Blueface Unveils Striking New Face Tattoos from Behind Bars in Viral Video

The rapper's mother expressed her disdain on social media.

Rapper Blueface, currently serving a four-year prison sentence for violating probation tied to a 2021 assault case, has made waves online with a bold new look. In a viral video shared from behind bars, the "Thotiana" hitmaker, whose real name is Johnathan Porter, debuted striking new face tattoos, reigniting conversations about his ever-controversial public persona.

The video showcases Blueface flaunting an array of fresh ink, transforming his face into what some social media users have described as a "school desk" or a "walking coloring book."

Blueface’s mother, Karlissa Saffold, voiced her disapproval in a publicly shared text message. “Your kids are suffering. Javaughn’s confidence has fallen, and you playing arts and crafts on your face is diabolical,” she wrote. Saffold also urged her son to prioritize his responsibilities as a father, imploring him to “pull yourself together.”

In addition to chastising him, Saffold also took to Instagram to deny claims that he and Chrisean Rock have gotten married, an allegation she claims was made by his aunt.

Blueface is currently serving a four-year prison sentence for violating his probation. This violation stems from a 2021 assault incident involving a security guard at a North Hollywood lounge.
