PHOTO: 'Dead' Chris Brown Picture Emerges

Chris Brown is the latest star to pretend to be 'dead' in a Twitter picture, just a few days after Alexa Chung posted a picture from her 'deathbed', the R&B star has posted a picture on his page showing himself as 'Road KiLL'.

The 'Yeah 3x' star can be seen lying shirtless on the street next to a flashy sports car. Is this the new version of 'planking'? If it is it's pretty sick.

Some of Brown's fans thought it was "sexy", we're not quite sure how, others have thought his prank was amusing. "lol you're so silly," one wrote.

While a distressed fan tweeted the star: "DONT DIE PLEASE".

Last week model Alexa Chung tweeted a picture with the caption "death bed", and worryingly her fans were messaging the star as if it was normal with one "wishing" that they will look as good on their death bed.

Before this starts a trend on Twitter. Chris Brown is not dead. The singer continued to tweet throughout the night, promoting his new album 'Fortune' which is set for a July release in the US.
