Selena

She was a performer, artist creator, performer and also broke boundaries in the music world. She was both traditional and modern, a Mexican American who brought two worlds in a unique way. She was a rising star whose untimely passing splintered it. It is also the case when a brilliant, genial young performer dies too soon, many mourned the potential that she could not yet attain. To prevent her achievements from becoming forgotten many of her fans in the last few years have been motivated to go further. The tragic death of Selena by a gunman caused an outpouring of emotion in Latino communities that is comparable to those who reacted to the death of Elvis Presley and John Lennon's. The singer was extremely popular throughout Latino communities across North America her music crossed cultural boundaries to touch the lives of young and old alike. Selena is an edgy sexually attractive performer who is sometimes described by the name of Latina Madonna. But, she's also an admired role model since she is offstage and has an amiable and family-focused attitude. She also actively is involved in anti-drug campaigns.
