At first glance it looks like an old photo of screen legend Marilyn Monroe but on closer inspection something's not quite right.

Well, Marilyn wouldn't have worn such a cheap wig for starters.

Or been seen out with that handbag.

So who is it?

Step forward (and take a bow)... Lady Gaga.

Gaga posted the old snap of her in high school on her official Facebook page with the message: "Some things never change...here's a photo of me in high school in the school play (set that wig + did my own makeup!) ."

Yeah right Gaga - like you still do your own make-up, love.
