Justin Theroux break dances for Ellen DeGeneres, all thanks to Jennifer Aniston (Video)

Justin Theroux appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Wednesday to promote his new film, Wanderlust, which also stars his girlfriend, Jennifer Aniston.

The 40-year-old actor, before Wanderlust and Jennifer Aniston, was known for his roles in such films as Zoolander, where he showed off his break dancing skills.

When Theroux appeared on Ellen, he told her that ever since Jennifer Aniston saw the film, she’s been trying to get him to break dance.

“She’s been obsessed with making me break dance, like, literally obsessed,” he said. “She’s been saying, 'when are you gonna break dance. I need you to break dance.'”

He added he tried to come up with an excuse for why he couldn’t dance, but Aniston never let him off easy.

“I invented this thing where I have a pair of shoes, my breakin’ shoes, and if I don’t have my breakin’ shoes, I can’t break dance,” Theroux explained. “We got home that night and she, literally, came out with a pair of shoes, my actual breakin’ shoes. She said put on the shoes. Break dance.”

Little did Theroux know, Ellen was going to have him break dance for her, too. She informed him that Jennifer sent over his “breakin’ shoes,” which are a pair of black and gold Nikes.
