Loose lips Shia LaBeouf has struck once again. The 24-year-old actor—known for his shoot-from-the-hip candor—is spilling about the Transformers turmoil that got costar Megan Fox booted from the lucrative franchise.

LaBeouf tells the LA Times:

Megan developed this Spice Girl strength, this woman-empowerment [stuff] that made her feel awkward about her involvement with Michael, who some people think is a very lascivious filmmaker, the way he films women. Mike films women in a way that appeals to a 16-year-old sexuality. It’s summer. It’s Michael’s style.

And I think [Fox] never got comfortable with it. This is a girl who was taken from complete obscurity and placed in a sex-driven role in front of the whole world and told she was the sexiest woman in America. And she had a hard time accepting it.

When Mike would ask her to do specific things, there was no time for fluffy talk. We’re on the run. And the one thing Mike lacks is tact. There’s no time for [LaBeouf assumes a gentle voice] ‘I would like you to just arch your back 70 degrees.

Man, I remember when Bell Biv DeVoe inspired black people to stand up for their rights and riot on the streets. Now, the Spice Girls empowerment movement is making women want to be equals? I guess our forefathers were right. Pop music really is dangerous shit.

Transformers 3: Where the Fuck is Megan Fox arrives in theaters on July 1.
