Selena

Data updated on 2025-03-04 08:38:05 UTC
Selena Quintanilla was a Grammy Award-winning Latin recording artist whose contributions to music and fashion made her one of the most celebrated Mexican-American entertainers of the 20th century and named the "Queen of Tejano Music".

Born in Lake Jackson, Texas in 1971, Selena began performing as lead singer at age 9 in her family’s band, Selena Y Los Dinos.

In 1989, she signed with Capitol Latin EMI and soon reached international fame.

In 1993, “Selena Live!” won a Grammy Award for best Mexican-American album.

In 1994, Selena released her double-platinum album “Amor Prohibido” and opened her boutique clothing store and salon, Selena Etc., in Corpus Christi and San Antonio, TX.

Before her untimely death in 1995, she had started work on an English-language crossover album. Released posthumously later that year, “Dreaming of You”, became the best-selling Latin album of all time, debuting at No.1 on the Billboard 200 chart and selling more than 3.5 million copies.

In 2021 the Recording Academy awarded Selena the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award for her contributions of artistic significance to the field of recording.

Her story transcends cultural differences and continues to inspire
people around the world. She is remembered as an icon for her
musical accomplishments as well as for the joy that the memory of her charismatic personality continues to bring to her fans.

Thousands visit the Selena Museum in her hometown of Corpus Christi every year.
