bold-face lie about something and the interviewer doesn't have the guts to confront them. "I hear you, but what about this video where you beg Shia to stay in the film and you're low-key condescending towards Florence? Would you care to put that into perspective?"
Not sure if you know exactly how talkshow interviews work Michelle. There are certain questions a host is allowed to ask and not allowed to ask which are determined before the interview. Stephen Colbert did his job by asking the questions he was allowed to ask her and thus avoided catching any hell from her entourage. Also, it was not on him to call her out on any baloney she has said because doing so could land him and his show in hot water with the network and higher-ups. Talkshow hosts unfortunately have to tread lightly these days when interviewing celebrities like her who are shrouded in controversy.
@@xyPERSON I was talking about interviewers in more of a general sense. Since everyone has an agenda and interests to protect, very few of them actually stand up for the truth in ways that matter. So I stand by what I said, but thanks for explaining how talkshows work. I live under a rock and I had no idea that they have to abide by certain rules, you have opened my ignorant little eyes 😌
@@michellecgb Your sarcasm is cute Michelle just like you but I meant no disrespect by my comment. Colbert has always tried his best to make sure guests on his show are comfortable and treated respectfully because as a talkshow host who needs ratings he wants them to come back. I recall an episode of David Letterman back in 2009 when he grilled Paris Hilton about her brief stint in jail. Well...her agent and the network must have ripped him a new one because the next time she came on his show he did a complete 360 and was extremely nice to her.
Like who cares, Shia should have been more professional and not given her an ultimatum to choose between him and Olivia. SHIA LIED about quitting for not getting enough rehearsals.
also, the main issue is that her lead actress supported the movie through gritted teeth. her team made miss flo shirts, they didn’t interact at the premiere. of course olivia won’t address any of this bc there’s no easy spin
@@anieastonbaker there’s no spin to mitigate any of the social media 💩created by Styles’ toxic fan segment, Florence addressed her point of view in her Harper’s Bazaar interview. She’s not even promoting her new Netflix film because she’s been busy with Dune.
Stephen is a brilliant interviewer. He made her feel comfortable with sincere compliments about her work and then pressured her for a straight answer without being rude or antagonizing... brilliant
Those questions were decided before she even agreed to be on the show. The who thing was just a step below scripted. That being said, there is always more to the story.
The whole thing most likely would have had to be run by and cleared by her publicist beforehand. And her answer would have been carefully scripted and rehearsed
Soooo... he quit. Her original statement made it seem like she fired him for the safety of the cast a crew. Now if she's saying it was mutual and over creative differences, she should really apologize for her original story
He didn't quit, he gave his boss an ultimatum and said that's not how it works, he was fired by himself. How can you see this as him quitting? I'd love to see you go into work and tell your boss either she goes or I go and see how much your boss likes ultimatums.
This wouldn’t have been a big deal if SHE didn’t make it a big deal! She was the one who publicly said something about a “no a**hole policy” implying that Shia was the difficult one when it was mutual. So her saying all of this now makes her look dishonest to me…
except no a hole policy is real and was a thing back during Booksmart before this movie was even a thing. Although I do think she fumbled by saying she fired him unless the sources exaggerated her statements.
He was the difficult one, did you not hear what she said about having to choose either her lead actress or lead actor? Florence wasn't going to do the project if he was on it because of his behaviour. Someone on set said he put his hand through a wall out of frustration because of a lighting issue, and that was only the start of production, imagine how much more uncomfortable or unsafe he would of made everyone on set for the rest of filming. He has a reputation for being difficult to work with. If he was a woman he would not be getting away with it and using the director as a scape goat
@@hannahm3048 don't believe everything this woman throws out there, she's known for false narratives and lies, and she instigated the whole thing by making that video discrediting Shia. This woman is another Amber heard in the making.
He said, "I'm leaving." She said, "Please don't go!" He said, "No thank you, I am leaving." There is no room for her to think she fired him. She lied through her teeth.
Olivia has had plenty of time to correct the narrative about firing Shia but she didn't because it made her look like a girl boss protecting women. I remember this kicking up last year when there was a story that was everywhere about her strict "no assholes" policy. All the headlines at the time said that in relation to her firing/replacing Shia with Harry. A simple tweet from her could have fixed it but nope. It was a good look for her after the mess came out with Twigs so she let it ride. Women can be just as shady & self-serving as men. This is an "L" for her but she'll be fine. People will forget about it when she has a big box office hit or directs something else that's critically acclaimed. After that video & the texts, anything she says now is just spin. She's had time since it's all surfaced to come up with an answer for what we all were shown. Her 1st one, basically blaming it all on the internet, didn't work. This one will get picked up by the media & make the rounds but I doubt it will work either. She just should have said Shia left & that would have been the end of it.
I’m wondering if a production companies will take a risk on her after this whole spectacle. It’s one thing if the movie did well and there’s drama - better for them for ticket sales - but another if there’s drama and negative sales/reviews. I imagine that it also doesn’t look that the lead actors seem to be refusing to speak to her by the end of the project.
Honestly, I don’t blame her for trying to keep Shia-he’s Obvious casting for such a role and would have killed it-and it’s so disruptive to have to get new cast. But she was def wrong for presenting it like she was some champion of protecting women when really she was just trying to do what’s best for her movie-including trying to appease and keep Shia AND ultimately knowing she had to keep Florence versus Shia. But she did diss Florence, again with the duplicity and hopefully could reconcile with FP.
So, still lying. Shia and Florence never met. There was no argument between them. Shia was getting annoyed that there wasn't more rehearsal time for both him and Florence. Part of the reason for there not being enough rehearsal time was a scheduling conflict that Florence had. Shia was not annoyed at Florence about her scheduling conflict, that happens with most actors, he was annoyed at the movies producers and at Wilde for not working around her schedule to still give them plenty of rehearsal time. They had instead just cut the rehearsal time down. Which is one of the reasons Shia and Florence hadn't even met. So Shia complained to Wilde and said he is leaving the film if there is not enough rehearsal. Then Wilde dropped Florence in it saying that it was all Florence's fault for not having enough rehearsal time. And begged Shia to stay on if Florence agrees to work harder. Shia said again, if there is enough rehearsal time he would do it. Wilde went back to Florence's team and asked if there is anyway for her to get out of what she is doing now to come and do extra rehearsals for her film. Florence's team got back to her and said sorry, but the scheduling was agreed upon and she can't get out of what she is already working on. Wilde went back to Shia, and again putting all the blame on Florence, said that she can not organize extra rehearsal time. The only way she could do it would be to drop Florence and hire someone else and she didn't want to do that. Shia said fair enough, I understand, but I can't do this role with this little rehearsal so I'm out. That is the story. There was never any feud between Florence and Shia. And Wilde did not fire him. What Wilde thought, wrongly, was when months after this all happened and we all heard about abuse claims against Shia. She thought she could get some attention for her film by simply saying she fired Shia because she was this woke Director who protects her cast. It backfired because she didn't realize Shia kept the texts and video messages and that Florence wouldn't back her bullsh1t story.
My honest point of view is that Olivia is not gonna be able to recover from this. The way she tried to portray herself as this "protector" and then called Florence a brat behind her back? Come on girl.
Well, Florence told Olivia that she was uncomfortable working with Shia and he was arrested for petty theft and battery 1 months after he was out of DWD in 10/21.
It's so great the way most of this comment section supports a guy with a known history of violence and other assorted shenanigans, but Olivia Wilde "is not gonna be able to recover" from a relatively unimportant professional dispute. No double standards or misogyny involved at all! 🙄 People really cannot wait to tear women down over minor infractions while ignoring, or even championing, men like Laboef. Just gross.

