I know all about you
My favorite singer is Chester Bennington.
That's I've learnt about him.
- Some interesting facts from his childhood.
Chester
Bennington was born on March 20, 1976 in Phoenix, Arizona, USA.Bennington took
interest in music at a young age, citing Depeche Mode and Stone Temple Pilots
as early inspirations and dreamed of becoming a member of Stone Temple Pilots.
In Chester
the first musical instrument was a piano. In his youth, he participated in a
number of bands and played on different instruments, but in most cases it was
the singer.
When
Chester was young, he'd sing around the house, dreaming he was the fifth member
of Depeche Mode.
- What is his/her favourite style or clothes?
Chester is the only member that needs a
carrying-kit cargo case for his wardrobe. He's got shoes that go with every
outfit, his underwear has to match his outfits, his socks have to match his
shoes and his pants. Everything is a very big deal to him.
- Does he/she have a pet?
I don't
know.
- What music does he like?
- Is he single/married?
Yes, he is
married with Talinda Ann Bentley,with
whom he has three children, Tyler Lee Bennington and twins, Lily and Lila (born
2011). The wedding ceremony was custom designed and performed by Mary Jean
Valente of "A Ceremony of the Heart". Bennington and his family live
in a house in Gilbert, Arizona when he is not on tour.
- Some interesting facts about Chester
Chester has
a tattoo on his left calf muscle of the soldier with wings from the
"Hybrid Theory" CD cover. The flames on his arms represent the Aries
part of his fire sign. His left shoulder has a Piscean symbol and a Japanese
Koi carp on his right. His back piece is six arms spread out and was done by
his friend who said it was a visual representation of how Chester reaches out
and grabs the audience. All of Chester's tattoos symbolize something. His left
hand has his engagement finger tattooed and his ex-wife, Samantha, has the same
tattoo. And they did it before Pamela and Tommy Lee. They got tattoos because
Chester couldn't afford a ring and his friend (Sean from Grey Daze) had a
tattoo shop and did them for free.
Thanks to
his brother (who's 13 yrs older) Chester was influenced by bands like Loverboy,
Foreigner and Rush.
In airports
Chester has to take off all his metal spike, bracelets, etc. and he has a
little bag or something that he arranges them all on. They must be in the same
place every time.
