Did Vince Vaughn try to win Jennifer Aniston back?


There’s a story in this week’s Life & Style, that Vince Vaughn tried to get Jennifer Aniston to take him back when he visited her house around the holidays.

OK! Magazine ran this same news that Vaughn visited Aniston on Christmas Eve and claimed that she just wanted to show him her new Beverly Hills home. I’m going with OK’s version.

Here’s what Life & Style said:

Early afternoon, Christmas Eve. Jennifer Aniston, in her Hollywood Hills home, was looking forward to dinner with friends at LA steak house Mastro’s. But when the bell rand and Jen opened the door, she found herself face-to-face with her ex-boyfriend Vince Vaughn. It had been a while. The couple had broken up in October during Jen’s visit to London, where Vince has been filming Fred Claus, and hadn’t seen each other since. “Jen was happy to see Vince,” says an insider. “She’s never stopped caring for him.”

But if Vince’s visit was a bit out of the blue (he’d decided to jet to L.A. during a break from filming) what he rold Jen once they sat down inside was really out of left field: He wanted a second chance. “He told Jen he’d do whatever it took to win her back,” the insider adds, “even give her the baby she wants.”

Jen was touched by Vince’s sincere offer but said she’d been doing some soul-searching of her own. “Jen told him, ‘I really care about you, but this is all just too little too late,” says the insider. “But she said she hoped they could stay friends.”

I really doubt any of this is true apart from the fact that Vaughn visited Aniston on Christmas eve and stayed for an hour and a half, which is news that must come from the paparazzi crouching outside her home.

OK!’s version of events is that Vince visited Jen and they’re not more than friends:

Jen ended 2006 on an upbeat note…

Just before Christmasn, former flame Vince Vaughn visited her new $15 million Beverly Hills home. “Jen adores the house and was thrilled for Vince to see it,” a friend of the actress tells OK!

Vince, who had been in London filming the upcoing comedy Fred Claus, had returned to Los Andeles on Dec. 23 and made visiting Jen one of his top priorities. “Jen does not have a history of remaining friends with her exes but she wants that with Vince,” says Jen’s pal. “Now they’re buddies who can run into each other without it being uncomfortable. Jen certainly doesn’t have that with Brad.”

What to believe? Well, Life & Style is also saying that Angelina is pregnant again, so I think OK! is more accurate. Neither of these stories seem to have actual quotes from anyone who is a friend of Jen’s or some kind of “insider,” but who knows?

Life &amp: Style story from Sammie’s Effluvia. OK! story from the magazine I was duped into buying by the fake cover story that Angelina is somehow feeling guilty for saying she wanted to meet with Jennifer Aniston, which I will cover shortly.

    I think they were such a wonderful couple but if a man does not want to have children and the woman does, then it is no good! It is such a waste because he is such a good looking man and Jen is the cutest girl in Hollywood and she doesn’t need to broadcast it She just is!!!!!! He can go on partying his whole life but he will never find another Jennifer and he will always regret it!!! So very sad!!!

    OK is also the mag that claimed after the official breakup that Vince desperately wanted to get married and Jen was the one saying no – that she returned from London happier than she’d ever been. After two weeks home she called him and said she was ready to get married and he said, NO WAY. What a bunch of crap that is. And, would you want to stay friends with him? NAAAAA.

    Both Us and Life&Style said Vaughn surprised her at her house in the Hollywood Hills. That picture is of the Hollywood Hills house area – I’ve seen other pictures there. The Bev Hills house is still under renovation. She does not live there.

    Good news is that 3 mags say they got together at Christmas and that they’re friends. HAPPY ENDING, so to speak.

    Maniston must be one sucky girlfriend wife. BP left her and Vince dissed her. Face it Chinnefer, you suck. I guess you’ll have to have a three way with CC and her crazy husband. Have fun!

    Want her back? I really doubt this! He’s probably thanking his lucky stars he dodged the bullet on this one!! This needy, self absorbed, obsessive lady is just sad. I used to LOVE her in her Friend days, but after reading her articles and listening to her endless whining I cant stop myself from cringing when I think of her. What a pathetic mess she’s turned out to be.

    JEN AND VINCE WERE A COUPLE OF SINGLE FRIENDS PRETENDING TO BE LOVERS FOR MOVIE PUBLICITY. THEY KISSED IN PUBLIC BUT STAYED IN SEPERATE ROOMS IN ALL THE HOTELS ETC…. THAT IS WHY THEY FINISHED FOR NO REASON. IT WAS A SHAM. WHEN SHE GETS MARRIED IT WILL ALL COME OUT

    I agree they were never a couple, it was to make people intertested in the film. There was no reason to end their lame publicity performance if it was a real relationship. It was obvious she was getting over a divorce and he just needed a pal. Nothing there. No chemistry in reality only in the performance for paparazzi.
