Mysterious boy: Peter Andre tries to go incognito in Australia as he is slammed for 'vile' Instagram post - and bizarrely uses a fake name at the dry cleaner
Peter Andre did his best to go incognito this week as he stepped out to run some errands on the Gold Coast.
The Mysterious Girl hitmaker, 52, is in Australia for the premiere of his first feature film, Jafaican, at the Gold Coast Film Festival.
Peter was spotted stepping out to drop off some dry cleaning ahead of the auspicious occasion.
Dressing casually for the outing, he wore a form-fitting white V-neck T-shirt that showed off the famous tribal-style ink on his bicep.
The Aussie-born singer also wore a pair of dark blue tapered jeans and a pair of white Nike sneakers.
Wanting to keep his identity under wraps as much as possible, Peter finished his ensemble with a blue New York Yankees baseball cap that was pulled down to his brow.

Peter looked all business as he made his way to a Southport dry cleaners to drop off some clothes, possibly his fit for the big premiere.
However, keeping the incognito theme going, Peter appeared to use a fake name at the dry cleaners, to avoid potential swooning from staff.
He was seen carrying his dry cleaning ticket that appeared to bear the name 'Dean Roberts'.
The singer certainly had no shortage of work for staff, walking into the shop with an array of jackets and shirts draped over his arm.
Peter's surreptitious outing comes as he was shamed on social media for taking a family trip to SeaWorld during a recent holiday in Abu Dhabi.
The reality star shared a snap of his children walking into animal theme park SeaWorld which was met with disapproval from animal lovers.
Alongside the post, he wrote: 'We had the best time at @yasisland exploring all the parks. So special to have the whole family together, there truly is something for everyone. We'll definitely be back!'
Unimpressed fans wrote: 'SeaWorld, definitely NOT a place for animal lovers'.

'Great photos until you showed SeaWorld, how sad'... 'Promoting cruel, unethical hell holes for animals, such as SeaWorld. Vile. Way to go @peterandre'.
'I'm so sad to see you visiting SeaWorld, the cruelty around these 'entertainment' parks are obvious and you could use your platform to help end the suffering endured by highly intelligent mammals. Very disappointing.'
'Definitely a no from me, poor sea creatures belong in their natural habitat.'
However some of Pete's followers were quick to praise the snaps, writing: 'Beautiful family; We were here in Feb... it was the best holiday
'Beautiful photos, looks like a great place to visit. Wonderful memories made with your family; It was such a great destination, we went last summer and loved it
'Home last Wednesday from my first visit to Abu Dhabi - had the best holiday - gutted I never saw you and your gorgeous family. Great photos.'
The Abu Dhabi Seaworld was the first in its history to be free of orcas, after the US-based park stopped breeding the whales in 2016, in the wake of growing backlash, and instead predominantly houses dolphins and seals.
The first killer whale was born in a SeaWorld park in 1985. Since then, 30 have been born in the parks, including the first-ever births through artificial insemination.

Peter also recently faced backlash after sharing the trailer for Jafaican.
The singer stars as Gary Buckle in the crime-comedy, a con artist pretending to be a Jamaican gangster.
Gary, also known as Gazza, must master Jamaican culture in 21 days in order to execute a fraud in London and Jamaica and earn the £35,000 he needs to pay for his grandmother's care.
The trailer made one fan question: 'Did I wake up in 1998?!'
'Peter Andre starring as the lead character of a film called JAFAICAN where he's pretending to be a Jamaican and wearing a dreadlock wig is not something I was expecting to see in the year of our Lord 2025 but here we are...'
'There's a movie coming out with Peter Andre in a dreadlock wig pretending to be Jamaican. Is this really what we're doing in 2025?,' another offered.
However the trailer didn't receive all negative comments after other social media users shared their excitement ahead of the film's release.
One excited fans penned: 'Peter that looks amazing can't wait to see this brilliant'; 'Oh yes!!!! looking forward to this @peterandre can't wait'.
'I wish I could have watched this being filmed'.
The world premiere of Jafaican kicks off on Friday night at the Gold Coast Film Festival, which runs until May 11.
