Those crazy folks at Star magazine are reporting that Shia LaBeouf will have to have his pinky finger on his left hand amputated. Shia crushed his left hand when he flipped his truck on July 27 while driving drunk.

Doctors have told the 22-year-old Transformers star that he is likely to lose the pinky finger on his left hand.

“Shia called producers yesterday and told them,” the source on the set of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen in Alamogordo, N.M. says. “It’s really thrown the movie into turmoil.”

I’m filing this one under ‘Star magazine just makes things up for fun’. I don’t believe this for a minute. But if it is true, maybe those movie-dudes that make all that cool Transformers stuff can make him a bionic pinky!

Shia LaBeouf’s boss says that he was not drunk when he flipped his big old truck earlier this week. Michael Bay, director of ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen‘ is trying to get some good spin going for his boy. In an interview with Access Hollywood that will air August 1^st, Bay claims that his best money-maker was not under the influence at the time of the crash.

“You’re gonna see – that’s gonna go away,” Bay said. “That’s fresh news… He was not drunk. He was drinking hours and hours before.”

Bay goes on to say that the DUI charges will soon be dropped, all will be good, people will love Shia again and he will continue to make millions.
