WATCH: Chris Brown calls out a pilot for asking for drugs

Los Angeles - Chris Brown was reportedly thrown off a private jet for smoking marijuana.

The Yeah 3x hitmaker and his entourage reportedly ignored warnings from the pilot not to light up on board the aircraft, prompting him to call police when he could smell a "strong odour" of the drug coming from the cabin.

Officers arrived at the Signature Aviation at Miami International Airport on Monday and made everyone leave the plane as they could also smell marijuana.

According to TMZ, the smell of smoke was so strong, the pilot was forced to open all the doors and air the jet out before it was useable again.

Chris has however hit out at reports denying the entire incident in a video on Instagram.

He captioned the video: "DONT WORRY , BE HAPPY. I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT ME AND MY FELLOW COLLEAGUES LOOK RATHER INTIMIDATING WITH THE "GOLD CHAINS" " WATCHES""TATTOOS. THIS PILOT WORKED ALL HIS LIFE ONLY TO HAVE TO TAKE direction or requests FROM A PERSON at least 20 yrs older than me. (sic)"

The 27-year-old can be seen welcoming himself to Cannes and goes on to say that the pilot was the one who wanted "drugs", he said: "Why the hell are we in Cannes if we got escorted off a plane?

"Marijuana smoking on the plane? I think we ah kinda learned our lesson, I don't think we really need drugs on a plane."

He added: "But you probably should check with the pilot because he definitely kept asking my homies fro an eight-ball"
