Simone Battle, 25, was living the life that most young girls could only dream about, but that all came to an abrupt ending with the announcement of her passing. The member of the pop group G.R.L. was first discovered on the show X Factor in 2011, and just a year ago Battle was announced as one-fifth of the new girl group modeled after the Pussycat Dolls. During that time, Simone worked with Putbull, famed producer Dr. Luke and R&B legend Darkchld.
While friends and family take this moment to remember the great times with Battle, take a look at just a few of the great photos from the late Simone Battle on Instagram.
