In Memoriam
Filed under: LatinoliciousThe 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.

JLo has NOTHING on this girl. I love you Selena! R.I.P hun.
She had talent but was fug.
She died in her prime so maybe people didnt see it yet.
Selena was an amazing talent.. she'll always be remembered.
R.I.P for the tejano Queen! and the best thing to come out of Texas and Mexico! Texaco!
THE ONLY GOOD WETBACK IS A DEAD WETBACK!! ONE LESS BREEDER FOR US TO WORRY ABOUT!
I can't believe its been 13 years since the world lost such an amazing singer and person.
Re: SPICK – IT WOULD OF BEEN REALLY GREAT IF ONE LESS STUPID ASS WHITE MOTHER (YOURS) WOULD OF HAD AN ABORTION SO THERE WOULD BE ONE LESS WHITE ASSHOLE (YOU) IN THE WORLD.
I was there that night at the rodeo as well…me an all my sisters. MY dad was a DJ way back when,so I had the plaesure of meeting Selena,Suzette,and Abraham. She will always be remembered!
Thanks for posting Perez,it means alot

A dead Mexican? Who cares, except the cleaning crew.
Re: BORDER FENCE – She worked for a living and was a success. More than you thats for sure. She wasent just popping out babies and living on welfare. She can buy and sell your ugly ass.
a mexican woman dying is not the same as a white woman dying, now if it had been britney or paris, then it would have been awful, but now? not so much.
Good call Perez!! Thank You I love her:) You made my morning:)
Selena, sí — ¿pero qué sobre Emilio, la semana pasada dañada superstar de Tejano en un accidente del autobús?
Re: Muher –
fuck you
Anna Nicole Smith's death was a lot sadder. America doesn't really care about this Mexican singer. or what passes as a singer to you untalented people.
OMG!! I love selena sooo much….the world hasn't been the same wit out her and it never will b…I love u selena n you will always b alive n millions of hearts
Rip
Re: Happydays – Isn't it great to know Perez attracts unto himself every damn racist in the friggin' country? Why is that?
I don't think she would have made it that big because only Mexicans really knew about her. I mean it's not like when Elvis or John Lennon died or even Kurt Cobain, we truly grieved for them.
Missy if you still get the chills put on a coat you stupid wetback slut.
Jlo was great in the movie.
All of you fat lazy wetbacks get off your employers computers and get back to work scrubbing floors, cutting grass and selling drugs.
A dead mexican is like milk, it does a body good.

Thanks so much Perez for reminding us of what a beautiful and talented person we lost 13 years ago. She was da greatest and is truly my idol and inspiration to sing. We will always remember you and sing your music forever!!! R.I.P. SELENA!!!
Wow, has it been 13 years already? Your music lives on Selena. RIP !
RIP selena.
always missed but never forgotten.
PROUD TO BE HISPANIC!
An amazing singer? Ha! I just spit out my coffee laughing.
RIP SELENA
you wil remain in our hearts forever, you are inspiration to us all, your music both in the tejano, and english world lives on. I commend you for all of your valiant efforts, and your courage for being a female in the male dominated genre of tejano music. I miss you, and your smile….i visit your statue in corpus chirsit, and it brings me to tears that you were taken from us so early, by someone you respected. May your music live on forever in each one of your fans.
we miss you selena!!!
R.I.P. Selena…miss you! Que Dios Te Bendiga Bella!
Thank you Perez for posting this. Not enough people know how wonderful Selena was and how bright of a star she was. She is one of my favorite singers of all time and your homage to her made my day. Thank you
Ms. Selena was THE original big-butt beauty AND had talent to top it off. You know if it hadn't been for the movie and Jennifer Lopez having the chance to play Selena—would J. Lo be as big as she is now? NOT.
SO SHE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR JLO IN OUR FACES ALL THE TIME
Re: Nobody – Yeah, no one knew her. She was only known as the Mexican Madonna and won grammy's. You are a tard. I remember when this happened because I was enroute to Padre Island and drove through Brownsville when I heard what had happened. Very devastating for the hispanic community. Sad.
Never heard of her; was she American?
