Selena

She is a performer as well as a designer, and music innovator. She was both contemporary and traditional, an Mexican American who brought the two worlds in an distinct way. Her sudden passing which shattered her rising profile. That's what happens to many stars who die far too young. Since then, her fans have worked even harder in an effort to keep in mind what she's achieved. The tragic shooting death of Tejano singer Selena has triggered a response in the Latino community which can be thought of as similar to the responses in the wake of the deaths of Elvis Presley and John Lennon. She was an incredibly loved singer by Latinos throughout North America. But her music was a hit with both the young and the old. Selena might have been described by some as a Latina Madonna, however she's still an excellent role model. Selena's values of family life offstage as well as her involvement with AIDS awareness campaigns make her a good example.
