“This is a lose-lose right now”: Shia LaBeouf Wanted to Kiss Angelina Jolie But Started Fantasizing About Her Ex-Husband Instead
Many actors dream of sharing an on-screen kiss with the one and only Angelina Jolie, and Transformers actor Shia LaBeouf definitely tops the list.
He has expressed this wish in an interview, though there’s a bit of a catch in the experience.

LaBeouf also admitted that he usually develops feelings towards women he works with, as fans would remember he dated co-star Megan Fox while filming the 2007 monster hit film.
While some actresses were not ready to date, the actor contented himself with the idea that he still got to kiss them on set.Transformers’ Actor Shia LaBeouf Dreams Of Kissing Angelina Jolie

In an interview with Access Hollywood, Indiana Jones star Shia LaBeouf shared he would go crazy if he gets to lock lips with his biggest crush, Tomb Raider actress Angelina Jolie:
“I would lose my mind. In the back of your head, you [would be] thinking, ‘She’s gonna kiss me right now and then go home with Brad Pitt! This is a lose-lose right now.’”
The actor has never collaborated with Jolie yet despite revealing his dream in public. Interestingly enough, LaBeouf and Brad Pitt got to work together in 2014’s Fury. In another interview with GQ, the Eagle Eye star confessed he easily falls in love with his on-screen partners:
“Oh, I’ve been in love with every woman I’ve ever worked with, but some aren’t available, and then there’s the three-month attention span that actors have, you know I don’t know if it’s mutual, but I really don’t care. They have to kiss me when ‘action’ gets called, anyway, so I’ll get what I want.”
Dakota Johnson
LaBeouf has been intimate with several actresses on-screen, and who could be his best kiss? Many would assume it would be his ex-girlfriend Megan Fox after the Jennifer’s Body star admitted LaBeouf was her memorable on-screen kiss.
Appearing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show via People, the actor revealed Fifty Shades of Grey’s Dakota Johnson was his best kiss:
“Dakota Johnson! She’s a sweetheart.”
The duo starred in the 2019 indie comedy-drama The Peanut Butter Falcon. LaBeouf considers himself lucky as he gets paired with the loveliest women in Hollywood.
Shia LaBeouf’s Memorable First On-Screen Kisses
Meanwhile, the actor’s first movie kiss happened in The Battle of Shaker Height when he was only 15. Actress Amy Smart revealed it was an awkward scene because the young lad’s mother was also on the set. She told Showbiz Cheat Sheet:
“It was like a fun acting class. It felt like a big playground. All these new experiences. I know that I was his first on-screen kiss. And the fact that his mom had to be there, I think I was 25, and he was, I think, 15. So, it was just weird, but it was fine.”
Lucy Liu
Another unforgettable filming experience for LaBeouf when he was younger was working with Charlie’s Angels’ Lucy Liu.
He admitted to Playboy via NBC Washington that he could not get her out of his mind:
“Lucy Liu… would play with my mind. I was deep in puberty at this point. Hormones are flying off of me. I mean, what are you supposed to do? You’re 14, 15 years old, and you’ve got the f**king sexiest woman in the world sitting across from you.”
Shia LaBeouf was fortunate enough to work with some of the best and biggest actresses of this generation, and while some odds were never in his favor, the actor still feels grateful for the opportunity.