Would it really be that surprising? Boxers and MMA fighters talk trash about each other all the time, but at the end of the fight they hug and say all that trash talk was just to promote the fight.
I WISH it were marketing, vs PREDICTABLE liars and cheaters.

(All 3 movie Spider-Men.....dated their lead actress! SEE how robotic humans are?) In fact, the DRAMA is far bigger than everyone is saying!
I just came here to say something about Olivia Wilde. Decided she’s not worth the effort after listening to her. Great job Stephen cutting through her BS.
She didn't fire him, he didn't make Florence uncomfortable and she's trying to capitalise on the idea that she did fire him because he made Florence uncomfortable. I don't know why she keeps digging this ditch.
Olivia did fire him because he gave her an ultimatum. She asked Florence about working with Shia and Florence told her that Shia made very uncomfortable, so Olivia chose Florence.
@@anna.specter Those messages between Shia and Florence were from 7/20, the video was from 8/19/20 which is when he gave Olivia the ultimatum to choose between him or Florence. They obviously were not getting along. Nice try. Shia backed off when Olivia disclosed his ultimatum to her which she was discussing during that video.
@@hcavill8144 ok so are there any messages from Florence or anybody else that are saying that Florence was "uncomfortable" ??? Are there any kind of proof to support Olivia's claims??? Or is it just her giving interviews where "she set the record straight"?? Also , wasn't Warner Bros statement that Shia never got fired. (I thought that was interesting 😂 🤔) No-one cares if she planned to fired him or something. The facts matter in these allegations. There is nothing obvious in that film , i think we get that by now.
he can. she said she wanted to prioritize and protect florence and he left. she didn’t fire him formally but he quit giving up the movie. she is not wrong and neither is he in that case
@@ellkmlmhmd she explained it perfectly well. he gave her an ultimatum and she preferred to move on the way she wanted. she made that clear to him (but didn’t fire him formally) and he left but didn’t communicate to her that he quit. she gave the final decision about him not being on set
Of course she was going to, it would’ve been extremely awkward if she didn’t… I’m sure she had all of her non-answers rehearsed, because she initially said that she “fired“ Shia, only for Shia to produce a video of her practically begging him to come back and do the movie
@@hcavill8144 how would Vanity Fair know? Because they got an interview with Olivia Wilde? …what would he “back off” from? He already released proof in the form of a video and e-mail correspondence. There is nothing left to “back off” from as he already proved that she was lying. She said she fired him, he released proof that was not true. Then she changed her version of the story after she was caught in a lie to make it look like it was just a matter of perspective. I believe video evidence over her word, or your belief in her word, whether it’s through a magazine, or a talk show. She has made it clear that she is a liar. Just like when she said she was “attacked” when Jason Sudeikis served her with custody papers. If roles were reversed and he left her for a younger pop star, and she served him paperwork, it would have been seen as an empowering move 🙄
She's lying. She begged Shia to come back. The recorded audio by Shia shows that. Colbert should have asked her that. She's making herself out as a hero by making it safe for the other actors. She's an opportunist liar. She even lied about the divorce papers.
Yes she wanted a lion tamer .He said "I don't work with lions". So I guess he quit before she obviously would have fired him. He jumped before he was pushed
People have a hard time understanding that both can be true. Creative differences are common, and people try to resolve them. It really doesn't matter who arrives first at the conclusion that it won't work out; the other one was probably 90% there anyway.
But they can't termination and quiting are 2 different things. There's a legal definition. The way she dodged the question and the video of her asking him to stay makes me believe Shia in this case. Movie was decent
A mutual parting of ways is not a firing my friend. Telling the world that someone was fired makes it difficult to get work so it’s a word every employer knows to wield responsibly. In Hollywood you just call it “creative differences” and move along.
@@aronm5329 I noticed that too. “We had to replace him” is lingual gymnastics to avoid a lawsuit while still tricking fans that she’s sticking to her story. Firing has distinct legal meaning.
She made out like she fired him in that article. She didn’t. She could have easily said they agreed to part ways then but she was lying and she got found out
People want an answer because they want to know if she begged the alleged sexual abuser to stay or if she fired him when he got problematic. It's not semantic. It's a representation of her character.
Yes, but not every night. 3 years of Covid, half year of war, the beginning of world economic disaster, I need fluff shows to make me smile and laugh after the hard day.
in many ways, it's very similar to how Trump operates (and oftern gets called on): simply denies or refuses to acknowledge the existence of a material fact, and ultimately, where can you go with that.. OW is essentially acting in the same way, but people in the media (for some reason unbeknown to me) are less willing to challenge her, than they are someone like trump. Of course there will be people out there outraged at the comparison but they operate in the same way!
Maybe she did or said something nasty. Who knows. Obviously shia would understand what she meant or she wouldnt have said it. Dont think it matters anymore.
@@i.1213 cause Olivia was being condescending towards Florence in her Video to Shia LaBeouf about coming back to work on the film. And she said Miss flo in it.
Yes, I hate pile-ons but this was at best “a mutual parting of ways”. It’s so wrong of her to ever have called it a firing. Why even mention his name to start with? And how does Florence feel about her name being used in such a self righteous way by her director who is supposed to hold conflict in confidence?
How is that quitting? He said to choose him or her, they chose her sounds like he fired himself. Again, you don't give your boss ultimatums, we all know how abusive he was to women is anyone surprised?
@@acun4075 Everyone has the right to ask or give an ultimatum to their boss and the boss decides. Did he abuse her ? No. She is a liar. She said she fired him. Now she said she did not. Too much manipulation.
What annoys me most is Harry was casted. Makes it clear that a director was pressured to find a replacement ASAP. Indicative that Shia was willing to leave and did. Lame move in my opinion. Pugh must have been glad that whole project was over.
It was disingenuous for her to say he was fired, end of story period. I would respect her more if she would give a full apology and explain herself honestly.
So Shia did quit, that's what i'm getting from this and she was lying about firing him. But now she's trying not to pull an amber heard bc she knows she can be sued for defamation.
If you go to your boss at the mall, and you say, "I demand things go my way!" And your boss says, "There's the door," then it's at the very least mutual.
Yes she wanted a lion tamer .He said "I don't work with lions". So I guess he quit before she obviously would have fired him. He jumped before he was pushed
She’s probably not wrong. Contractually you normally can’t just quit a movie because you don’t like it…you need to be “let go” from your contract…so he wanted out, they let him…which on paper can look like he was fired even though he wanted to be.
@@rui5421 Both can believe that they're right but only one is actually right and in this particular case, it's objectively true that she lied. There is no semantics here except those who are in the business spinning information.
