April 16 is the Birthday in Heaven of Selena
Happy Birthday to the Queen of Tejano Music!!

Selena Quintanilla-Pérez; April 16, 1971 – March 31, 1995) was an American singer-songwriter. Known as the "Queen of Tejano Music", she is known for her contributions to popular music and fashion, which made her one of the most celebrated Mexican-American entertainers of the late 20th century.

Media outlets called her the "Tejano Madonna" for her clothing choices.[a] She also ranks among the most influential Latin artists of all time and is credited for catapulting the Tejano genre into the mainstream market.

Selena Quintanilla, widely known as the “Queen of Tejano Music,” was an American singer, songwriter, and fashion icon whose influence continues decades after her passing. Born on April 16, 1971, in Lake Jackson, Texas, she rose to fame in the late 1980s and early 1990s with her unique blend of Tejano, pop, and Latin sounds. Her albums, including Amor Prohibido, brought her mainstream success, and she became one of the most celebrated Latin artists of her time. Selena was also known for her vibrant stage presence, signature style, and close connection with her fans.

Tragically, Selena’s life was cut short on March 31, 1995, at the age of 23. She was shot by Yolanda Saldívar, the president of her fan club and manager of her boutiques, during a confrontation at a motel in Corpus Christi, Texas. The meeting was meant to address financial discrepancies involving missing funds. During the argument, Saldívar pulled out a gun and shot Selena in the back as she tried to flee. Selena managed to run to the motel lobby for help but collapsed shortly after. She was pronounced dead at the hospital due to blood loss and cardiac arrest caused by the gunshot wound.
