Selena Quintanilla 

Selena is a Latin icon that tragically died at the age of 23 due to her murder. She was murdered by her manager/best friend on March 31, 1995 at the age of 23. Selena was a caring, kind, humble, and electric person. She had powerful vocals, good moves, and an amazing interaction with her crowd. She was the Britney Spears of Latin music back then and to this day is not forgotten. In 1997 a film was released, titled "Selena", and J Lo portrayed Selena. Selena's first language was English but later on, she started her career in Latin music and saw major success. She never ignored her Latin roots and never said no to a fan asking for an autograph. She never forgot where she came from. Her murder sent shock waves around the world and she will never be forgotten. Unfortunately, she never got to see the success of her English album because of her death. Her songs "Dreaming of You" and "I Could Fall in Love" peaked on the English billboard charts. MAC Cosmetics is also deciding to release a Selena line of makeup in her memory. Selena will always be remembered and kept in our hearts forever.
