Newsboys, the legendary Christian rock supergroup, have been dropped from their record label following investigations by the Guardian and other media outlets into their former singer Michael Tait, who has been accused of sexually assaulting three men in the early 2000s, two of whom said they believed they had been drugged by the rock star.

The 40-year-old band has struggled to retain its once-massive fanbase in the wake of the allegations and a flurry of public questioning about what individuals in Tait’s circle might have known about his recent admission that he has led a “double life”.

“As a result of all this and the things that have come out that [Tait’s] done and he’s confessed to, we’ve been dropped from our record label,” he said.

Oh no! Anyways...
