Lauren Bennett, the British singer whose vocals helped propel LMFAO's 'Party Rock Anthem' to worldwide success, has died aged 36, prompting tributes from fellow musicians and fans. While her passing marks the loss of a talented performer, it has also renewed attention on one of the most commercially successful songs of the digital music era.

Released in 2011, 'Party Rock Anthem' spent six weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 and was later ranked by Billboard among the most successful songs in the chart's history. More than a decade later, the hit continues attracting billions of views and streams, illustrating how a single global success can remain commercially valuable long after it leaves the charts.
