Selena

She was an artist, creator, and performer who broke boundaries in the music world. She was at once modern and traditional. She was a Mexican American who brought two worlds together in a distinct way. Similar to how there are many who mourn a superstar who died too young, her death was untimely and shattered an energizing career. Her fans have worked even harder in an effort to keep in mind what she has achieved. Her tragic death in a shooting provoked a response from the Latino community that was similar as the reaction to deaths of Elvis Presley or John Lennon. A hugely popular Latino musician across North America, Selena's music has touched many lives across cultures. An edgy, sexy stage actress frequently referred to as the Latina Madonna Selena was nonetheless seen as a role model on stage she was a family-oriented actively involved in anti-drug campaigning as well as AIDS awareness programmes.
