Selena Quintanilla-Perez, known simply as Selena, was a popular Mexican-American singer-songwriter, dancer, model, fashion designer, actress, and record producer, famously referred to as 'The Queen of Tejano Music.' Born on April 16, 1971, she released her first album at age twelve and gained fame throughout the early 1990s, particularly in Spanish-speaking countries. Tragically murdered at 23 by her fan club president, her influence grew posthumously. Texas Governor George W. Bush declared April 12 Selena Day shortly after her death, and her life inspired the 1997 film 'Selena' starring Jennifer Lopez.
