Ryan Phillippe was spotted leaving Gym on Nemo in West Hollywood today, and the actor showed off some new ink.
At first glance it looked like a piece of a bald eagle, perhaps a nod to his soldier character in his upcoming war drama Stop Loss, however, at closer inspection the tatt is obviously that of a phoenix rising from the ashes.
The 33-year-old actor had been quoted saying he was physically distraught after his divorce from ex-wife Reese Witherspoon. Could the new ink symbolize him finding strength after reaching rock bottom?

he was probably on a drunk bender. it certainly won’t help his career.
Instead of the pathetic tattoo, maybe he should have thought twice before he cheated on this mother of his two children.
Just a thought.
Cool Ink.
I like it. It’s hot and he’s hot.
A tattoo is just a small skin billboard advertising how
incredibly dim you are.
It’s actually ‘Gym On Nemo’ … not gym nemo.
I don’t know if he can pull off that tatts too well. Maybe like the armband or something on his back but full arms…..not too sure.
Ugh. I am so over tattoos. Fucking celebrities and their dumb tats ruined them for me. I used to appreciate the artistically original or clever ones that some people have, but now I can’t stand to see them on anyone.
thanks, ugh! fixed it!
he is a tool!!!
Doesn’t this create issues for an actor? Don’t makeup artists get tired of trying to hide these things from the camera? It speaks of a less-than-full committment to one’s profession, doesn’t it?
