“I’m very real, very sincere, and honest, and that’s how I’ll always be.” -Selena … watch “Maria Félix ate human flesh! + rumors of lNCE$T..” NEXT ruclips.net/video/SconeqWe2Fg/видео.html
@Karine Alourde, thankyou for this video! We need to expose the injustice. I truly feel that 'Chris Perez" needs his own story. Too many secrets. Untold facts about the Selena saga. Besides Abraham and his wife, I don't think anyone suffered more than Chris Perez. Do the research and you will find out.
I respect you for covering this... if I remember a while ago, you said you were a Scorpio ( forgive me if I'm wrong ) Scorpio's are typically known to be sensitive to other people's feelings. Even if you're not or don't believe in star signs, I can't imagine how you held it together to create this video while covering the part of Evil Stern, my blood is still boiling just listening to it, I hope her family held him accountable, he's absolutely disgusting 😢 love from London UK ❤ 🇬🇧❤
For real. And them calling her a “Mexican-American version of Madonna”… not even close! Selena was an original and the color of her skin didn’t make her a “copy“ of anyone else.
Selena’s father took her out of public school while she was in the 8th grade. She enrolled in the American School of Correspondence and also was accepted into the Pacific University where her major was Business Administration. Selena was an advocate and role model for kids to stay in school. Selena was a remarkable young woman with many talents and a kind heart. She will continue to be loved for who she was as a person for many years to come.
In March of '95 I was still 22. And I remember where I was when I heard the tragic news. Selena was to us Latinos what Aaliyah is to African Americans. Both very positive, beautiful and successful young women who's life was tragically cut too soon.
I was 22 also and remember my mom called me to tell me to put on the news that Selena had been shot. When I saw and heard she had died, I broke down crying. I was a fan of her music and loved her style. I went into months of depression over her death and my family couldn’t understand why bc I never met her but she was an icon for us latinos and many girls looked up to her. Yolanda Salivar is a demon!
I ALWAYS loved Selena (as a black woman in TX), she was just IT for all of us in the 90s. May she continue to RIP. She was beautiful inside and out, and loved ALL of her fans.
I’m a Black woman and when I was in middle school I saw Selena the movie. That’s how I discovered who Selena Quintenilla was and she was soooooo amazing. Multi-talented and just GORGEOUS. I wish she was still here.😔
A lot us fell in love with her after the movie especially if you weren’t Mexican, Mexican american and didn’t speak Spanish. Man I still cry watching her movie.
Born and raised Mexican here 🤚 Thank you my melaninated brothers and sisters, for respecting Selena's memory. What Howard Stern and his team said on that recording about Selena is disgusting. No mercy, no grace, no empathy for her family, her friends, her husband and her fans. Her death was devastating in the Mexican community. She was it. At that time, she was able to break out into the U.S music scene. Us, Mexicans, finally had representation in music by a female singer, Someone that looks like "us" made it in the U.S music industry! To us, that was a big deal. We were finally able to see a Mexican woman as the star and not the housekeeper. Nobody asked me, but those are my two-cents on the situation. Thank you.
Right! I felt that she was a morena skin black hair gorgeous woman who looked like us and had that it factor! We were so proud! Now in days they try and push those whitexicans that dont even truly represents us or look like us!
