Shia LaBeouf has criticized how Hollywood treats fame as more important than art. In 2014, he showed his frustration by wearing a paper bag on his head at the Berlin Film Festival. It read, “I am not famous anymore.” LaBeouf said fame had made him feel trapped, especially as a child actor. He also criticized big-budget films, saying they care more about money than meaningful stories. His actions were controversial, but they got people talking about the struggles of being in the spotlight and the lack of focus on creativity in Hollywood.
