Once again, Kanye West has whipped the Twitterverse into a frenzy.

This time, however, the controversial rapper didn’t upstage a teenage country singer or berate a morning show host.

Instead, a photo of West exiting a building in a seriously massive, apparently mink coat was posted online, incurring the wrath of thousands of Twitter followers for his un-PC cold-weather gear.

PHOTOS: Check out Kanye’s toasty coat.

“I think its absolutely disgusting that @kanyewest wears a mink fur, leather pants, and gator shoes,†@MsJBRZL tweeted. “How many poor animals did he kill for 1/2 an outfit? Smh!â€

Top model Joanna Krupa compared Kanye to the devil with her tweet on Wednesday, and tells FOX411.com exclusively, “If Kanye is wearing a real fur coat — and that’s what it looks like — then I think he’s a man without heart, soul or any common sense.â€

Krupa, an avid animal rights activist, added that “It looks pathetic: He looks like a mutated, two-legged stuffed animal. Anyone who thinks wearing fur is elevating one’s sex-appeal or status must have deep rooted self-esteem issues.â€

Kanye West has not responded to FOX411.com’s request for comment, and has been uncharacteristically silent on Twitter.

Which has one Twitter fan worried.

@theDarrenNelson joked, “@kanyewest where you at? Did PETA kill you for wearing that mink haha.â€

Ha. Ha?
