Simone Battle, who rose to fame on the US version of "X Factor,"was found dead in her Los Angeles home, and it appears to have been suicide.
Battle was a singer in the girl group G.R.L., which was the reboot of the Pussycat Dolls. She signed on with the group after her run on "X Factor," where she made it into the top 17.
The L.A. County Cororner's Office says Battle's autopsy has not been completed yet, so nothing has been ruled out as cause of death. Simone's father told TMZ she was found in the bedroom of her apartment in a West Hollywood neighborhood. He described her home as a guest house of a larger residence. She was 25.
