A thirtysomething tattoo artist who has undergone multiple body-mutilating surgeries to transform himself into a “black alien” laments that he has been “barred from restaurants” and has trouble securing employment because of his terrifying appearance.
Despite this, Anthony Loffredo says he’s only 46 percent complete with his radical metamorphosis, which he has coined the “Black Alien Project.”
“If I want to eat at a restaurant, sometimes the server says I can’t eat on the terrace,” Loffredo told LADbible this month.
It’s probably because he looks downright scary after changing almost his entire body, including the following:
• Removed both his ears.
• Cut off his nostrils and lips.
• Amputated two of his fingers.
• Split his tongue.
• Sharpened and dyed his teeth purple.
• Tattooed his entire body and face — including his eyes.

The tragic irony is that pre-mutilation, Loffredo was a fit, good-looking guy.
He’s still buff and appears to work out regularly, but his face looks absolutely demonic and nightmarish.

The “Black Alien” has been described in news reports as a “Frenchman,” but he appears to be a native Spanish speaker and currently lives in Mexico, according to his Twitter account.
Loffredo, who was born in 1988, says he began his radical transformation at age 27 but has always questioned why he has to be human.
“I started when I was 27 years old,” he told LADbible.

Despite his alarming appearance, Loffredo insists he’s just a regular guy with a normal life.
Tellingly, he identifies with transgender individuals who mutilate their bodies because, like them, he says feels different on the inside than he looks on the outside.
