Australian singer Sia, best known for her Grammy nominated hit single "Chandelier," released the new official music video for her next song, "Elastic Heart," and it can now be seen on YouTube.

The video centers around Shia LaBeouf and "Chandelier's" Maddie Ziegler.

LaBeouf and Ziegler are put head-to-head in a sort of beautifully choreographed cage match. The video was directed by Sia herself and Daniel Askill, who also directed "Chandelier." It was choreographed by Ryan Heffington.

On Tuesday, January 6, Sia released a teaser for the video which revealed only Maddie Ziegler in a cage with a mysterious, supposedly naked figure, who later turned out to be Shia LaBeouf wearing a very small pair of raggedy shorts.

The Internet is already rife with thoughts and opinions.

TMZ put together "Shia LaBeouf's 10 Most Bizarre Moments" from the video.

Billboard magazine has an entertaining run down of what happens: "The entirety of the video features the surprising pair interpreting the song through various body contortions: they dance-fight, collapse in the middle of the cage, crawl toward and away from each other, and make some wildly fantastic facial expressions that Crazy Eyes from Orange Is The New Black would envy."

Perhaps promoting the new video is why Shia decided to return to Twitter? Before the new year, Empty Lighthouse reported on LaBeouf's return to Twitter after a brief hiatus.

LaBeouf also seems to be taking a brief hiatus from stage acting after he was arrested at his his Broadway show, Cabaret. He's pegged to premiere in the film Man Down as Gabriel Drummer this year.