@@eddiek8179 what she said is most likely by the legal layout, correct. He wanted out, so they released him from his contract.. She tried to mediate, it didn't work. There was no way that forcing him to stay on his contract would work for the production. He wanted to quit SO they let him go. I don't know why people are so obsessed with making her out to be a liar when the truth of this all is so mundane and happens ALL THE TIME.z If you're looking for the objective legal truth. He was let go from his contract.
@@rui5421 You're speculating and not following any of the objective facts supported by video or texts. So just because people actually follow her actual words and have concluded correctly that she lied, you accuse them of being obsessed with making her liar because somehow the truth is not relevant enough for you. The same ca be said about you except you're trying to make her innocent. You're trying to deal with semantics when there is none. You're the person they call for spin doctoring for political issues.
I listened to Jordon Peterson and Olivia Wild. Olivia is disingenuous and a liar. I think her career is going take after what she said about Peterson. It's easy to look up what each person said. Olivia has issues going on.
All this attention just proves that the clever marketing of the natural human drama happening during a production is pure gold. Makes me really question it's legitimacy.
He gave her an ultimatum, she made the choice to keep Florence which means letting Shia go (firing him). To him it didn't felt like he was fired because he's the one who came up with those conditions in the first place. Therefore if she wouldn't accept his conditions he wouldn't want to be in the film. From Olivias perspective, it looks like her making a choice that doesn't align with one of her actors wishes therefore meaning that Shia cant be a part of her movie anymore. From Shias perspective it looks like his director was not accepting his wishes what means he didn't want to be a part of her movie. It's not like she called him to "her office" and said you're fired and neither did he went to her office saying I quit. I don't think anyone is wrong in the situation, it's just perspective. And the viral video in my opinion is just her trying to keep both parties Involved in the movie and telling Shia she is trying to meet his conditions. Probably trying to keep Shia in the movie by convincing Florence to agree to more rehearsels. Once it was clear that would not be possible, she decided to recast someone for who that would not be an issue. The video does not prove what she is saying wrong in my opinion.
In the entertainment industry, there’s nothing new about a prospective employer not accepting an actor’s proposed conditions on accepting a role. What’s new here is that she’s interpreting that scenario as “firing“ the individual. His view is normal, her’s isn’t. That’s why she’s under scrutiny.
I think the problem was more the way she presented like it was best to let go of Shia because he made the team uncomfortable like he made the work environtment unhealthy . Hence making her look like some kind of hero when the situation was probably not that conplex. Just two sides whose expectations couldn't met so chose to not work together.
i think that private conversation is just her trying to plead with shia and telling him what he wants to hear. then the ultimatum was given and eventually she chose florence.. since shia wouldn't want to deal with it.
You obviously didn't see the texts made by Shia to Florence where he said he would exit the film the next day. Clearly that isn't a director firing someone. Firing someone and someone leaving are TWO different things.
Yes she wanted a lion tamer .He said "I don't work with lions". So I guess he quit before she obviously would have fired him. He jumped before he was pushed
Harry Styles is obviously blinded by love and thinks all those who want to warn him about OW are jealous 😂. But it's mainly his loyal fans who watch the movie.... Hopefully he will wake up soon and not destroy his good reputation at the side of this narcissistic woman.
This woman thinks that she is a genius. The fact that she called Jordan Peterson a "pseudo-intellectual" hero, when we all know that he is an educated and open-minded person who wants to help people, tells a lot about her character. She is just a toxic feminist who thinks that she is oppressed. As a woman I feel embarrassed.
Ofc it wouldn't, but even if it was mentioned in a interview, like this one here, you wouldn't see the comments from incels hating on Olivia, as we can see here.
Stephen asks tough questions when they need to be clarified to any guest on his show, male or female. Hiding behind the gender thing is not cool and forces him into a bad guy role. We all know Stephen is a huge proponent of equality and women's rights. As he explains in the second part of this interview, there is a hunger for this information out there and he's just the messenger. But if you like awkward elephants in the room that are not addressed, then go you?
The Irony is Olivia attacks Jordan Peterson for his masculinity whilst dating a man who wears skirts and carries a handbag.......you can't make this shit up 😆
The irony is that she attacks him for "misogyny" when she does everything misogynistic men are accused of doing (cheating on spouse who takes care of the kids while you're gone, uses power and influence over underlings to have relations with them, lies and gaslights to make themselves look better, etc.) It's almost like being a good person is what matters, not whether you're a man or woman...
There are people who are brilliant at their job but don’t fit into a particular workplace. It’s more adult to part ways rather than stay and antagonise each other.
Creative differences happen all the time and this quitting/firing should never have been put to the public. She turned it into a circus by ever mentioning him but hopefully they patch things up……
JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION! Did you fire Shia LaBeouf? Yes or no… Olivia Wilde?🤔 Stop dancing around the question. You obviously KNOW you DID NOT fire him, hence the email that came out that he sent to you.
For God's sake, she will never clearly say - "I lied" - we all know she did, so let it go already. I do hope Shia gets to work again, he seems to have turned his life for the better and deserves a chance to continue his movie career.
Did she fire LaBeouf? There's a video recording of Olivia Wilde begging and pleading with Shia LaBeouf to come back to the film. Facts are stubborn things.
4:15 so wait, even when someone has receipts and they prove you’re a lying narcissist, “it’s all taken out of context” It’s hilarious watching Colbert try to break down the double talk. She honestly should get into politics because she filled this segment with words that had nothing to do with the questions.
"Did you fire?" "We had to replace" later "Then you said you're fired" "Then I said that's great you go" and even later the telling "He didn't want to". This would have been such a non-story if she hadn't come out with the initial PR-based lie. Enough casting changes happen in filming normally as to be just a minor story, it was the lying and then wondering about the mystery, the 'why' of the lying, that makes people more interested.
OW beating around the bush and gaslighting is clear indication of her lying of the matter. OW should just own up to it and say either 'yes, i actually fired him' or 'no, I didn't fire him he walked away as he said. Maybe I should have clarified things up early on so the confusion don't get to this level. Honesty is the best thing. Her being honest will only lead to us loving and supporting her more. Hope she learns that.
Did you even listen to the interview? she technically did fire him, but at the same time he said he would go as it was him or Florence and Olivia Wilde chose Florence. So...they are both right. Shia can say he left on his own term and Olivia isn't wrong when she says she fired Shia...

