After undergoing extreme body modifications, Anthony Loffredo has amassed 1.3 million followers on Instagram.
But the man, who is also known as the Black Alien, has said that people “judge” him and it makes his everyday life quite difficult.
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 added that, “This type of change, it’s not just a tattoo, it’s something bigger.”
“It’s a fight every day, because every day you find new people who don’t understand, who want to judge.”

He even had two fingers, parts of his nose and both ears amputated

After getting his tongue modified so it is split down the middle to create a forked effect, Loffredo wanted to continue

“It’s life, not everyone understands everything. Like me, I don’t understand lots of things about lots of people,” he continued.
“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.”

So he is now planning to have his penis split in half too

Loffredo explained that people often have an “interesting” reaction to how he looks.
“I’m human,” the man who calls himself the Black Alien said. “There’s people who think I’m just crazy. There’s people, who when they see me, shout and run and many things.”

But he insisted that he doesn’t “like playing with people” and goes out of his way to try and make others feel comfortable around him.
“I think it’s dangerous to not try to do that,” Loffredo added.
“At night when I go past people in the street, I move to the other side.”

And the judgement comes not only from people in the street, but also prospective employers

“When I cross with people, like old people, I change sides in the street. Also with kids I’m careful. I know it can be a shock,” he added.
Loffredo highlighted that he just wants to be seen as a “normal” person, just like anyone else.
“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.”
