Kanye West celebrated his dad beating cancer in a very odd way

Kanye West told his millions of fans on Tuesday that his dad had beaten cancer.

In an odd post, even by Kanye’s standards, he added they were going to celebrate the news by eating a plate of bugs.

The picture shows a plate of more than a dozen fried insects.

"Overcome fear," the rapper wrote.

"My dad and I are going to eat this plate of bugs to celebrate him beating cancer. No more fear."

"Kanye you are bugged out," was one of his follower’s responses.

"Now you’re REALLY buggin, my guy," said a second, while a third added, "I don’t think that’s how celebrations work."

The post comes following a week of eyebrow-raising behaviour from the dad-of-three.

Over the weekend, Kanye posted a string of tweets criticising the 13th Amendment which abolished slavery.

He initially called for Abraham Lincoln’s bill to be abolished before clarifying he would instead like to see it "amended".

After posting a photo Twitter of him in a pro-Trump ‘Make America Great Again’ hat, he wrote: “This represents good and America becoming whole again. We will no longer outsource to other countries. We build factories here in America and create jobs. We will provide jobs for all who are free from prisons as we abolish the 13th amendment. Message sent with love".

He continued to tweet and said the 13th Amendment was "slavery in disguise" and that "it never ended" before saying he doesn’t wish to abolish it but amend it.