She waited till he was publicly accused of violent behavior by his ex and chose to throw him under the bus for some cheap PR. She knew exactly what she was doing.
Speak the truth! 💯 too many lies going around on that man’s name
Olivia Wilde is a great woman, actress and director. It amazes me how comfortable people are critiquing a woman more than a man.
Truly. I’ve never seen anything like it. If you replace her with a man, would you still feel the same way?
@@10113sarah Totally agree. He's the one who couldn't resolve his differences with a colleague, quits the job and yet Olivia is the one being raked over the coals. F*ck him!!
@@10113sarah let me guess, you’re a woman?
God she could be a politician
and you could get a life
Sure - a “reality TV” star became President on his first try at running for public office… so what’s your point?
I will say this about Olivia: her IQ is way above the “normal” range. We could do worse
no she can't, you literally see giving rehearsed lines thst she obviously said over drinks with peeps... she's never been genuine☠️💀☠️🐍☠️
It was sarcasm. She never answered any question genuinely but only seemed to… like a politician.
Werd her ol lyin ass
I don't know what it is called in English but in Spanish' there is something called 'despido indirecto' when the employee feels compelled to quit because of worsened work conditions (perceived or real). The employer then says that the employee quit but the employee says that they were (indirectly) fired. The claims, in this case, are the opposite but it is about semantics too.
It's called constructive termination
Constructive dismissal in the UK. Grounds for a law suit
i was on that same predicament in my last job. manager went out of his way to make work more stressfull that it it was and i quite. im sure he would say feel he got rid of me (rightfully so) and i say i quitted, so we both have control of the narrative. but with this story, its different. she, her self said ''he did not want to do the movie like i wanted it''. so unless she changed in the manner of how ''she wanted it '' with the replacement cast, he have the full narrative. i said this because i watched Shia interview a few days ago (nothing to do with this story), and he said Hollywood was turning him soulless. so putting both those stories together, it sounds like he was asked to do something he was not comfortable with and he decided to quite.
I think in the case of LaBeouf there was pride at stake. The director fired him and stuck to her guns that he was fired because she needed to assert her authority in front of the rest of the cast, and Shia was not happy about being fired preferring instead to say he "Quit." It makes sense from both angles but Shia could be the bigger man rather than a whiny bitch about it.
@@animalworld5296 Shia created a toxic work environment and made Olivia choose between him or Florence. Not like your situation.
She should run for office with how well she didn't answer that question.
For real just like those CEOs in congressional hearings and judge appointments
Yeah she's shady like a politician.
I would love to take a course on how to talk like a politician. If there is ever a Masterclass on that, I'll sign up!
“There were messages released to make something look like it wasn’t.”
*Are you referring to the LITERAL video released, demeaning Florence and BEGGING Shia to come back to the shoot? Sis, you can’t fake a video. It wasn’t like someone used virtual reality to capture your likeness.*
That video releases was when Shia gave Olivia the ultimatum to choose either him or Florence before she made the call to fire him because she chose Florence. Guess you didn’t watch this interview.
Welll they can do that, but don’t think that happened here

