In Memoriam

Filed under: Latinolicious

The beautiful and talented Selena's life was cut tragically short thirteen years ago today at the too tender age of 23.

She had so much life ahead of her!

Thankfully, her music lives on. And THIS is one of our favorite Selena songs.

R.I.P.

    …AND THEN…Jennifer Lopez had to go STEAL her life away too.
    Sad. I wish Selena lived and JLO was the one that….u know. I mean, JLO had to go copy her singing voice, her designing clothes, even marry a guy name Chris who is was in her band. JLO the big copycat. Fat fuck.

    Pues es lamentable el hecho de que haya muerto asesinada, pero lo que me parece extraordinariamente real, es que esto la convirtio en leyenda,al igual que con otros artistas que mueren jovenes, y en la cuspide de su carrera

    Already?
    I mean i am brazilian, i heard of her after her tragic death. So sad. And then was that movie with Jennifer Lopez, i started to search things about the real Selena. Sadness.
    The world isn't fair.
    And people, please stop comparing her with J.Lo. It's an offense to Selena's memory.

    I only found her music shortly after she died. She had a wonderful voice then I saw the movie of her life and it made me cry. She was such a wonderful young person and didn't deserve to go that way. I wish she could still be here today because I think she would be on top of it all. I also think she deserved to be on top of it all unlike some celebs today.

    it is a shame……….. & what was left in her legacy??!!!

    FUCKING JENNIFER LOPEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    just imagine what could have happened right now for the latin community if Selena's spirit and talent could have lasted.

    thank you Perez for posting this up!

    ugh!
    fuckin J. LO SUCKS !!—— i don't see her remembering what got her started !

    Selena, my idol…..She had THE voice of an angel…she was beautiful inside and out, she could dance like no other…and she was kind and humble….always respected and appreciated her fans. Guess God wanted her a lil closer to him. RIP Selena, YOU WILL NEVER BE REPLACED or forgotten!!!

    Thank you for posting this, it brought back so many amazing memories. I am from Corpus Christi and as a little girl saw her perform many times. She is unarguably the best Latina artist ever!!

  59. evian says – reply to this

    I just read this on her imdb.com page:
    "When Marcela was pregnant with Selena, her parents were convinced they were having a boy. The name they had chosen was Marc Anthony. Selena's name was chosen when her mother's roommate had chosen that name for a girl she was gonna have, but she had a boy, thus Selena's name was born"

    Marc Anthony with she would be born a man. The same name of J.Lo husband. I just think its a little creepy.

    she was a famous person who actually had talent…Today's celebs and singers usually have horrible voices, but I think this video shows that she had a beautiful voice, and she really did help put latinas on the map in the entertainment industry.

    Oh dear god, I was PRAYING you'd post something on her. Now I can say that I DO love you, Perez. I can't look at the video, it makes my eyes water up. I hate it. I hope Yolanda ROTTS!!! Selena's memory will live on FOREVER. I can't belive it's been 13 years, I was about 7 or 8 when it happened, and I remember. . I was at school .. I cried. Then I got my mom to buy me her doll and I cried even more. . MY IDOL. I LOVE YOU SELENA!!

    I live here in Corpus Christi, and I wasnt a big fan of hers but i remember living in some apartments that are by the cemetary she is buried at and every year on her b-day and the date she died, there are tons of people there..they still go there every year. She was a beautiful woman and had a great voice. Her grave site is on of the most beautful I have ever seen.

    Thank you so much for letting her memory live on, this is really sweet of you. She was talented, beautiful, real, and inspirational. This is a true role model, not the talentless trash we have to "entertain" us today. J-lo did her no justice as well. Anywho, thanks again for this.

    Such a MONUMENTAL loss to music and fans EVERYWHERE!!! Shot down in the infancy of her career. Selena would have become a HUGE star!!! She had just barely gotten started!!! Music, Fashion, and I'm sure acting was right around the corner. Her light and sweet voice have been missed but will never be forgotten. I wish her family comfort today and hope they know her fans still play her music, and think of her more often than not!