@96MEXICALI. Hey, no one asked me either yet I’m responding because truly I agree 💯 percent with you and I just wanted to say I’m a older woman in my fifties skin as pale as Snow White and dark hair but I was built very very voluptuous from preteen and up back when pencil straight & thin was the normal for people like me .I’m in no no way conceited at all I’m actually shy and to myself but to get you to understand that I felt I was different and didn’t fit in bcuz I had the cinched waste hips and booty like Selena .very white skin green eyes and long dark hair. Well then I met several Mexicans at work and realized I fit in perfectly with them and that nothing was wrong with me bcuz I wasn’t built like a pencil! I learned pretty fluent to speak Spanish and I moved to a community , it was a small town near bigger towns but majority were Mexican then few Puerto Ricans , black and very few white. I have so much respect for the Mexican people and they taught me to cook and most of these people had such skills I never had being a city girl and they coming from Mexico most were farmers and I’m telling you the community was kept clean and you could feel the unity in the neighborhood and I truly enjoyed living there and met some of the nicest people. A lot people told me stories about how they had to pay gangs off if they even wanted to sell fruit on a corner and they had to pay the commandante bcuz a lot of them were corrupt bcuz they got threatened by different gangs/ cartels and they had such work ethic it was unbelievable. They truly appreciated being here in the states and being able to work & most of the people worked in the fields picking cilantro or other greens or worked in the factory to send the veggies / fruit to the local supermarkets. I grew to love and respect them and in general the culture.Selena was a real person they could speak of and Americans knew who she was and loved her and Americans did too and we love her still. She has helped so so many girls to be proud of the different brown complexions and shapely bodies . She just truly was so real whenever she spoke even in interviews. She was stolen from this world too soon and she still remains A legend. People have adored her for longer then years she was alive. A beautiful soul inside even more beautiful than her outside. Sorry to message so long I don’t even talk on Facebook or tic tok Instagram nada but , I understand what she represented to the Mexican people and I only was in one town in one city in one country and I seen the impact on a lot of lil girls and well all ages . Wanted to share that truly I have alot respect for the Mexican people and I pray for change with all the troubles with violence in Mexico and things going on especially to the people just trying to work , live and provide and can’t bcuz cartel rivalry. Trust me my country is a mess too with shootings everywhere as well. I hope Selena’s soul is in such peace in Heaven 🕯☮️💟🙏🏽🕊
@@NanaD-ve9ttEverything you say is so true!! The majority of Mexicans are wonderful people. They come here to work and make a better life for their families. It just makes me so angry the way our ex- president and all these people who support him talk about them!! Especially, all those so news people on Fox news. I am old now and have associated with people from many different ethnic groups, and I have found the majority of people just want to live in peace. They want to own their own home, have a good school system for their children, and make enough money to support their families. I am so sick of all the hatred in this country. Yes, Howard Stern is one of the people who normalized horrible behavior and he made a fortune off of it!! It is totally disgusting what he said about Selena after she died!!
Her anesthetics were so on point. She definitely had an eye for fashion. Some of those looks so current even today. 😮 Ive been listening to Selena AI songs with her voice singing cureent songs. Really makes you think the amazing music she couldve given us.
She wasn't just loved by Mexican Americans and Mexicans, she was loved by almost anyone who understood Spanish and the lyrics in her songs. My Puerto Rican family loved her as well as the Mexican American side as well.
I'm an Italian - American from New York State who's been a HUGE Selena fan for going on 26 years. She had a combination of vocal talent, stylistic versatility, charisma and class that was, and will always remain, without equal. There will never be another like her. And, Howard Stern is a NOBODY.He's never achieved anything that anyone will ever consider to be REMOTELY important, and he never will. Selena is a LEGEND who will be remembered, loved and respected FOREVER. 50 years from now, nobody will know or care who Howard Stern was. Not that anyone with a brain cares NOW.
I’m currently 23 and a month away from 24. To know she didn’t make it past this point feels like a true tragedy to the world💔 Rip queen of tejano music🥀
I am lol but it took me some time to learn Spanish lol, then come to find out that I’m Jamaican and Cuban. But I hated watching this, so sad to see someone talk about her in that way.
Right, which is why I can't comprehend why Hispanics and Latinos are so quick to side with the yt man when it comes to black people even within their own community of Afro Latinos.
@@purplemist7 yes, it does every ethnic group where they have dark skinned people: Asians, Polynesians, Eurasians, even Africans. No one gets a pass, but we're talking about the Hispanic/ Latino community, so please don't take it that I'm saying y'all are the one and only. It's a huge problem globally and it stems from WS.
Selena and Chris were friends of my coworker when i worked in Marketing at SeaWorld, and she was going to do a concert there that weekend. He was so excited to see them and they planned to go out to dinner after the show. There were stacks of posters for the Selena concert we were going to put up. That afternoon we found out that she had been murdered. It was so awful! And in five minutes, someone had stolen all of the posters of Selena....it was disgusting and a horrible reminder that people can do despicable things...
