The ‘Peanut Butter Falcon’ star, Shia LaBeouf, was recently spotted at the Covid-19 testing center. Although the video of the actor getting tested for the novel coronavirus has garnered a decent amount of attention on the Internet, it isn’t him that’s trending on Twitter, but another person whose moniker he mentioned more than once. 

On Tuesday, August 11, an unfamiliar name, Yesenia, started trending on Twitter leaving many confused over who it was or what’s the significance of the same. However, it didn’t take long for the Twitterati to find the person as it was LeBeouf who mentioned her. The clip from the center shows the actor standing for his turn to be tested. The person who was conducting the test first asks for his name. After responding, LeBeouf asks for the frontline worker’s name when she replies saying  Yesenia, he comments, “Yesenia, good name,” and proceeds with the test.

Once the sample was collected using a swab, the actor leaves saying, “You’ve got a sweet touch. What are you talking about? Thank you Yesenia.” Ever since LeBeouf said her name, Twitter users couldn’t stop discussing who she was and why she was trending. Fans in large numbers surfaced on the social media site and said how they wished they were in place of Yesenia. One fan wrote, "Can we all agree that we want to be Yesenia so f**king bad right now?"



 

Another wrote, "I never wanted to be Yesenia so badly in my whole life."



 

Meanwhile, many aren't able to stop talking about how the actor said Yesenia had a "sweet touch". One fans wrote, "SHE GOT THAT SWEET TOUCH WHAT ARE YALL TALKING ABOUT??? DONT PLAY WITH YESENIA LIKE THAT!!!!!", while another added, "he said YA GOT A SWEET TOUCH..I wanna be yesenia sooo bad."



 



 

LeBeouf has also been in the news following the release of his latest crime thriller movie, 'The Tax Collector'. Helmed by David Ayer, the movie premiered on Friday, August 7. It also co-stars Bobby Soto. Earlier this year, the movie was criticized for allegedly showing LeBoeuf wearing a "brownface" to suit his Latino character despite being White. However, the director refuted the claims and confirmed that the actor was playing a whiteboy who grew up in the hood. "This is a Jewish dude playing a white character. Also the only white dude in the movie," he stated further. 

On the personal front, LeBeouf made headlines a few months ago when he was spotted with Mia Goth, even after filing for divorce in 2018. A few pictures shared by US Weekly showed the couple cycling while wearing their wedding rings. The reports suggested that they were back together again. Following his split from Goth, the actor was rumored to be dating Disney star and 'Home With You' singer, FKA Twigs. The duo reportedly met on the sets of 'Honey Boy' but called their relationship off in June 2019 after dating for nine months. It remains to be seen if LeBeouf is officially back with Goth and whether they are going to take the relationship forward.
