The star was clad in a black pinstripe shirt and sported black nail varnish while holding on to a lit cigarette.
He used a filter called ‘I’m ok’, in order to give the illusion of having cuts on his nose and mouth.
Last month, Joey was forced to hit back at fans who expressed concern at his new slimmed-down appearance.

The reality star – who left The Only Way Is Essex seven months ago – said in a statement: ‘I am not your role model.
‘If I’m honest I’m not phased by the comments, I just want those who are about me to know I’m okay.
‘I don’t care about the comments simply because it’s hard to care for the opinions of people that know nothing about me, my diet, my metabolism or my medical history with my weight.
‘I’m a 20-year-old student, I’m not on TV. I’m a student like any other and I am not your role model, so if you want someone to look up to I suggest putting someone else on a pedestal because I am not him.’
Concerns: In recent weeks Joey has been showing off his staggering weight loss in a series of photos fans have branded ‘disturbing’
Comments: Over the past weeks, Joey’s social media followers have expressed their concern over his slim frame
Joey recently told The Sun: ‘I weigh seven and half stone, but I don’t weigh myself. I don’t care about how much I weigh. I am skinny, I can’t help that I am skinny. I am not going to apologise to anyone.’
Joey, who at 5ft 11ins has ‘always had a long, thin frame’, reaffirmed that there was nothing to worry about, seeing as he eats what he believes is a healthy diet.
During a typical day, Joey will enjoy a bowl of Special K, a salad for lunch and sushi for dinner. When out, he drinks vodka with water.
‘I don’t eat loads. I am not really a foodie, that’s not me being anorexic, I just don’t care to participate in gluttony,’ he remarked.