@@danavixen6274 She is still greatly loved in Texas, and of course, internationally. She had started a clothing line and opened a store on Broadway in San Antonio called, SELENA, which was there until quite recently. My husband is a sound engineer when she performed at the Alamodome, and met her dad, and has run into him a few times in the last several years. He has been always trying to launch the next big star, but no one was anywhere near Selena. He was still out there promoting, probably thinking he could make magic again, not realizing how it wasn't about him, but that his daughter was one in a million. My husband said it was very sad to see him desperately attempting to recreate success.
@@christineparis5607 I can believe it! Thank you for your response! I'm honored! So glad you were fortunate to meet the great Selena and her beloved husband Chris Perez. I love Chris's memoir btw! I have respect for Selena's family. I have love for the '97 biopic as well as the recent Netflix docuseries. However, I don't agree with her father Abraham's quest to find the next Selena. His daughter is IRREPLACEABLE! This is EERILY similar to Aaliyah's uncle Barry Hankerson seeking out singers who try to emulate his ICONIC niece. Aaliyah will NEVER be duplicated as well! 🙅🏾♀️
@@danavixen6274 Your comment was fascinating! I didnt know about other dads who were driven like that, but I can imagine that they just can't bear the loss and want to recreate the past somehow. Very sad. My friend was very sad for a long time. He said that Selena made you feel like family, it was a great gift she had in relating to thousands of people, making everyone feel included and warm. Judy Garland had it, it's so rare!
Somehow it seems like Howard Stern's comments have been forgotten, and it needs to be remembered. Yes, he was a shock jock, but there's cause and effect regardless. He said it and it should follow him. If Selena hadn't been taken away so soon, she would have crossed over to the main stream big time. Crazy talent.💜🖤
@@bunnyboo6295 that was after her passing she was more in the mainstream in Mexico I remember seeing her before she passed always on the Mexican channels so when she was announcing her crossover tour I was like “ she knows English ?”” It was crazy when she passed it affected everyone there where books shirts blankets pins pens dolls purses stickers VHS clothes lots more things of hers than u can imagine ..and when Howard made fun of her on the day she was being buried !!mind you everyone was after him they did a strike in front of his building they wanted him gone !! He made a apology and was giving the hand
Woooow. That was absolutely horrible what Stern said. I was only 10 years old when Selena passed but when her movie came out I fell in love, got every album and learned all the words to every song. She was an icon, truly one of a kind.
The crazy part are the people defending Howard Stern. Another person that needs accountability is the african descent woman coworker of Howard Stern who was laughing and adding jokes along with it while the hispanic people were at their lowest including hispanic american citizens.
I was sooo triggered with that audio, I almost cried. I'm a Mexican immigrant. That is heartbreaking that he riduliculed the hardships of our people. I cant believe he continued to have a platfrom. Because I'm Mexican, I was a fan before she even passed away. She was very relatable because she was mexican and american. I enjoyed her English and Spanish music. She was an icon! Thank you for making this video!!❤❤
since you are a Mexican immigrant, I'm not sure if you're terribly familiar with Howard Stern, but I'm here to tell you as an American, he's always had an ugly soul. He always came off as hateful in my opinion. Like even the nice things he has to say about people usually have a backhanded compliment attached to them. He's just not a nice guy who doesn't have many nice things to say about anybody. I never liked him. He looks like a baboon's asshole.
❤️💯 So true!! And it is crazy that Stern is still around after his behavior. It's like society just forgave and forgot about this. I'm glad it's being brought back to the light here.
Howard stern is a piece of work!That was so disgusting and disrespectful and you can bet a lot of his fans are Mexicans that have never heard this show!!!!!
