Shia Labeouf

What's new for Shia LeBeouf? The controversial star, who in recent months has claimed that he was raped during his art installation, conducted a silent interview and claimed all of it was simply because he was 'troubled', is now expanding his artistic horizons-with interpretative dancing.

The actor joins musician Sia, who recently released a single off her latest LP-1000 Forms of Fear, cited as one of Rolling Stone's 20 Best Pop Albums of 2014, in a music video where he is seen facing off against 12 year old dancer, Maggie Ziegler, in a steel cage.

Both appear as a feral couple trapped in a cage in the middle of a massive studio space and through interpretative dance, the two spar as they figure out a way out of it. While Ziegler's character manages to find her way out of it the cage, LeBeouf is left behind with Ziegler attempting to show him how to make his escape.

The song, entitled "Elastic Heart,' is directed by Sia and Daniel Askill. This is the second video following the acclaimed "Chandelier" video, which featured the young dancer as well.

The song not only became one of Rolling Stone's 50 Best Songs of the Year but was also recognized by Grammys with four nominations, including Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Music Video of the Year. It was also recognized by the MTV Video Music Awards, however it lost to Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball." Sia didn't go home completely empty handed however, as it managed to bring home the Moonman for best Choreography.
