Ben Afflect's back tattoo is real and kinda hideous...

Ben Affleck's back is completely covered with a colorful phoenix and it's HUGE! Apparently he has been saying his tattoo was fake for two years but he was caught shirtless on the beach in Hawaii filming a new film called 'Triple Frontier'...  "[It’s] fake for a movie,” Affleck told Extra’s Mario Lopez. “I actually do have a number of tattoos but I try to have them in places where you don’t have to do a lot of cover up they get sort of addictive, tattoos, after awhile.”
