Anthony Loffredo had his nose and upper lip removed in an effort to look like a "black alien." Instagram
This wannabe alien has a face only a mother could love.
Anthony Loffredo, a 32-year-old Frenchman who wants to be a “black alien,” has gotten his nose removed in Spain, where it is legal to do so, the Mirror reports.
He also had his upper lip cut off and covered his entire body — including his eyeballs — in tattoos as part of his @the_black_alien_project on Instagram.
And in a reptilian twist, Loffredo also had his tongue split.
Speaking about his latest transformation, he did not reveal when he had the creative work done, or by whom, but said he now struggles to speak after the lip-removal operation.
The oddball plastic surgery aficionado said he now dreams of removing his skin and replacing it with metal, as well as modifying his arms, legs, fingers and the back of his head.
Despite his startling appearance, he says he has no problem attracting members of the opposite sex.
“Thank you to you @oscarmarquezbodymod you will have marked my life … now I can walk with my head high thanks to you I am proud of what we did together,” Loffredo wrote on Instagram about his drastic nose job.
In 2017, he told the French paper Midi Libre: “From a very young age, I have been passionate about mutations and transformations of the human body.
“I had a click when I was a security guard. I realized that I was not living my life the way I wanted. I stopped everything at 24 and left for Australia,” he told the outlet.
“I love getting into the shoes of a scary character. I often settle down somewhere and play a role, especially at night in the dark streets … I explore the contrast between the role I play and myself,” Loffredo added. [Reply]
I wonder what kind of health problems he'll have 10-15 years from now. Esp. with not being able to close his mouth. Seems like a wonderful way to get infected gums or something worse. I'd love to see a follow-up in a decade or so, if dude makes it that long. [Reply]

Left hand, though.
You can have a robot arm without removing your original one, though, and having a robot arm coming out of your sternum would be both stylish and useful.
We shouldn't limit ourselves to replacing original equipment. This black alien guy really screwed up with that thinking. Don't cut off part of your nose. Add two smaller noses below your eyes. And instead of cutting off part of your lip, add a longer muzzle that has a cut off lip. The black alien guy thinks he's being clever and original, but he's really just proving to me that he doesn't have much imagination. [Reply]

But Oh my. How could you hire him and be the face of the company.
Also-is this a form of blackface?
I once got a job resume from someone who gave me both his birth name and his "performing name". He had some other weird stuff on his resume, so I googled him out of curiosity and he was definitely going for the circus freakshow look. I assume that his resume was just an unemployment scam because he didn't even approach any of the qualifications that we require. He did not survive the first round of resume screenings so I didn't get to interview him. [Reply]