Yet another case of entitled celebrity trying to blame everyone but herself.
You can judge someone's honesty from the way they answer the simple "yes/no" questions.
I just LOVE IT when people bold-face lie about something and the interviewer doesn't have the guts to confront them. "I hear you, but what about this video where you beg Shia to stay in the film and you're low-key condescending towards Florence? Would you care to put that into perspective?"
Not sure if you know exactly how talkshow interviews work Michelle. There are certain questions a host is allowed to ask and not allowed to ask which are determined before the interview. Stephen Colbert did his job by asking the questions he was allowed to ask her and thus avoided catching any hell from her entourage. Also, it was not on him to call her out on any baloney she has said because doing so could land him and his show in hot water with the network and higher-ups. Talkshow hosts unfortunately have to tread lightly these days when interviewing celebrities like her who are shrouded in controversy.
@@xyPERSON I was talking about interviewers in more of a general sense. Since everyone has an agenda and interests to protect, very few of them actually stand up for the truth in ways that matter. So I stand by what I said, but thanks for explaining how talkshows work. I live under a rock and I had no idea that they have to abide by certain rules, you have opened my ignorant little eyes 😌
Obviously it was decided in advance that SC would not ask Olivia Wilde about those leaked videos
@@michellecgb Your sarcasm is cute Michelle just like you but I meant no disrespect by my comment. Colbert has always tried his best to make sure guests on his show are comfortable and treated respectfully because as a talkshow host who needs ratings he wants them to come back. I recall an episode of David Letterman back in 2009 when he grilled Paris Hilton about her brief stint in jail. Well...her agent and the network must have ripped him a new one because the next time she came on his show he did a complete 360 and was extremely nice to her.
Like who cares, Shia should have been more professional and not given her an ultimatum to choose between him and Olivia. SHIA LIED about quitting for not getting enough rehearsals.
She's that friend in your circle you can't stand because they're so fake.
Shame because it’s so obvious lol and she has a great butt
also, the main issue is that her lead actress supported the movie through gritted teeth. her team made miss flo shirts, they didn’t interact at the premiere. of course olivia won’t address any of this bc there’s no easy spin
Florence Pugh already said in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar that she was fed up answering questions about working with Harry Styles.
@@bowie4ever824 what is this in response to?
@@anieastonbaker there’s no spin to mitigate any of the social media 💩created by Styles’ toxic fan segment, Florence addressed her point of view in her Harper’s Bazaar interview. She’s not even promoting her new Netflix film because she’s been busy with Dune.
@@flightoffancylady4809interesting take!
Maybe she doesn't want to say they were being childish babies because she has more class than that.
Stephen is a brilliant interviewer. He made her feel comfortable with sincere compliments about her work and then pressured her for a straight answer without being rude or antagonizing... brilliant
Those questions were decided before she even agreed to be on the show. The who thing was just a step below scripted. That being said, there is always more to the story.
@@kadewilliams7925 she’s been consistently saying that about Pugh since the movie production.

@@angelbedolla347 you’re all way too obsessed with Olivia, so crazy. You must be a 1D stan who hates her for dating your idol.
The whole thing most likely would have had to be run by and cleared by her publicist beforehand. And her answer would have been carefully scripted and rehearsed
Soooo... he quit. Her original statement made it seem like she fired him for the safety of the cast a crew. Now if she's saying it was mutual and over creative differences, she should really apologize for her original story
The woman is a nutcase
He didn't quit, he gave his boss an ultimatum and said that's not how it works, he was fired by himself. How can you see this as him quitting? I'd love to see you go into work and tell your boss either she goes or I go and see how much your boss likes ultimatums.
@@acun4075 thank you
wow. she explained it really well and diplomatically, and you STILL don;'t get it? 🙄57 of you?!
so you didnt pay attention to the entire point of the interview lol
Is it me or is Colbert asking harder questions since his return?
I have a feeling this was all PR someone in Wilde’s team or Wilde said I need to address everything on the show and this was the result
I suspect she told him that he could. I think the drama has been very good for the film.
The interview is always dependent on what the guest agrees to. Olivia wanted/needed this.
Is he? I stopped watching for a while now. I’m wondering if I should start again, his show felt so shallow before.
He asked James Franco some tough ones a couple of years ago.
Love how the biggest part of this film is someone that quit hahaha
Her movie is sitting at 35% on rotten tomatoes…
Clearly shows how well it is being received as compared to her first triumphant outing Booksmart.
the movie was good
Rotten tomatoes only measures how many people are stupid enough to waste their time on Rotten Tomatoes.
Its a great movie tbh ..
Rotten Tomatoes is so fucking wrong , such a great film it is absolutely up there
I can still hear her condescendingly saying “Miss Flo.”
Oh, the humanity. Miss Flo isn't a child. Everyone is going to live.
This wouldn’t have been a big deal if SHE didn’t make it a big deal! She was the one who publicly said something about a “no a**hole policy” implying that Shia was the difficult one when it was mutual. So her saying all of this now makes her look dishonest to me…
except no a hole policy is real and was a thing back during Booksmart before this movie was even a thing. Although I do think she fumbled by saying she fired him unless the sources exaggerated her statements.
@@nalday2534 I agree. I get the policy but that’s not exactly what happened in this case.
He was the difficult one, did you not hear what she said about having to choose either her lead actress or lead actor? Florence wasn't going to do the project if he was on it because of his behaviour. Someone on set said he put his hand through a wall out of frustration because of a lighting issue, and that was only the start of production, imagine how much more uncomfortable or unsafe he would of made everyone on set for the rest of filming. He has a reputation for being difficult to work with. If he was a woman he would not be getting away with it and using the director as a scape goat
@@hannahm3048 don't believe everything this woman throws out there, she's known for false narratives and lies, and she instigated the whole thing by making that video discrediting Shia. This woman is another Amber heard in the making.
@@Mark_106 no, actually Shia has been called out for being a pathological liar by TWIG and SIA.
He said, "I'm leaving."
She said, "Please don't go!"
He said, "No thank you, I am leaving."
There is no room for her to think she fired him. She lied through her teeth.
That's a lot of dancing around just to say "Yes" or "No" I Fired him.
well she called to fire Shia to address the ultimatum and he said that I quit during the same call.
Olivia has had plenty of time to correct the narrative about firing Shia but she didn't because it made her look like a girl boss protecting women. I remember this kicking up last year when there was a story that was everywhere about her strict "no assholes" policy. All the headlines at the time said that in relation to her firing/replacing Shia with Harry. A simple tweet from her could have fixed it but nope. It was a good look for her after the mess came out with Twigs so she let it ride. Women can be just as shady & self-serving as men. This is an "L" for her but she'll be fine. People will forget about it when she has a big box office hit or directs something else that's critically acclaimed. After that video & the texts, anything she says now is just spin. She's had time since it's all surfaced to come up with an answer for what we all were shown. Her 1st one, basically blaming it all on the internet, didn't work. This one will get picked up by the media & make the rounds but I doubt it will work either. She just should have said Shia left & that would have been the end of it.
I’m wondering if a production companies will take a risk on her after this whole spectacle. It’s one thing if the movie did well and there’s drama - better for them for ticket sales - but another if there’s drama and negative sales/reviews. I imagine that it also doesn’t look that the lead actors seem to be refusing to speak to her by the end of the project.
@@khadeejaahsan4512Oh wow, I hadn't thought of it that way. She'd better hope the Harry fans & a nice chunk of the general public go see it.
@@khadeejaahsan4512 well maybe it was a whole spectacle because she was a female director. Ppl paying more attention.
Honestly, I don’t blame her for trying to keep Shia-he’s Obvious casting for such a role and would have killed it-and it’s so disruptive to have to get new cast. But she was def wrong for presenting it like she was some champion of protecting women when really she was just trying to do what’s best for her movie-including trying to appease and keep Shia AND ultimately knowing she had to keep Florence versus Shia. But she did diss Florence, again with the duplicity and hopefully could reconcile with FP.
@@CM-pf1xc reasonably fair take
So, still lying.
Shia and Florence never met. There was no argument between them.
Shia was getting annoyed that there wasn't more rehearsal time for both him and Florence.
Part of the reason for there not being enough rehearsal time was a scheduling conflict that Florence had.
Shia was not annoyed at Florence about her scheduling conflict, that happens with most actors, he was annoyed at the movies producers and at Wilde for not working around her schedule to still give them plenty of rehearsal time. They had instead just cut the rehearsal time down. Which is one of the reasons Shia and Florence hadn't even met.
So Shia complained to Wilde and said he is leaving the film if there is not enough rehearsal.
Then Wilde dropped Florence in it saying that it was all Florence's fault for not having enough rehearsal time. And begged Shia to stay on if Florence agrees to work harder.
Shia said again, if there is enough rehearsal time he would do it.
Wilde went back to Florence's team and asked if there is anyway for her to get out of what she is doing now to come and do extra rehearsals for her film.
Florence's team got back to her and said sorry, but the scheduling was agreed upon and she can't get out of what she is already working on.
Wilde went back to Shia, and again putting all the blame on Florence, said that she can not organize extra rehearsal time. The only way she could do it would be to drop Florence and hire someone else and she didn't want to do that.
Shia said fair enough, I understand, but I can't do this role with this little rehearsal so I'm out.
That is the story.
There was never any feud between Florence and Shia. And Wilde did not fire him.
What Wilde thought, wrongly, was when months after this all happened and we all heard about abuse claims against Shia. She thought she could get some attention for her film by simply saying she fired Shia because she was this woke Director who protects her cast. It backfired because she didn't realize Shia kept the texts and video messages and that Florence wouldn't back her bullsh1t story.

