Selena

She is a singer, designer and a music pioneer. She was both contemporary and traditional, an Mexican American who brought two worlds together in a unique manner. The sudden loss of her life that shattered the rising star's profile. That's what happens to a great many celebrities who die far too young. Since then, her fans have been working harder in an effort to keep in mind what she has achieved. Selena's tragic death by shooting provoked a response from the Latino Community, similar with the reactions to the death of Elvis Presley or John Lennon. Selena's music, an artist who was hugely successful across Latino communities throughout North America touched people young as well as old. Selena might have been described by some as a Latina Madonna, but she is still a great character model. Selena's values of family life offstage and her participation with AIDS awareness programs provide a great example.
