More from Fox News:
Gillis left the group just before that success came, and he was replaced by Devin Lima. They went on to release another hit, “Girl on TV,” with a music video that starred Jennifer Love Hewitt.
Although the group members were just in their 20s during their heyday, Gillis is actually the third member of LFO to pass away.
Cronin died in 2010 after battling leukemia. He had a stroke after taking a medication to help him recover from complications from a stem cell transplant. He was 36.
Lima died in 2018 of stage 4 adrenal cancer. He was 41.
