Selena – The Queen of Tejano Music




Hallo..how’s ur day so far. Hope ceria sokmo. Thank God today is Friday…I like!

Today my lunch hour longer but prefer to stay in office lazy to go out!

I nak share story of one my favorite singer. Selena – The Queen of Tejano Music (Spanish-Texan music)

Have you ever heard of Selena? I like her songs very much. Her songs famous in early 90s (well.. this will tell how old you are..kwang-kwang-kwang! But no big deal age is just a number).
Dia ni kira satu zaman dengan tommy page, tiffany, roxette etc

Ada kisah tragis happen to her. She is very gorgeous and talented. Ada film kisah dia, J.Lo berlakon jadi Selena. Masa ni J.Lo tak berapa famous lagi and she pun quite chubby..

The film all about Selena from small, jadi famous singer, met her husband till she was murdered by her assistant. I got her soundtrack CD.


I watched DVD story dia lebih 5–6 kali kot (borrow my kakak ipar punya..).
If you all interested to know about her boleh search kat internet. Her songs kat utube pun ada.

Btw, this is serba sikit about Selena

Selena (April 16, 1971 – March 31, 1995) was born in Lake Jackson, Texas, to Abraham Quintanilla Jr. and Marcella Quintanilla. Abraham opened a Mexican restaurant in Lake Jackson. Selena was 9 years old when her father discovered her talent for singing. He formed a band consisting of Selena on vocals, her brother AB on bass, and her sister Suzette on drums. The group called Los Dinos, after a band Abraham was a member of in the 1950s and 1960s, frequently performed at the restaurant. In 1981 the family moved to Corpus Christi where Abraham started booking his band out for weddings and parties. This became their way of life. Selena and Los Dino's big break came in 1987, when the then 15 year old Selena won the Tejano Music Award for Female Entertainer of the Year. That award led Selena to a major record label contract with Capitol Records and six very successful albums. By 1992 Selena had branched out and launched her clothing line and married her guitarist,Chris Perez.. In 1994, she was nominated and won her first Grammy for Best Mexican-American Album, Selena Live! That same year she opened her first boutique in Corpus Christi, Texas. Then on March 31, 1995 Selena was murdered at the age of 23 by Yolanda, her friend and president of her fan club.
