Photos: Chris Brown ridiculed for saying Ebola is 'population control'

At first, it was super model, Naomi Campbell calling Malala (Yousafzai) 'malaria' and now Chris Brown thinks this of Ebola???

R&B singer Chris Brown has been ridiculed for a bizarre outburst on Twitter in which he claimed the killer Ebola virus is a 'form of population control'.

The outspoken artist tweeted his thoughts on the epidemic, which has killed more than 4,000 people in West Africa as well as one person in the U.S.

Brown wrote: 'I don't know ... But I think this Ebola epidemic is a form of population control. S*** is getting crazy bruh.' 

Three minutes after the tweet, following ridicule from some of his 13.6 million followers, he backtracked and said: 'Let me shut my black a** up!'

His first post received nearly 9,500 retweets and has not been deleted by the singer.

It did not take long for people to latch on to Brown's tweet, with dozens of people criticising his odd conspiracy theory. 

Comedian Warren Holstein tweeted: 'Chris Brown tweeted that Ebola is "a form of population control." He should try it.'

Kevin Hildebrand said: 'Let's keep in mind that Chris Brown is a complete idiot, so his theory of Ebola is equal to a rant from a village idiot.'

Wayne Durham tweeted: 'The stupid gene is strong in Chris Brown.'

LMAO....Yeah, Breezy boo, maybe you should have just hushed!!!

I don't know ... But I think this Ebola epidemic is a form of population control. Shit is getting crazy bruh.
