blatantness
Shameless lack of subtlety
Blatantness is the quality of being completely obvious and unashamed, especially regarding something objectionable.
It emphasizes brazenness rather than mere visibility: The blatantness of the lie shocked everyone.
Where subtlety conceals, blatantness flaunts.