My honest point of view is that Olivia is not gonna be able to recover from this. The way she tried to portray herself as this "protector" and then called Florence a brat behind her back? Come on girl.
Well, Florence told Olivia that she was uncomfortable working with Shia and he was arrested for petty theft and battery 1 months after he was out of DWD in 10/21.
@@imaretromillenial1990 if he was arrested shortly after isn't it even worse that olivia begged him to come back?
It's so great the way most of this comment section supports a guy with a known history of violence and other assorted shenanigans, but Olivia Wilde "is not gonna be able to recover" from a relatively unimportant professional dispute. No double standards or misogyny involved at all! 🙄 People really cannot wait to tear women down over minor infractions while ignoring, or even championing, men like Laboef. Just gross.

Would it really be that surprising? Boxers and MMA fighters talk trash about each other all the time, but at the end of the fight they hug and say all that trash talk was just to promote the fight.

In fact, the DRAMA is far bigger than everyone is saying!
I just came here to say something about Olivia Wilde. Decided she’s not worth the effort after listening to her. Great job Stephen cutting through her BS.
She didn't fire him, he didn't make Florence uncomfortable and she's trying to capitalise on the idea that she did fire him because he made Florence uncomfortable. I don't know why she keeps digging this ditch.
Olivia did fire him because he gave her an ultimatum. She asked Florence about working with Shia and Florence told her that Shia made very uncomfortable, so Olivia chose Florence.
Shia brought the receipts... he wasn't fired
@@hcavill8144 they are literally leaked messages between shia and Florence that said otherwise. Florence never felt uncomfortable.
@@anna.specter Those messages between Shia and Florence were from 7/20, the video was from 8/19/20 which is when he gave Olivia the ultimatum to choose between him or Florence. They obviously were not getting along. Nice try.

@@hcavill8144 ok so are there any messages from Florence or anybody else that are saying that Florence was "uncomfortable" ??? Are there any kind of proof to support Olivia's claims??? Or is it just her giving interviews where "she set the record straight"??
Also , wasn't Warner Bros statement that Shia never got fired. (I thought that was interesting 😂 🤔)
No-one cares if she planned to fired him or something. The facts matter in these allegations.
There is nothing obvious in that film , i think we get that by now.

Of course she was going to, it would’ve been extremely awkward if she didn’t… I’m sure she had all of her non-answers rehearsed, because she initially said that she “fired“ Shia, only for Shia to produce a video of her practically begging him to come back and do the movie
@@OnlyAtJaMart that video was before Olivia called to fire Shia when he gave her the ultimatum to choose between him or Florence.
@@hcavill8144 …and you know this, how?
@@OnlyAtJaMart This was all clarified in the recent Vanity Fair interview. Shia backed off after it.
@@hcavill8144 how would Vanity Fair know? Because they got an interview with Olivia Wilde? …what would he “back off” from? He already released proof in the form of a video and e-mail correspondence. There is nothing left to “back off” from as he already proved that she was lying. She said she fired him, he released proof that was not true. Then she changed her version of the story after she was caught in a lie to make it look like it was just a matter of perspective. I believe video evidence over her word, or your belief in her word, whether it’s through a magazine, or a talk show. She has made it clear that she is a liar. Just like when she said she was “attacked” when Jason Sudeikis served her with custody papers. If roles were reversed and he left her for a younger pop star, and she served him paperwork, it would have been seen as an empowering move 🙄

@@lutesjay and why’s that?

Jesus, can you chill out? The only reason this is news is because ridiculous people like you get so worked up about it.