BEING FROM THE SAME HOMETOWN AS HER (CORPUS CHRISTI, TX) IT STILL HURTS. SHE WAS VERY TALENTED, AND SHE WILL BE FOREVER MISSED.
I ALSO THINK IT'S REALLY SAD TO SEE SOME OF THE COMMENTS BEING MADE ABOUT HER AND ABOUT HISPANICS/LATINOS IN GENERAL. I AM NOT A LATINA WOMAN, BUT I RESPECTED HER AND LOVED HER MUSIC.
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO CHOSE TO BE HATEFUL, REMEMBER THE HORRIBLE THINGS YOU HAVE SAID ON YOUR JUDGEMENT DAY.
THANK YOU so much for posting this…i member the day…i cried for days…she was my idol…and still is…what a loss…SELENA we love you…
Killed by an obese ugly Mexican whore too, how unfortunate.
I will always love Selena..I visted Corpus Christi 2 yrs ago while in San Antonio…I went to Selena's boutique and the friendly woman at the counter asked me if I wanted directions to the cemetary where she is buried. I drove minutes from the boutique and found Selena's burial plot. I was in awe and stood there at her gravesite speechless and amazed that i was actually there..U will always be missed Selena!! xoxoxo
yes, jay. PROUD TO BE HISPANIC!! we miss you selena!
I like you, Perez. Even when you act stupid or gross. Bcz I know you have another side, like this one. Thanks for the video.
Well, don't you people still have her numerous, numerous, numerous, numerous, numerous, numerous, numerous, numerous, numerous, numerous, numerous, offspring to remember her by? Or are they all in jail after joining gangs.
Selena was soo talented and she is missed by millions of fans….Siempre Selena!
We all miss Selena very much very humble person who cared alot about her fans and her family keep her memory alive…. RIP Selena
thanks for posting this. i still cry when i see that performance. she's truly missed!!!
I think the people that she touched wil always remember where they were and what they were doing when they found out she had been killed.
I was so sad to hear she had drowned in the Rio Grande. So sad.
Time moves on, on a lighter note the great Kylie Minogue is coming to the United States. Yah!
Thank you Perez for remembering a great talent. I was there at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo when she performed. The place was packed, all because of Selena. I know she would have been something great.
Her parents helped kill her by not letting her have a blood transfusion at the hospital. We would all still have Selena if it wasn't for them. She died from blood loss! I will forever blame them for it. They were just like Joe Simpson the Lohan parents exploiding their kids for money. I still can't get over the fact that he would charge people to go see her in a closed casket in TX. He did really bad things.
Best. Selena. Song. Ever.
Drowned in the Rio Grande? I thought she was shot trying to rob a 7-Eleven, or possibly shot by a rancher while trying to cross the border illegally. The story always changes.
Isn't her grave the one piled high to the sky with plastic flowers? Mexican Taste is so funny.
WOW… EVERYTIME i SEE HER PERFORM i GET CHILLS AND HAVE TEARS.
SHE WAS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL PERSON.
EVERYTIME I WATCH HER MOVIE i CRY…..
MY HEART GOES OUT TO THE FAMILY…. I PRAY THAT THEY WOULD HAVE PEACE IN THEIR HEARTS AND JOY, BECAUSE SELENA TOUCHED SO MANY PEOPLES HEARTS WITH HER LIFE.
LET US CELEBRATE SELENA TODAY….
Re: Nobody –
#34 - Nobody says – reply to this
Selena sucks, nobody knew who she was until she died.
[try knowing what you are talking about, she was famous before her death but it was after her death that made her a legend. So stf up you ignorent moron]
Lost another maid to Dr. Death! Rats!!
Boo-Hoo, cry me a river, now get at it that grass isn't going to cut itself you know.
Awwwww I love Selena, she was so damn beautiful, sweet and talented. I hope Yolanda burns in hell for taking her away from her fans, her family and her husband.
Re: Big(Winston) Brother 1984 – SOME PEOPLE NEED TO GROW UP AND HAVE A HEART. I AM A PROUD WHITE GIRL, MARRIED TO A MEXICAN. I LOVE MY FAMILY, I LOVE THE CULTURE, I SPEAK THE LANGUAGE….
