Shia LaBeouf Takes his Shaved Head to the Gym

Keeping up on his physical fitness regimen, Shia LaBeouf showed up at a local gym in Hollywood, California yesterday afternoon (December 11).

Sporting an electric blue t-shirt with black track pants, the ?Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen? hunk kept his head down as he headed inside after hitting up a coffee shop.

Meanwhile, Shia has made no secret of his decision to get into more serious acting gigs, and to that end he?ll star in the Broadway play ?Orphans.?

LaBeouf will work along with Alec Baldwin on the project, slated to begin preview performances on March 19th, 2013 at the Schoenfeld Theater before the April 7th opening night.

Lady Gaga Responds To Born This Way Topping 'Pretentious Albums' List

'Eye roll,' Gaga tweets after music mag NME blasts her latest LP.
By James Montgomery

<P>Earlier this week, British music mag NME

set out to determine the "10 Most Pretentious Albums Ever." The list includes (genuinely pretty terrible) conceptual fare like Kiss' <i>Music From "The Elder,"</i> Lou Reed's <i>Metal Machine Music</i> and, uh, Lady Gaga's <i>Born This Way,</i> which somehow bested all competitors to nab the #1 spot. </P><P> </P><P>How? Well, as <i>NME</i> writer Priya Elan wrote, "On <i>Born This Way,</i> [Gaga] seemed to believe in her own hype, convinced she had a message to share. Cue an album of unwieldy 'anthems' that couldn't mask the fact that the fun had left the building." Elan singled out the thumping "Schei&#223;e" as <I>BTW</i>'s most pretentious moment, adding, "Did electroclash die for this?" </P><P> </P><P>Snap. As you'd probably expect, those jabs had Gaga's Little Monsters on the offensive, and they launched an all-out attack on Elan in the comments section of <i>NME</i>'s website. But Gaga herself remained above the fray &#8212; for a while, anyway. </P><P> </P><P>On Thursday night, she took to her

href="https://twitter.com/#!/ladygaga/status/172828595134267392" target="_blank">Twitter account

to hit back at <i>NME,</i> a publication that's certainly been no stranger to charges of pretentiousness over the years. </P><P> </P><P>"Oh the irony of winning 'Most Pretentious Album Ever' from none other than NME. *Eye roll,*" Gaga wrote. "I might laugh forever [and] then return to narcissism." </P><P> </P><P>Double snap. Having sufficiently eye-rolled her way through the situation, there's been no further comment from Gaga about the list. </P><P> </P><P><I>NME,</i> of course, has since turned the exchange into a separate story, one which, for whatever reason (word count?), includes recent comments Gaga made about bulimia ... and spaghetti. *Eye roll.*</p>
