some outlets reporting on this have said they've reached out to LP's team for comments, so maybe we'll get a response of some sort (albeit probably not a great one)

 

It's not that deep, if you think Cedric is in scientology right now, you truly have lost your mind

 

iirc didn't they poison his dogs?!

 

I can't imagine what this would look like at this point. If she is truly still in Scientology, which seems to be true, she won't denounce it. Maybe some bullshit of how it's not bad or whatever people say.... and I think either way she won't address the Danny stuff... I dunno, I don't see a way out

 

correct

 

They did. I could link to Cedric's instagram post about it but it's very graphic so I'd rather not

 

something akin to Elizabeth Moss, i take it (didn't she do something similar when someone called out her involvement with Scientology while starring in The Handmaid's Tale?)

 

Now in Rolling Stone. They can't possibly ignore this now.

Linkin Park's Emily Armstrong Criticized: Danny Masterson, Scientology

 

ugh

 

One Step Closer to getting kicked out of the band

 

It is insane that they didn't vet this, but they still have time to do the right thing

 

Get Deryck Whibley on the phone

 

Danny Masterson trending on Twitter

 

This is the stock answer the Jehovah’s Witnesses will give you too.

EDIT: Not sure why it’s not properly quoting, but the Moss quote a few posts above.

 

Because you can't have a quote inside a quote, or you get quoteception.

 

It would be wild if Rob Bourdon (linkin park’s original drummer) pulled a Topher Grace and kept his distance because of all the Scientology stuff.. apparently they’ve been working with Emily Armstrong to some degree since 2019

 

I was thinking the same thing

 

Oh wow, that's quite an interesting theory. I am not going to make the jump but I wouldn't be shocked if that turned out to be true

 

Wasn't the interview pretty much Mike saying that Rob was around less and less and eventually stopped being involved? Wonder if that lines up with Emily starting to be part of LP projects.

 

Yeppers, it's definitely interesting

 

Statement from Emily

 

when you say things like this it feels like you are being over the top but genuinely i am surprised they let her say anything that close to a denunciation (still not very close)

 

Can't help but notice no mention of scientology, but then again, that might be dangerous. She denounced Masterson. It'll be interesting to see what, if anything, Cedric and his wife say in response.

 

I’m at least optimistic that the band put pressure on her to say something….hopefully
