Millie Bobby Brown proved to be a dedicated pupil of the Clark Kent school of disguise when she attempted to go incognito in front of paparazzi in Italy.

Photographers caught the Stranger Things star roaming Milan with her fiancé, Jake Bongiovi last week and the couple seemed amused by the attention they were receiving.

But looking more closely, it seems Millie and her beau may have been cooking up a scheme.

Just look at her face here ― her expression clearly communicates that hijinks are afoot.

And indeed, a shenanigan was in the works — because later that day, Millie was spotted again, in the same outfit and holding hands with Jake, with a new accessory that camouflaged her identity even more than a wig and a surgical mask made it impossible to recognise the Joker in The Dark Knight.

That’s right: Millie appears to have drawn a face on a box, put it over her head and proceeded to walk around like she had pulled off some master act of trickery.

But hey, bonus points for matching the shade of the box perfectly to her lavender ensemble.

Clearly, the get-up was a joke. Jake was photographed laughing at her ridiculous disguise, while Millie waved to paparazzi, emphasising that the two were just being goofballs.

When photos of Millie’s silliness made their way to Twitter, fans couldn’t help but crack jokes.

Many compared the Enola Holmes star to Shia LaBeouf, who showed up to a 2014 premiere with a bag over his head that read “I am not famous anymore”.

Others felt Brown’s disguise had hints of Taylor Swift’s heroic efforts to thwart paparazzi, which have included walking sideways with her back to photographers and an allegation that she was once carried from her New York apartment to a car in a large suitcase...
