A young talent passed away this weekend.
Simone Battle, a member of the five member group G.R.L. was found dead in her her Los Angeles home yesterday morning, and authorities think she hanged herself.
Battle first rose to national fame on the X Factor reality show in 2011. Though she got eliminated in the first live show in competition, she made an impression that helped her land a spot with GRL, a reboot of the Pussycat Dolls, reports the Daily News. "Simone was an exceptional young talent and human being, and we are all devastated to learn of her passing,” said a joint statement from RCA Records and two other music companies. As an actress, Battle appeared in episodes of Everybody Hates Chris and Zoey 101, notes Billboard.
The official social network for G.R.L. publicly released their statement:
Words cannot express the depth of our loss. Simone's incredible talent was only surpassed by the size of her heart.