PEOPLE WHO SPEAK WITH SUCH IGNORANCE ONLY PROVE HOW IMMATURE AND NONHUMANE THEY ARE…
LOVE KNOWS NO COLOR…
**RACISM IS AN EXCUSE TO FEED YOUR BIG EGO….**
Re: Nobody – Asshole, a million time over.
Elizabeth if what you claim is true, then her dad is a zillion times worst than Lilo's father. That is simply the tackiest thing I have ever heard of. How can you charge
people to see a body in a casket. WTF!
I love u selena! too bad your bro and dad are still trying to pimp you out after your death! you were the only good one in your family!
Re: Nobody – You are an asshole, a million times over!
Seeing Selena's smile just breaks my heart. Honestly, she would have been SO big. She seemed like an awesome person too.
Nice of you to post the video, Perez.
I MISS HER SO MUCH
Who the fuck? I never heard of the cunt.
Wow, I got goosebumps. So sad!
Thank you so much for posting this. I remember the day she passed like it was yesterday. I love her so much and I know she is in heaven happy as she could ever be
I didn't realize this was the day she died. I loved 2 of her songs. I remember this day more because of the Movie "The Crow". R.I.P Brandon Leee Feb 1, 1965 - March 31, 1993. It was 15 years ago today he died while filming his death scene in the movie only 8 days before filming was to end. An empty shell was stuck in the gun from previous use and a blank made it dislodge into his abdomin.
she was a natural beauty! Natural talent…no computer animations necessary…. nice butt…unlike J-lo's fat ass….Beautiful lips…NO BOTOX, no nose jobs, or all the "glow" $1000 creams J-LO buys!! J-LO is such a fake retard who can't even sing…all computerized! Selena had the original BUTT!
Thanks For Remembering Perez!!! Long Live Selena!!!
Re: Elizabeth –
For your information they DID give her blood transfusions, the bullet severed a major artery and basically the blood being pumped into her was going right on thru…her parents are not to blame! Her father even set the record straight in a newspaper saying even if he was there at the time they were being administered, he would of done ANYTHING to save her life.
And to the rest of the ignorant people on here, she was born in TEXAS, she was just as American as anyone else.
Go spread your hatred elsewhere!
Thank you Perez for remembering Selena today! Como La Flor is one of my favorites too!
Exactly! gone but never forgotten…we miss and luv u Selena.
Oh, please! 95% of America had never heard of this chick until JLo played her in that horrible movie.
Re: mike – you are the slut!!!
#160 YOU ARE A RACE TRAITOR WITH LOW-SELF ESTEEM BECAUSE NO DECENT, INTELLIGENT CONFIDENT WHITE WOMAN WOULD STOOP SO LOW TO MARRRY A MEXICAN APE!!! SHAME ON YOU AND THE LITTLE HALF-BREED CHIMPS YOU SPAWN! YOU ARE NO LONGER WELCOME IN THE WHITE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! YOU ARE WORTHY OF DEATH!!!!!
omg!!!! i totally guessed this would be your favorite cause its mine!!! i love her so much! she is so amazing!
with out selena there would be NO J-LO ! and thats the damn truth! selena was the sacrificial lamb! RIP you were a true entertainer. A singer and a dancer with so much charisma! You will always be remebered!
Re: SPICK – learn to spell you immigrant.
where did your grandpa come from
Re: BORDER FENCE –
your a fucking asshole you shithead…..your the reason this world has nutts killing people…im white and love my seximexi…..so take your rasict ass somewhere else….
r.i.p…..selena…….she rocked
Pleaze, stop comparing the living to the dead. How do you know she would have been bigger than JLO? You don't, no one does, JLO is alive and kicking with many decades to come, she has a successful life.
Thank you so much Perez for posting this and letting us remember how great and talented Selena was. I can´t believe its been 13 years!!! Wow, I always wonder where she´d be if she was still alive… I bet she´d have been one of the biggest singer ever!!! She was such a beautiful girl.- SHES A LEYEND!!. I bet that wherever she is, shes very proud of herself and her fans. Love ya forever Selena.
