Linkin Park's newest band member, singer Emily Armstrong, is experiencing pushback from fans online for a possible connection to Scientology and convicted rapist Danny Masterson.
Fans online have been circulating an Instagram comment that former Scientologist and the Mars Volta musician Cedric Bixler-Zavala sent to Armstrong, alleging that she has ties to the controversial group. Bixler-Zavala alleged that Armstrong and others tried to silence his wife Chrissie Carnell Bixler after she came forward, claiming Masterson sexually assaulting her. Carnell Bixler testified against Masterson in 2022 and separately filed a lawsuit against Masterson, NME reported.
