FKA Twigs and Shia LaBeouf settle their dispute after a judge rules that their nondisclosure agreement (NDA) is terminated and void. Multiple outlets report that the singer had filed a lawsuit claiming LaBeouf sought money based on an alleged violation of a prior settlement agreement between the two.
The cases described across outlets present the core disagreement as whether the NDA prevents Twigs from speaking. Billboard and an RSS news report say Twigs argues the NDA functions as an illegal gag agreement that would silence her about her own experience, including allegations relating to sexual assault. Rolling Stone and the Hollywood Reporter also frame Twigs’ legal position as seeking to end or invalidate the NDA. Separately, the Hollywood Reporter notes that Twigs’ lawsuit arises in the context of LaBeouf’s allegations tied to the earlier settlement resolving sexual battery and abuse claims. After the judge’s ruling, the parties resolve the matter through settlement.
All sources agree that Twigs’ legal effort results in the NDA being treated as no longer enforceable.