No matter how many years pass, Selena will always be remembered. Thanks for mentioning it, Perez. I think it's quite clear how strong her legacy is.
How nice! Ragging on JLO just because your singer is dead as if it is JLO'S fault. Stupid W.
i miss her and her music she was such a great talent wow!!!
jennifer lopez would have been nobody if selena would still be alive but i do love both of them!!!
Re: Not in my backyard – YOU IDIOT SHE WAS FROM TEXAS AND MAYBE THAT WAS YOUR MOTHER CROSS…YOU ASS
CONTINUATION:
Regarding J- LO:
Jennifer Lopez had not even THOUGHT of designing, singing, etc., until she made the movie Selena. JLO, could NEVER, EVER, come close to achieving the REAL singing talent that Selena had. (JLO doesn't "sing", she "breathes" into a freaking microphone - to music in the background), that sadly, some people interpret as "singing".
P.S. Indeed JLO's "breakout" was when she played the character "Selena", but sadly, JLO NEVER got out of that charachter!!! After that movie, whenever I saw JLO on an interview on T.V., she still TALKED & LAUGHED (or tried to), like SELENA (could I possibly be the only one that noticed this??)
Right down to the "Selena goodbye wave", to this day, JLO still copies.
Selena brought happiness to many, many individuals with the sound of her voice. If you didn't, or don't like (her music), that is your prerogative, but don't bash her fans, or her, for that matter. One day, someone that you love or admire, or even a close family member will surely leave this earth. Hopefully, YOU won't be reading nasty and degrading comments about your lost loved one.
Definitely, a Selena Fan.
sad but she is the penultimate example of death being a great career move for mediocre musicians.
I knew there was a reason I randomly popped the movie in the DVD player last night. Still so sad. She had such wonderfully pleasing music. Such a talent
What she could have been…. :*/
oh my goodness
thank you for posting this
i cried my eyes out when she died
and i still do. she was the greatest.
viva selena.
Re: Elizabeth – Your right. I heard stories too. I heard about the blood transfusion because they were Jehovah's Witness it wasent allowed. Screw that. I'll go against anything to save my child. THe father was a money pimp and the mother sat back and said nothing, like a puppet.
Re: just a watchin – Thank you!!! I ignore the rantings by attention starved losers. Selena is remembered and noone knows who those losers are. That says tons. And Selena is irreplaceable and thats why we stil remember her today. Jlo did her part in the film. But they are NO comparison. Selena was PERFECTION with soooooooo much talent. This video of a LIVE performance stands as a testament to all the gifts God gave her on this earth. Her life was short but thank god we ever had her here at all. Miss u Selena!!!
thanks you for remembering perez, here in corpus christi, we still remember her and we still fell the pain of her passing.
thank you perez for remembering selena. i can't believe it's already been 13 years, i remember it clearly, i'm from san antonio and i was 12 when she died. my mom took me to her concert when she came to san antonio to perform. like many of her fans, i would cry myself to sleep over her death. she was such a good role model to everyone who knew who she was. my hearts still hurts for her. i wish she was still here, but i guess god had a better plan for her. GOD BLESS YOU SELENA AND THE QUINTANILLA FAMILY… i love you selena and you will always be remembered
Re: crocodile tears – OK TO BEGIN YOU DONT EVEN KNOW HER IF YOURS SAYING THIS SHIZZZZZZZZZZ…LOSER…YOUR PROBABLY A RETARD LIKE BUSH…
I never post, but I applaud Perez for this post. Selena was awesome and her case is one of the biggest tragedies ever. I hate the woman who did and wish I could kill her for taking a bright shining star out of our universe for ever! RIP Selena.
I was there that night. I was probably 10 yrs old and my mom took me and my little sisters. It was amazing. She will always be missed…
Re: Bob – OK NOW BOB…IF YOU EVEN LEARNED ANYTHING IN SCHOOL..WHICH YOU PROBABLY DIDNT EVEN GO TO…ANSWER THIS…WHERE DID YOUR FAMILY COME FROM????????…AS DID EVERYONE ELSE THAT LIVES HERE…IDOIT…
