Judging from this [past weekend](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/berlin-shia-labeouf-storms-nymphomaniac-678686), things don’t seem to be going that well for Shia LaBeouf. While in Berlin for the premiere of his new movie _Nymphomaniac: Volume 1_, LaBeouf appeared wearing a paper bag on his head after walking out of a press conference in which he answered only a single question.

According to [_The Hollywood Reporter_](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/berlin-shia-labeouf-storms-nymphomaniac-678686), LaBeouf walked the red carpet at the premiere of Lars Von Trier’s new movie with a brown paper bag on his head, with what appears to be his latest mantra scribbled across the front: “I’m not famous anymore.”

That was shortly after LaBeouf appeared at the conference with _Nymphomaniac_‘s other stars Christian Slater, Stacy Martin, Stellan Skarsgard and Uma Thurman. A few minutes into the panel, a reporter asked LaBeouf about the film’s many sex scenes.

“When the seagulls follow the trawler, it’s because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea,” answered LeBeouf, bizarrely quoting [French soccer player Eric Cantona](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHdgRufNSR8) from a press conference that took place almost 20 years ago, before standing up and abruptly walking out as the other actors sat there, stunned. After a quick joke by Slater—”Obviously, the script is packed with a lot of sardines”—the press conference continued as usual.

LaBeouf, who has recently been criticized for borrowing [heavily from other artists for his own films](http://entertainment.time.com/2013/12/17/shia-labeouf-sorry-for-not-crediting-daniel-clowes-in-new-film/), has also taken to tweeting both his apologies and some grand statements.
