This isn’t confirmed, so please take it as hearsay until it is, but the JamShip website has mentioned Shia’s name along with a short list of other celebrities which means that even though it’s not official news it is possible that Shia will be participating in this better-than-twitter subscription service (costs about $5 a month). Here’s what the website has to say:

Fans who wish to receive calls from a JamShip celebrity partner will pay a small subscription service fee through the JamShip website every month. This allows a celebrity to receive a steady revenue from subscribers in addition to strengthening his/her fanbase.

Using a recorded message from a celebrity, fans will get a unique phone call with up-to-the-minute news every week. A Lakers fan can get a call from Kobe after the game, John Mayer can give exclusive info on his next album, and Shia LaBeouf can give behind-the-scenes gossip on the set of his latest film. JamShip can even program the consumer’s caller ID to display the celebrity’s name in most cases. In addition, JamShip can incorporate a “press 1″ campaign into the call that will transfer fans to operators ready to take orders for tickets, albums, DVDs, clothing, or other products.

Remember, unless it’s confirmed by Shia or his people it should not be considered true. Once we know for sure we’ll make sure to post something about it. Thanks to Margot for the tip!

You know, it’s probably just an example. Probably not a great idea on the part of the marketing people, but I think you’re reading too much into it

“Ned”, I see what you’re saying but we did go out of our way to stress that it’s unconfirmed. I think you’re reading too much into our post to be honest, lol. I don’t think anyone @ SLO thinks Shia’s going to do this, the man won’t even make a public Twitter account available for his fans and, to be honest, I don’t really blame him. But it’s not gossip and it’s a possibility so it has to be reported as being possible. Try not to take these things so seriously.
