Sia: Shia LaBeouf is a “Pathological Liar” Who “Conned Me Into an Adulterous Relationship”
Sia says she too was “hurt emotionally” by Shia LaBeouf, who she describes as “a pathological liar, who conned me into an adulterous relationship claiming to be single.” “I believe he’s very sick and have compassion for him AND his victims,” the Australian singer added in a tweet posted on Saturday evening. “Just know, if you love yourself- stay safe, stay away.” LaBeouf starred in Sia’s 2015 music video for “Elastic Heart”.
