"It is with great sadness that we share the passing of our beloved Lauren."

The group posted on Instagram that their hearts are broken, as reported by The Guardian, who noted that Bennett was a British-born vocalist who competed on The X-Factor before joining the girl groups Paradiso Girls and G.R.L. De Telegraaf also reported that the band confirmed the death in a social media statement, adding that the cause has not been disclosed.

"We cannot express how much she meant to us."

Bennett rose to international fame after singing on LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem," a global smash that topped charts in multiple countries. The Independent and ABC7 both reported her age at 37 and highlighted her role on the track. Her former band G.R.L. disbanded after several tragic losses, and Bennett's death adds another layer of grief to the group's history, as noted by Rolling Stone.

Tributes and condolences have poured in from fans and fellow artists, though details about memorial services or funeral arrangements have not been announced. The surviving members of G.R.L. have asked for privacy during this difficult time, as reported by ABC7.
