Anthony Loffredo, a 34-year-old French man, has been in the news for a while due to his body modification journey to transform into a black alien.
Recently, the tattoo addict revealed he isn’t receiving the best reaction from society due to his decision, as restaurants won’t serve him food, and now cries for discrimination.
From a young age, Anthony was always passionate about mutations and the human body transformation. However, he still lived as a white French man until his twenties, when he realized he was born into a body he didn’t belong in.
So, Anthony quit his job as a security guard in France and moved to Australia. For the next few months, the black alien wannabe thought about his plans for body modification. He previously disclosed that he loved getting into the shoes of a scary character and would play such a role at night in the dark streets.
Some years later, Anthony began his body modification journey to transform into a black alien. He underwent some of the most extreme procedures, including removing his nostrils, ears, and fingers to make his hand look like a claw. He also tattooed his whole body, including his eyeballs.
Anthony didn’t stop at those as he underwent more procedures to achieve his desired look. According to reports, the man went under the knife to split his tongue in half and even had a hole cut through his skin below his lower lip.
The French man took things further when he had his tip lip removed. Anthony revealed the procedure affected his ability to speak properly, but he was not bothered as the effects didn’t dampen his enthusiasm for body modification.
Anthony’s decision to keep such details under wraps was because certain body modifications that resulted in injuries were illegal in some European countries.
Since Anthony began his transformation journey, he has received some support from the public. However, he has also been subjected to criticism from his social media followers and non-netizens.
Anthony recently appeared on a podcast Club 113 where he admitted that he gets a lot of “negative” reactions due to his unique looks. “There are people who, when they see me, shout and run. I am human but people think I am just crazy,” he 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,” he further said.
Anthony said he is aware of the fact that his appearance might startle people, so he tries to make people comfortable by “moving to side” while crossing people.
“It’s a fight everyday, because every day 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,” he explained.
The 34-year-old insisted he is simply a “normal guy” and wants to be treated like that…