Aww So Sorry to hear! I had completely, forgotten all about this! I guess for me, I forgot bc, Selena outshines all the trash talking, ignorant fools. 💜💜💜
Im a 48 yr old from Liverpool England , I never knew anything about selena a long time ago , but when I got the internet I discovered her story , She was Beautiful , amazingly talented , Beautiful , Humble , Too Human , and such an Amazing role model for every young girl , she did amazing things before 23 , she would have ruled the pop charts and the crossover would have made her a Mega star , such a profound loss , her story still breaks my heart , so very unfair. R.I.H SELENA
I’m from New Zealand and grew up with Selena music playing. I am a male 30year old Pacific Islander btw… I recently googled the translations of some of my favourites but it’s so crazy, I already had a feeling what some of these songs meant just from how Selena sang!! Si una vez for example I already had a feeling it’d be about heart break!! Always will love you Selena! I have the best childhood memories when your music plays!!
As though one needed another reason to deeply dislike Howard Stern. Repulsive. I hope somehow, somewhere Selena knows her star still shines. This is an excellent episode. And yeah, 23 is ridiculously young. On the other side of that age, it’s scary how much one has still to experience and learn.
As a Mexican American girl from Texas that grew up listening to Selena it always cuts deep with her death. We feel as if a person in our family died. She was an icon that looked like me and that was a representation that we hadn’t until her and we haven’t had since. We mourn her potential and what could’ve been, most of all we’ll never get new music. I miss her so much and her memory lives on forever in time. Her beauty is timeless.
Now here’s another obsess fan! Selena didn’t belong to you, bc that what the whole crossover was about! I mean no harm but just saying you don’t have to be a Mexican to admire or respect for her! Just like micheal Jackson we as a community did’nt own him, bc we are black!
@@elainesewell9921she’s not saying that Selena is owned or belongs to Latinos only. She’s talking about representation. MJ is loved by the world but he means a lot more to the black community because of the barriers he broke in music for black artists. Same with Selena and the Latino community.
💜🖤 Her death was almost reminiscent to how I felt about Aaliyah’s passing. It’s just a powerful reminder to never take anything or anyone for granted. Things can take a turn for the worst so quickly. Otherwise, this was an excellent and such an informative video in her honor.
@@LatchKeyKid_78 MJ was known and loved by MANY all over the world and still is.. I heard there's a place in Africa where Michael Jackson is named as King.. Oh I will forever love MJ and The Purple One( Prince)💖💜ay they continue Riparadise 🙏🏼
I am a black Trinidadian American, I love all of Selena’s music and tejano music all together. Selena and the tejano genre inspired me to learn Spanish, even though I’m still learning lol💜🖤💜🖤
As a teenager, I was in the audience at the Astrodome for her performance at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. That’s the loudest crowd I’ve ever heard. It was an absolutely amazing performance and unforgettable experience. Halfway through the concert I saw a guy dancing on the railing of the second level of the stadium. The next thing I remember was him falling 15-20 feet to the bottom level of seating. The people he fell on were luckily not hurt, and neither was he. They all got up, and didn’t miss a beat continuing dancing to the beautiful music from the gorgeous soul named Selena.
Probably because she was so kind and trusting she didn't fully develop her sixth sense or strong gut. After all, she was still young when she died. Some young people don't develop that sense of "there's danger nearby run" until they have been in a serious situation others develop it early on through experiences. I'm sure her father had both sixth sense and a strong gut and didn't know where the danger was coming from until it was too late. I'm sure you may have felt the same way, your gut is telling you something but you don't know where the danger or a feeling of uneasiness is coming from and then it comes. It happens. I call it sixth sense 'cause that's what my grandmother called it, hers was fully developed at 25 yrs and stronger in her 50 yrs. She knew when someone was sick, when someone was coming over, when someone in the family was expecting a baby, etc. before it actually happened.
This is not Selenas father’s fault. There are many shady people and bad situations. They don’t typically end in being shot. Selena was an adult and made her choices. Yolanda was just a sick woman!
