Sum 41’s Deryck Whibley Denies Rumors He’s Joining Linkin Park

THE Linkin Park may be preparing a return to the stage after the death of Chester Benningtonwhich took place in 2017. On Saturday, the 24th, the band published a 100-hour countdown on social media. The countdown is expected to end on Wednesday, the 28th, and fans speculate that the group will announce a new vocalist.

A post from Sum 41 informing that the vocalist Deryck Whibley would also make an announcement on Wednesday, 28, led fans to believe that he would join the Linkin Park. “Why does this coincide with the announcement of the Linkin Park?” wrote an internet user in the comments of the publication. “Does this have something to do with the Linkin Park?” asked another.

Another group that released news was Oasiswho said this Tuesday, 27, that he will be on tour in 2025.

Whibleytherefore, needed to clarify that his announcement is not related to either of the two bands:

I feel the need to put an end to some recent rumors. It has come to my attention that many people believe that I will be joining a band in a reunion. I just want to say that, despite popular belief, I will not be joining the band. Oasis… Or to the Linkin Park. Or any other band, for that matter.
I have my own ‘Tour and Book’ announcement, which I will now move to later in the week, after our US tour.
I look forward to seeing whatever these two amazing bands do in the future.
