"Baby's name will definitely be Emily 💕," one wrote.
"Congrats! Now you have to name it Emily 🔥🙌," another added.
A fan chimed in with, "Congratulations! All the best with your new baby girl, presumably Emily Michelle 😅."
Other fans shared their excitement, with one writing, "First Linkin Park reveal tea and I was on the grill. So great to be an Aunt to baby Emily! 😂,"
Another exclaimed, "I SAW THAT LIVEEEEE!!!! HERE'S TO EMILY, THE NEW SOLDIER BABY 😍💖✨."
Linkin Park, known for shaping the nu-metal genre with their 2000 debut album Hybrid Theory, has always been more than a rock band. Their blend of rap, rock and electronic sounds created music that resonated with fans across generations.
The band's second album, Meteora, released in 2003, continued to push musical boundaries, producing hits such as "Breaking the Habit" and "Somewhere I Belong."
Even after the tragic passing of Chester Bennington, the band returned to the spotlight with a new lineup, including Emily Armstrong as co-vocalist and Colin Brittain on drums, replacing Rob Bourdon.
Their 2024 comeback album, From Zero, marked a fresh chapter while paying homage to their past. The 2025 tour has taken them across North America, Europe and Asia, captivating fans with a mix of classic hits and new material.
The From Zero World Tour began in September 2024 and has spanned four continents, with stops in major cities such as Brooklyn, Boston, Montreal, Chicago and Los Angeles.
The tour continues into 2026, giving more fans the chance to witness Linkin Park live and possibly create their own unforgettable memories. Linkin Park's willingness to pause their high-energy performance to share a personal milestone with a fan underscores the band's lasting impact on pop culture. From Hybrid Theory's genre-defining success to From Zero's modern comeback, the group has consistently found ways to connect with fans.
