FKA Twigs Is Refusing to Be Silenced by Shia LaBeouf, and Her New Lawsuit Explains the Shocking Reason Why
FKA Twigs challenges NDA terms under California's STAND Act to protect sexual violence survivors from being silenced, seeking a court ruling without pursuing monetary damages.
- On Wednesday, Tahliah Barnett—known as FKA Twigs—filed a complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court seeking to invalidate a nondisclosure agreement signed with actor Shia LaBeouf, asserting it violates California law.
- The complaint follows an arbitration demand LaBeouf filed in December 2025, claiming Barnett breached their settlement by telling The Hollywood Reporter she did not "feel safe" following their relationship.
- Barnett's lawyer, Mathew Rosengart, argues the NDA violates California's STAND Act, which prohibits confidentiality clauses in sexual assault cases, calling LaBeouf's enforcement efforts "frivolous" and "preposterous."
- Although LaBeouf agreed to drop his arbitration claims earlier this month, Barnett pursues this action to formally void the NDA, seeking no financial compensation in the case.
- Barnett states she files this action to "right a wrong," aiming to ensure other survivors of sexual and domestic violence are not silenced by agreements that violate public policy.
