LaBeouf Moves to Force FKA Twigs Into Private Arbitration Over 2025 NDA

The judge will decide whether California’s STAND Act lets Twigs void confidentiality and keep allegations in public court.

Overview

  • Shia LaBeouf asked the court on July 8 to enforce the 2025 settlement and compel private arbitration, saying FKA Twigs is trying to continue public attacks through new filings.
  • Twigs sued in March seeking a judicial finding that the settlement’s nondisclosure and non‑disparagement terms are unenforceable under California’s Stand Together Against Non‑Disclosure (STAND) Act.
  • The 2025 settlement included confidentiality and anti‑disparagement provisions that LaBeouf says bar public statements and require disputes to be resolved in private arbitration.
  • LaBeouf pointed to a October 2025 interview in The Hollywood Reporter and to what he called ‘inflammatory’ allegations as examples of Twigs violating the agreement.
  • A court decision will shape whether NDAs that touch on alleged sexual violence can be enforced in California and could affect survivors’ ability to speak publicly about abuse.