People have a hard time understanding that both can be true. Creative differences are common, and people try to resolve them. It really doesn't matter who arrives first at the conclusion that it won't work out; the other one was probably 90% there anyway.
But they can't termination and quiting are 2 different things. There's a legal definition. The way she dodged the question and the video of her asking him to stay makes me believe Shia in this case. Movie was decent
A mutual parting of ways is not a firing my friend. Telling the world that someone was fired makes it difficult to get work so it’s a word every employer knows to wield responsibly. In Hollywood you just call it “creative differences” and move along.
@@aronm5329 I noticed that too. “We had to replace him” is lingual gymnastics to avoid a lawsuit while still tricking fans that she’s sticking to her story. Firing has distinct legal meaning.
She made out like she fired him in that article. She didn’t. She could have easily said they agreed to part ways then but she was lying and she got found out
People want an answer because they want to know if she begged the alleged sexual abuser to stay or if she fired him when he got problematic. It's not semantic. It's a representation of her character.
Those released private messages and videos did have context.
I like the harder questions. So tired of TV fluff.
Yes, but not every night. 3 years of Covid, half year of war, the beginning of world economic disaster, I need fluff shows to make me smile and laugh after the hard day.
People naturally dislike Wilde and anything associated with her.
Damn she really thinks she can just will that video into no longer existing
in many ways, it's very similar to how Trump operates (and oftern gets called on): simply denies or refuses to acknowledge the existence of a material fact, and ultimately, where can you go with that.. OW is essentially acting in the same way, but people in the media (for some reason unbeknown to me) are less willing to challenge her, than they are someone like trump. Of course there will be people out there outraged at the comparison but they operate in the same way!
wake up call for Ms Flo?? Are we not addressing that???
Of course not. The hosts a clown
I still didn’t understand what she meant by that? Could someone explain
Maybe she did or said something nasty. Who knows. Obviously shia would understand what she meant or she wouldnt have said it. Dont think it matters anymore.
Miss Flo is a great director too
💀
Why do they call her “Miss Flo”?
@@i.1213 cause Olivia was being condescending towards Florence in her Video to Shia LaBeouf about coming back to work on the film. And she said Miss flo in it.

Yes, I hate pile-ons but this was at best “a mutual parting of ways”. It’s so wrong of her to ever have called it a firing. Why even mention his name to start with? And how does Florence feel about her name being used in such a self righteous way by her director who is supposed to hold conflict in confidence?
Mis Pugh wouldnt come to meet with Shia to rehearse. So he quit.
How is that quitting? He said to choose him or her, they chose her sounds like he fired himself. Again, you don't give your boss ultimatums, we all know how abusive he was to women is anyone surprised?

