Selena

She is a singer also a fashion designer and a music innovator. She was the first Mexican American artist who was traditional yet modern. She united both worlds and helped bring Tejano music into mainstream culture. As is often the case of a brilliant and genial star passes away way too soon and unexpectedly, it caused her to lose the popularity she had been gaining. People mourned the entire extent of her potential, which was untapped. Over the years, fans were encouraged to push themselves harder to ensure that Selena's achievements would not be forgotten. The tragic death of Selena by a shooter triggered emotions in Latino communities that is comparable the way people reacted following the death of Elvis Presley and John Lennon's. She was an incredibly loved singer by Latinos throughout North America. But her music touched both the young and the old. Selena was a hot glamorous performer on stage that was frequently known as her as the Latina Madonna. Off-stage Selena was a strong role model as she participated actively in antidrug and AIDS campaigning.