Yes it was. HE let Yolanda into the situation WITHOUT doing a background check, if he HAD he would've already known about her stealing from her past employer. Selena didn't have all the facts because HE didn't vet Yolanda, because he didn't care. You're just a dumb bish that doesn't actually know what happened.@@OhHenry2024
That's not true either, as usual people that claim to be her "Fans" still believe what her greedy family says, "oh she was just a trusting and naive airhead." SHE wasn't, she knew what Yolanda was capable of, read Chris's book. Abraham should've gotten Yolanda arrested the DAY AFTER SHE WAS FIRED and it never would've happened.@@hameley12
I am a proud Latina from an entirely different country and race, and Selena was my favorite singer and idol as a child. She is a queen and an inspiration to women and girls beyond cultural and racial barriers to this day! 💜🖤💜
I was honored to have met and talked to Selena. Chris was a friend to me and my brother a tejano musician himself .She was truly a sweet person . She is definitely missed ❤
WOW, I can't believe Stern did that! Goes to show, money can't buy class. Selena had a beautiful voice and she was on her way to stardom. What a tragic loss 😭
It angers me to no extent that he even thought that was remotely ok. There's something terribly wrong with how he thinks. I don't put it passed him, but he knows better!!!
He insulted all Mexican and the quote about eating Selena's fingers was beyond didgusting. And was is even worse is that he didn't lose his job over it.
I never heard of Selena until the movie came out when I was in college. A Mexican American student who I was friends with started to play her music for me and told me Selena’s background. I could see the love and admiration of Selena in my friend’s eyes. I didn’t fully understand, until Aaliyah died at 22 and I was HEARTBROKEN. I got it!!! 💜🖤
I keep seeing the comparisons to Aaliyah n it makes perfect sense. the talent the beauty the closeness in age but especially the way their hearts were sp pure and how beloved they were and are. it is so devastating how some of the brightest souls get dimmed well before their time
💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤 When Selena was brutally murdered the world got a little bit darker. As a Latina I and my community mourned with her family. I was at work when the news of her death arrived, the disc jockeys on the radio were in tears me and my office coworkers were in tears and did no productive work that day. March 31, 1995 is a day that will never be forgotten. If you ask anyone in my community where they were when they heard the news of her passing everyone over the age of 30? remembers 😢. RIP Queen of Tejano: Selena Quintanilla Pérez 💜🖤💜🖤💜
I am from the Puerto Rican community and it hit us extremely hard. I grew up listening to Selena and she was everything for me. I aspire to be just like her when I grew up and I just loved her. We had every album of hers that we could get a hold of. She was everything I had always wanted to be beautiful inside and out. I was devastated as a little girl of the news. I couldn’t sleep I didn’t eat while I was so depressed and upset and I couldn’t stop crying and it never has left me. Those feelings that I felt them are still hard till this day and I’m now 34 and a parent and I still get choked up every time I hear Music at interviews and see pictures of her. I still have a poster of her in my bedroom that I’ve had since I was a little girl. And on the poster I still have the movie tickets for the first time I went to see the movie with my mom and my aunt. It’s really devastating to think that people could be so crude callous inappropriate and disgusting when talking about Selena and her culture and the Latin community as a whole. I have never forgiven Howard Stern for this I don’t care how many times he’s been on the talent shows I don’t care how many times he has asked for forgiveness because his forgiveness and his words were only to stay face in front of his fans and so people wouldn’t boycott his radio show and his work. He is disgusting and awful for what he did and his racism should never be forgotten. The fact that he ignited this hate and had other people following him is disgusting. People like him should be held accountable and those that agreed with him should also be held accountable and to a higher standard. I’m glad to know that now people are starting to stand up for this and against people who just keep spreading hate and racist rhetoric amongst all communities and walks of life. It needs to stop! 💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤
it's funny you say it hit the puerto rican community extremely hard, because when jlo portrayed selena in the movie... the mexican community was extremely pissed off!
Omg ! I’m Puertorrican and 36 and grew up listening to her music. I think I was about 7 when she passed away it was such a shock. I remember singing all her songs. Good to know I’m not the only Puertorrican here
@@emmetttill148 yes, no one wants to have the discussion that lots of Latinos harbor negative feelings (to say the least) against one another. Coming from a half Mexican, half Puerto Rican person.
