Chester Bennington’s Son Jaime Says Fans Are Telling Him “To Kill Myself” After He Criticized New Linkin Park Singer


After the son of the late Linkin Park lead singer criticized the band for hiring a new lead singer, the 28-year-old scion said fans are now wishing death on him.

That so-called fans would tell Bennington to kill himself is made even more heinous — or at least grievously thoughtless — given the fact that his father died by suicide seven years ago. There are a lot of people saying some really awful shit right now to me,” he shared on social media, before saying he wanted to go to the band’s reunion show tomorrow in order to get closure. The whole contretemps was ignited after Linkin Park hired Armstrong and it came to light that she had ties to Scientology and supported Danny Masterson amid his sexual assault trial.
