“No More Linkin Park For Me”: Band’s New Singer Emily Armstrong Slammed Over Scientology Claim

The new lead singer of Linkin Park sparked controversy because of her affiliation with the Church of Scientology and Danny Masterson. Emily Armstrong was announced as the band’s new singer in a live stream on Thursday (September 5), replacing the late Chester Bennington.

It didn’t take long for Linkin Park fans to dig up some dirt on the 38-year-old vocalist, who joined the Californian rock band alongside Colin Brittain, who joined as the new drummer.

While listeners were excited about the band’s comeback following a hiatus prompted by the tragic death of Chester in 2017, some have also expressed their discomfort as a result of Emily’s link to the Church of Scientology.