Literally one of my fav artists ever! Its sooo weird, I can't explain it with Selena, didn't have the privilege of meeting her in person but always feel connected to her! Sooo crazy! She was sooo beautiful, talented & seemed like such a sweetheart! She will be forever missed!!😢😢😢💜💜💜
This video is the first time I heard those horrible disgusting disrespectful things Howard Stern said about Selena! It pissed me off so much, I had to take a moment! Smdh 😡😡
@@ericabelcher8760 same! Literally never knew he said that about her, but I definitely knew he was such a butt face woman hater , all he spews about women are disgusting & disrespectful! Whoever his parents are/were hopefully disowned him & be ashamed of his behavior seriously he is scum 🦠 toxic masculinity & low vibrational clown 🤡 at best
omg yes! she died almost five years before i was born, but when i watched her biopic i instantly wanted her know more about her! i remember asking my mother about her and she had told me how famous she was. we’re from houston, so everyone knew of her. i used to and still do watch her old interviews and live performances because there’s something so captivating about her! i wish it’s crazy how we feel such a connection with people we don’t know 💜
She really did what she wanted to be remembered for...." I tried to help ppl , and i tried to make a difference." she was a positive role model ..... Many changed their lives because she spoke out against being involved in gangs...done speeches about the importance of education...staying away from drugs, etc . Gave to others when she could . That is why she had an impact like she did.
Reading the comments, it’s so sweet how a Mexican American artist who mostly sang in Spanish, has brought so many people together, even if they didn’t understand Spanish lol. Her legacy will always live on.
What a tragedy. Selena was a young Latina on her way to (crossover) superstardom. Had been listening to her music on a juke box for several years at my local Mexican restaurant. They always played her music. I loved her voice. The day she passed, I was at this restaurant when the waiter raced over to us, crying, giving us the news. We were baffled since we didn't know her name. He reminded us that we always raved about her songs. I've never forgotten that night or what could have been. Thank you, Karine, for your loving tribute to the late, great Selena!💜🖤💜🖤
Selena has got to be my favourite singer ever. At so many levels I relate to her. Trusting wrong person at wrong time can be harmful and even deadly at times. Thankyou for covering her life story for the broader audience and educating her legacy ❤️
When ever I think of Selena’s tragedy I always think about the fact that she lived so much life in such a short amount of time, yet not at all” She will always be frozen in time. I was a child when she died and now I am double the age when she died.
🖤When she died i was in my twenties and having children i love her music and did not know about Howard Stern disrespecting her and the Latin community as a Latin American i am saddened and appalled there is a difference between crude and funny and someone his age and ethnicity should know better thank you for letting it know and bringing it to light💜
Early bird here! Sooo happy you are re-uploading old breakdowns with recent news!🎊✨ Howard is another one who love to go against the grain for attention and not really the nice kind. Prison is a safe place for Yolanda because once she is out she ain't stayin alive for too long.. RIP Selena 🙏🏻💐❤
🖤 Selena was an idol for me from 1993-1995 and she was the reason why I wanted to be a singer at some point! She will NEVER be forgotten ❤🥰🤩 Thank you for this video. This was so Nostalgic for me ❤
Im black born in 1998. I grew up on the Selena movie. I would watch on repeat. First I learned the songs. And then I translated them all to English. Selena was the beginning of my billingual journey ❤ I love her Spanish music and an absolute Stan of the real Selena. I appreciate JLo doing her thing capturing her spirit so well 🎥
I have never in my life heard this and people should definitely talk about it!!! Wow Girl I am pissed off, as a Texas native this just bothered me we love and respect Selena so much I can’t even wrap my head around them saying things like that about her and the Mexican community as a whole. How disgusting and racist can you be? Ugh goes to show you how little black and brown people are respected in the industry because that should’ve ended his career
“Cancel culture” is not a real thing. It’s a term created to mock those who created the term “r*pe culture”. Also, no one has ever even been “cancelled” Fr so where even is the idea that it’s a real thing to even coming from?? 🙄
I'm a white woman and Stern disgusts me too - always has - and no, if I were in the same room with him I wouldn't acknowledge him either. Aside from that, RIP Selena.😢
Every culture has bigotry scumbags around there, they don't truly represent that culture. It is that 1-2% that ruins it for the rest. I'm a hispanic, and I'll admit it, there is discrimination within the hispanic culture as well.
