Anthony Loffredo has had his top lip, the tip of his nose, ears, and some fingers amputated
A man who has spent more than a decade transforming himself into the 'Black Alien' through dramatic surgeries and extreme tattooing has revealed he can't find a job as people "judge" him.
Frenchman Anthony Loffredo has become Instagram-famous through his body modifications, that began with piercings and ink, but soon led to him having extremities removed.
The 34-year-old has a is heavily tattooed, right down to his eyeballs, has a split tongue, dermal implants, and has had his top lip, the tip of his nose, ears, and even some
fingers removed.
In the process he's amassed 1.2m followers, but off the grid, not everyone is fan, it seems.
Speaking on an episode of the
Club 113 podcast, Loffredo said: “I can’t find a job, there’s lots of negative stuff. It could be positive because you feel better, but you have to know there’s also a dark side.”
Loffredo also spoke about what it’s like having strangers react to his appearance every day.

He explained: “It’s a fight everyday, because everyday you find new people who don’t understand, who want to judge.
“It’s life, not everyone understands everything. Like me, I don’t understand lots of things about lots of people.
“You can’t judge someone, no one knows what’s inside someone’s head, why they’re doing that, you need to talk with this person.”

To achieve his “project” of looking like an alien, Loffredo has gone to extremes, but insists under all the ink, he's just a "normal guy".
“I work, I have a family… I like being looked at like a normal guy with a job, with a family, who has a friend, girlfriend, all of that. That’s what makes me normal.”