What annoys me most is Harry was casted. Makes it clear that a director was pressured to find a replacement ASAP. Indicative that Shia was willing to leave and did. Lame move in my opinion. Pugh must have been glad that whole project was over.
It was disingenuous for her to say he was fired, end of story period. I would respect her more if she would give a full apology and explain herself honestly.
Why would she apologize lol? And to who? You?
She didn't say fired, the person who wrote the interview did.
Who cares at the end of the day.
I've never heard of her.
I think that was for the better.
Technically, she did not have to fire him. It was clearly mutual.
also, there is so much context people usually don’t see.
So Shia did quit, that's what i'm getting from this and she was lying about firing him. But now she's trying not to pull an amber heard bc she knows she can be sued for defamation.
If you go to your boss at the mall, and you say, "I demand things go my way!" And your boss says, "There's the door," then it's at the very least mutual.
Strong Amber Heard vibes.
Shia gave you an ultimatum and left... you can't say you fired him 🙄
In her defense colbert was trying to make her say she fired him she was trying to put it out there he left on his own
Yes she wanted a lion tamer .He said "I don't work with lions". So I guess he quit before she obviously would have fired him. He jumped before he was pushed
She’s probably not wrong. Contractually you normally can’t just quit a movie because you don’t like it…you need to be “let go” from your contract…so he wanted out, they let him…which on paper can look like he was fired even though he wanted to be.
Stop. This is delusional pretzelling of actual events.
@@eddiek8179 as she said. its semantics. both sides can believe they are right.
@@rui5421 Both can believe that they're right but only one is actually right and in this particular case, it's objectively true that she lied. There is no semantics here except those who are in the business spinning information.
@@eddiek8179 what she said is most likely by the legal layout, correct. He wanted out, so they released him from his contract.. She tried to mediate, it didn't work. There was no way that forcing him to stay on his contract would work for the production. He wanted to quit SO they let him go. I don't know why people are so obsessed with making her out to be a liar when the truth of this all is so mundane and happens ALL THE TIME.z
If you're looking for the objective legal truth. He was let go from his contract.
@@rui5421 You're speculating and not following any of the objective facts supported by video or texts. So just because people actually follow her actual words and have concluded correctly that she lied, you accuse them of being obsessed with making her liar because somehow the truth is not relevant enough for you. The same ca be said about you except you're trying to make her innocent. You're trying to deal with semantics when there is none. You're the person they call for spin doctoring for political issues.
Damn!! I love class the Mr. Colbert exudes!!!
Colbert is so eloquently spoken. I myself didn't care for the film and maybe he did or did not but he managed to be polite nonetheless
I listened to Jordon Peterson and Olivia Wild. Olivia is disingenuous and a liar. I think her career is going take after what she said about Peterson. It's easy to look up what each person said. Olivia has issues going on.
All this attention just proves that the clever marketing of the natural human drama happening during a production is pure gold. Makes me really question it's legitimacy.
He gave her an ultimatum, she made the choice to keep Florence which means letting Shia go (firing him). To him it didn't felt like he was fired because he's the one who came up with those conditions in the first place. Therefore if she wouldn't accept his conditions he wouldn't want to be in the film.
From Olivias perspective, it looks like her making a choice that doesn't align with one of her actors wishes therefore meaning that Shia cant be a part of her movie anymore.
From Shias perspective it looks like his director was not accepting his wishes what means he didn't want to be a part of her movie.
It's not like she called him to "her office" and said you're fired and neither did he went to her office saying I quit.
I don't think anyone is wrong in the situation, it's just perspective.
And the viral video in my opinion is just her trying to keep both parties Involved in the movie and telling Shia she is trying to meet his conditions. Probably trying to keep Shia in the movie by convincing Florence to agree to more rehearsels. Once it was clear that would not be possible, she decided to recast someone for who that would not be an issue. The video does not prove what she is saying wrong in my opinion.
The voice of reason
In the entertainment industry, there’s nothing new about a prospective employer not accepting an actor’s proposed conditions on accepting a role. What’s new here is that she’s interpreting that scenario as “firing“ the individual. His view is normal, her’s isn’t. That’s why she’s under scrutiny.
I think the problem was more the way she presented like it was best to let go of Shia because he made the team uncomfortable like he made the work environtment unhealthy . Hence making her look like some kind of hero when the situation was probably not that conplex. Just two sides whose expectations couldn't met so chose to not work together.
i think that private conversation is just her trying to plead with shia and telling him what he wants to hear.
then the ultimatum was given and eventually she chose florence.. since shia wouldn't want to deal with it.
Then she would just say that she did fire him after trying to work it out. People would understand that.
You obviously didn't see the texts made by Shia to Florence where he said he would exit the film the next day. Clearly that isn't a director firing someone. Firing someone and someone leaving are TWO different things.
Yeah he quit, she didn't fire him
Yes she wanted a lion tamer .He said "I don't work with lions". So I guess he quit before she obviously would have fired him. He jumped before he was pushed
did you watch the video ?
Semantics? We're always up for some antics.
Oh, you.
I have not heard that one! Nice.
Harry Styles is obviously blinded by love and thinks all those who want to warn him about OW are jealous 😂. But it's mainly his loyal fans who watch the movie....
Hopefully he will wake up soon and not destroy his good reputation at the side of this narcissistic woman.
This woman thinks that she is a genius. The fact that she called Jordan Peterson a "pseudo-intellectual" hero, when we all know that he is an educated and open-minded person who wants to help people, tells a lot about her character. She is just a toxic feminist who thinks that she is oppressed. As a woman I feel embarrassed.
Why is she reminding me on Amber Heard!
Booksmart was funny AF
♥ Booksmart!
Colbert hits hard! She should've went on Fallon and he would have just tussled her hair 😁
I’ve heard that the drama off screen is actually better than the actual film …
That’s exactly what Nick Krule wanted. Believe me, the drama outside is not better.
The behind the scenes drama would NEVER get this kind of attention if it was a male director. I said what I said. Can’t wait to watch the movie!
Ofc it wouldn't, but even if it was mentioned in a interview, like this one here, you wouldn't see the comments from incels hating on Olivia, as we can see here.
Stephen asks tough questions when they need to be clarified to any guest on his show, male or female. Hiding behind the gender thing is not cool and forces him into a bad guy role. We all know Stephen is a huge proponent of equality and women's rights.
As he explains in the second part of this interview, there is a hunger for this information out there and he's just the messenger. But if you like awkward elephants in the room that are not addressed, then go you?
The Irony is Olivia attacks Jordan Peterson for his masculinity whilst dating a man who wears skirts and carries a handbag.......you can't make this shit up 😆
The irony is that she attacks him for "misogyny" when she does everything misogynistic men are accused of doing (cheating on spouse who takes care of the kids while you're gone, uses power and influence over underlings to have relations with them, lies and gaslights to make themselves look better, etc.)
It's almost like being a good person is what matters, not whether you're a man or woman...
U sure she wasn’t talking about toxic masculinity?
There are people who are brilliant at their job but don’t fit into a particular workplace. It’s more adult to part ways rather than stay and antagonise each other.
Creative differences happen all the time and this quitting/firing should never have been put to the public. She turned it into a circus by ever mentioning him but hopefully they patch things up……
LaBeouf and Pugh should just do a movie together. It would be ultimate the response. Also, it would be a great movie.
Did you fire Shia Labour? A. No he left. B. Yes I did. Which one?????
if somebody is quiting can we firm him??😂😂😂
JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION! Did you fire Shia LaBeouf? Yes or no… Olivia Wilde?🤔 Stop dancing around the question. You obviously KNOW you DID NOT fire him, hence the email that came out that he sent to you.
For God's sake, she will never clearly say - "I lied" - we all know she did, so let it go already. I do hope Shia gets to work again, he seems to have turned his life for the better and deserves a chance to continue his movie career.
Completely agree with you
Shia is a known abuser. He will never change. I don't support abusers and am glad he wasn't in the movie.
@@Ada-tv7zl who the hell said Shia was an abuser,your a misandrist
Did she fire LaBeouf? There's a video recording of Olivia Wilde begging and pleading with Shia LaBeouf to come back to the film. Facts are stubborn things.
4:15 so wait, even when someone has receipts and they prove you’re a lying narcissist, “it’s all taken out of context”
It’s hilarious watching Colbert try to break down the double talk.
She honestly should get into politics because she filled this segment with words that had nothing to do with the questions.
"Did you fire?" "We had to replace" later "Then you said you're fired" "Then I said that's great you go" and even later the telling "He didn't want to". This would have been such a non-story if she hadn't come out with the initial PR-based lie. Enough casting changes happen in filming normally as to be just a minor story, it was the lying and then wondering about the mystery, the 'why' of the lying, that makes people more interested.
Nah she’s gaslighting us. We All saw the video and we know the difference between firing and quitting
The phrase poisonous atmosphere comes to mind. And btw- it doesn't happen all the time.
OW beating around the bush and gaslighting is clear indication of her lying of the matter. OW should just own up to it and say either 'yes, i actually fired him' or 'no, I didn't fire him he walked away as he said. Maybe I should have clarified things up early on so the confusion don't get to this level. Honesty is the best thing. Her being honest will only lead to us loving and supporting her more. Hope she learns that.
Did you even listen to the interview? she technically did fire him, but at the same time he said he would go as it was him or Florence and Olivia Wilde chose Florence. So...they are both right. Shia can say he left on his own term and Olivia isn't wrong when she says she fired Shia...
it's DOUBLE bad:
we all hate a liar....and a BAD liar.......
....but liars are also COWARDS.....so we resent that cowardice.
Why agree to discuss a topic if you are going to dodge every question?
In a word..
This interview is America 2022
That's 5. But I get your point.
AgreeA
Skirting around a very direct question is indeed an art form.
@@jasonandlynnechambers3420 the word Is america . But because I didnt put quotations over it
It obviously went over your head .. so yeah. Here we are. You agreeing . But nitpicking over grammar.. in a world of auto correct and tiny touch screen keyboards.. yes.. here we are.
