Selena
She is a performer also a fashion designer and a music pioneer. She was at once contemporary and traditional a Mexican-American star who bound together both worlds in a singular way--and brought amazing Tejano music to a mainstream crowd. Her untimely death splintered her rising profile and as often happens the moment a brilliant, warm singer dies too young, it has left many mourning her unrealized potential. In order to prevent her achievements from becoming forgotten, many fans over the past years have been motivated to go further. The death of Selena triggered emotions in the Latino culture that can be similar with Elvis Presley, and John Lennon. The music of Selena a singer who was hugely successful across Latino communities throughout North America touched people young and old. Selena was an asexual, flamboyant performer on stage and was often referred to by the Latina Madonna. In her off-stage life, Selena was also a strong role model as she actively participated in antidrug and AIDS campaigning.
