Camera-shy Leonardo DiCaprio was seen ducking his head and wiping his nose inside his Super Bowl suite ahead of the Chief’s sensational win on Sunday.
As the big screen panned to celebs awaiting the game, DiCaprio was barely recognizable as he wore a baseball hat covering his face and tugged on his nose.
The actor, 49, ducked his head towards the table when the camera came his way – as if he didn’t want to be spotted – before the broadcast turned to someone else.
His friends, sitting besides him, laughed as DiCaprio tried to deter the attention.

People online laughed at the hilarious situation. One person wrote: ‘They did him dirty for this,’ while another said: ‘Can’t anyone just have a booger these days.’
Another wrote: ‘Leo look up, you’re on camera,’ as a fourth said: ‘The cold indoor environment must have given him the sniffles.’
Meanwhile, DiCaprio’s presence at Sunday’s Super Bowl at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas also garnered a wisecrack on Nickelodeon’s SpongeBob SquarePants-themed stream for the big game.
The kid’s network had a special commentary stream featuring the voices of characters SpongeBob and Patrick Star as they watched the gridiron battle between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers.
At one point, the camera panned on the Oscar-winner, 49, who was seen at the game with pal Tobey Maguire, 48, when the ball was placed on the 25-yard line as result of a touchback.
