The good people of the Democratic Republic of Congo were treated to a performance put on by ‘Locked Up‘ singer Akon recently, taking to the country to watch him bring a number of his biggest hits to life in the city of Goma.
Unfortunately, if criticisms aimed the singer’s way hold any weight, his audience soon learned that they could look but not touch when he decided to crowd-surf in a giant bubble…in a reported bid to avoid catching the Ebola virus.
Full story below…
Though airborne transmission of the disease has not been documented during outbreaks, reports claim that Akon’s decision to surf the crowd in the transparent bubble came in direct response to the diseases’ continued reign in West Africa, claiming eight deaths in Nigeria and 1,998 in Liberia.
‘The Ebola virus is no joke,’ harrumphed The Source website. ‘And to avoid contracting it from anybody, when Akon left the stage to crowd surf with the people that were attending his concert, he did so in a huge plastic protective bubble.’
What the website did not report was that the five-time Grammy nominee has performed inside the stage prop on a number of previous occasions including in Perth, Australia, and Dubai, both in 2010. Neither of those countries were battling Ebola outbreaks at the time.
So, let us know…

Brandy is Queen
LOL B**** please, only in your world, and what kind of Queen performs to an EMPTY STADIUM LOL girl bye.
Lol i ain’t mad at him lol he’s getting his coins and being safe
It was probably a lucky coincidence that he did that stunt everywhere else before there. He knows he was happy it was already part of his show.
Instead of worrying about ebola he needs to worry about CATCHING a hit album.
Aww you still upset that Akon disowned your flop fav?
Lmao! i forgot that he abandoned that sinking ship known as gaga..bawHahahahaha! 🙂
Akon left during the TFM era so what are you talking about?
I screamed! Lord forgive me.
What a moron!!
Next thing he will be walking around with a condom on so he doesn’t get A I D S
u my friend is a dumbass who the hell wouldn’t wear a condom to prevent getting s**/h**/
Oh my mistake
I hate south africa for bringing ebola to america
If you gonna act like Mariah and be scared like a little girl, then why go to Africa?
Mariah Carey is a VERY strong & fearless woman. She probably has more balls than you Paul. BYE
If he did do it to not catch the v****, then I don’t blame him. But I agree with @lighwayUnicorn. There will be no crowd to surf if he doesn’t release quality music. This dude use to be everywhere. This post had to remind me that he still exists.
Honestly I rather crowd surf like that ALL the damn time, because then the can’t touch or grope you. Plus over all its easier and seems like more fun than traditional crowd surfing: SHRUG!
The way i laughed at this pics. What a ignorant moran. He shouldn’t have brought his flop ass to perform there in a god damn bubble as if they are animals!! Damn !!
Moron*
Not a stunt to avoid catching Ebola. How does he got out of the bubble w/o risking infection for his stage crew?
ahahaha that’s hilarious. he’s a fool
He donot need to be going over there at all bringing that s*** bk over here.ppl are so stupid
wait chances are it was all part of his act like all the other times he has done it before…but if not then why crowd surf in the first place?
And?He could’ve just not shown up, I don’t blame him one bit and the people bitching about this are hypocrites!I’ll be damned if I knew about a disease that scientist know so little about and not protect myself.
Brandy did an even better job, she performed for an empty stadium. Ebola is a real threat y’all 🙂
He’s actually been doing this for years. Check YouTube.
I’m sorry, but this story is just too much 😀 😀 I mean, I just came back to this post, 2 hours later after reading it #can’tstopwontstop lol 😀 😀
The funny this is the morons on here calling a “moron” would have called him a moron of he didn’t. So he’s damned if he did damned if he didn’t.
