Linkin Park Releases "Carpool Karaoke" With Chester Bennington In His Last Media Appearance

Trigger warning: This article discusses suicide and depression.

Linkin Park has posted a full 20-minute video of Carpool Karaoke with Ken Jeong to Facebook showing one of the final media appearances of lead singer, Chester Bennington, filmed only a week before his death. 

Bennington died by suicide on July 20, aged 41, just a month after their most recent album, One More Light, was released.

The video shows Bennington, with his bandmates Mike Shinoda and Joe Hahn, singing along to their hit "Numb" and Outkast's "Hey Ya" as well as doing corny dance moves with host Ken Jeong.

Last month, his wife Talinda, posted a video of Chester enjoying time with his family just 36 hours before his death.

She explained that depression doesn't have a face and that it's as obvious as some would think. "This is what depression looked like to us," Talinda added.
