Vince Vaughn Talks Breakup, Promotes Fred Claus

They were all set to be the next Hollywood Royal Couple. And when Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn split up, onlookers were left wondering why.

In a recent interview, the “Dodgeball” actor got real about his decision to end his relationship with the “Friends” star. And it seems the same fame that got them together, also tore them apart.

Vince explained, “If you go out with someone famous, you’ll get a certain level of attention around you but it was never something I focused on. And ultimately I do the best I can - I make my movies, and that’s all you really can do. I’ve never done a lot of magazine covers. I don’t go to a lot of premieres. I don’t really cultivate that. For me I’ve always made the best movies I can make and then just walked away.”

And despite the failed romance, Vaughn insists that he still regards Aniston highly. “For me, if you like someone, you like someone. I think when we’re younger we all say, ‘I won’t date anyone like this or that.’ And then you always end up dating someone like that. Because that’s what love is. You can’t really pick from a logical place. Life is made up of all those little moments, so it’s nice if you have someone who you enjoy doing things with.”

Vaughn attended the premiere of his new film “Fred Claus,” which opens this Friday in theaters.
