Shia LaBeouf Net Worth: “Cabaret” Arrest Story Is Not The Only One He Has To Tell

Shia LaBeouf Net Worth - The 28 year-old actor is a true character. The Whole story about how he became actor in the first place, together with his audition for "Even Stevens" and lately how he got arrested, show that he is indeed a man of stories.

Shia LaBeouf's net worth is of an estimated amount of $25 million dollars, according to The Richest. Still, he didn't always have money and as a matter of fact, he started to act in order to support his family.

Shia LaBeouf's father was a Cajun and he had a series of odd jobs such as a circus clown, a sno-cone salesman, and a stand-up comic. It would happen some years later that only at the age of 10 approximately Shia would end up doing the same.

Apparently, Shia heard about a friend of his who was acting in "Dr. Quinn" that he carried a luxury life after having a part in the series. Shia thought at that moment that acting was the answer to having money.

He called an agent that he looked in the Yellow Pages and pretended to be a 50 year-old manager from England who sold LaBeouf as the next big thing. The agent knew it was a kid calling, but it seems like she hadn't been approached that way before.

Later on, she called him and he did an act for her as he was already doing stand-up comedy in LA clubs. She got won over by his act after that.

"A couple of weeks later, I booked 'ER', then 'The X-Files' and 'Suddenly Susan'," the actor shared in an interview with LA Times.

He went to audition for "Even Stevens" in 2000 and apparently, told all the other kids that he had already gotten the part and in that way, he got rid of the competition.

He got the part and that was his first memorable role. After that, Shia LaBeouf appeared in big blockbuster movies such as: "I, Robot" (2004), "Disturbia" (2007), "Transformers" (2007) and all its series, and "Wall Street 2," among many others.

Shia LaBeouf went with his ambition to become one of the most well-known actors of his generation now.

In June, he got arrested after a night out in a "Cabaret" show and this week, he went to Jimmy Kimmel and joked about it, creating an entire tale that Huffington Post mentioned as "ridiculous" and "hilarious."

It does look like Shia LaBeouf will always remain the same in many ways. His net worth might grow, but his old sense humor won't dissipate.