💜🖤 She was beautiful from the inside and out . Reading her husband’s book was a reminder that she was amazing and very talented . Totally recommend people reading it .
She’s on my vision board for fashion and makeup. I’m actually going to do a limited edition for my makeup business in her honor . I loved her since I was a kid! She was one of the first artist I listened too .
This is something that I heard about when it comes to Howard Stern. It's why I could never allow myself to even go near the radio dial to pull up his station! The man is completely disgusting. I don't think I want to hear the horrible things he said about. Selena.💜🖤
Stern was a product of a time when entertainment was starting to push all the boundaries of the previous ultra conservative censorship. This was what was considered progressive in the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. Rude, politically incorrect, anti religion and morals entertainment. And we get to enjoy the plethora of amazing, empty, and vulgar entertainment that is the norm today. Enjoy.
I think this is my favorite narrative on Selena I have ever heard. I am Latina and the same age as Selena but I was only somewhat aware of her. I didn't know much until the tragedy of her murder. I was completely unaware how disrespectful howard stern was, thank you for spending time explaining that.
I'm a Hispanic 5 gen Texan, I grew up in the "hood" so my family didn't listen to Tejano music. But after her death, we saw how it affected people in our State and started listening to her music as well as other Tejano. She is royalty here in Texas amongst the Latino community.
I was thinking that exact thing! She’s an okay dancer but she never would have blown up so big in the acting world if she hadn’t acted in Selena. Also her music is average at best and several of her songs were apparently sung by someone else.🙄 Selena was a true talent with a big heart and I hate that she was taken so soon!😩
One of those "strange" moments that is frozen in time is when a "young child" met Selena and talked about how sweet she was. Remembering her smile, and her waving at her as she walked away from meeting her. That young child would grow to the woman we know today as...Beyonce! The thing that hurts me so much when I read her story and the details of her death is that it could have been avoided! 1. The Doctors reported that if the bullet would have been just 2 centimeters toward her shoulder, she would have survived this. It hit a major artery. 2. She never ever should have gone to get anything from that woman. When you found out she may have been stealing, from that point on you let a Lawyer, CPA or Agent handle it. You cease all contact. But it shows that she truly trusted and loved that lady which makes this even more sad! She actually lived long enough to run to the Hotel lobby for help and even talk but collapsed in the Lobby. That woman (I refuse to say her name) chased after her calling her a "B" and screaming "I'm going to kill you." And what set her off was when Selena took the ring, she gave her off to tell her she didn't think they could be friends. The Officers said if she had not done that, she would still be alive. And she was clutching the ring when the Officers got to her in the Lobby which is why they included that scene of the ring dropping from her hand in the movie! It's so cryptic because there was a part of her still at least contemplating and "holding on" to the friendship at the end before she was shot. So, she was running after she was shot clutching that damn ring! I get so angry, and I hate to admit that I sometimes even get angry with Selena. I'm like, "Damn girl if you would have just sent a Lawyer or CPA to talk to that woman! If you just didn't trust her so much!" But that's hard for an empathic person to do. The one thing I am glad about is that she did not have to go through what I know she would have gone through... since she was so beautiful. Now that these stories are coming out about Hollywood, can you imagine such a sweet and gorgeous girl like her, moving into movies, only to encounter a Harvey Weinstein? And with her being so sweet and kind and trusting those sharks would have eaten that girl alive! And she was rising fast! So, she would have encountered them. So, in some strange cryptic way, perhaps God had to take her body, to "preserve and protect" the beauty, that was her soul. And it is that thought that helps me when I think of her. She was too "innocent" for that industry!
She had a shark of a father so I doubt that would have happened to her. And Selena even tho was 23 she was a veteran plus married . She was protected but unfortunately she wanted to deal w Yolanda by herself. How evil to draw a gun to a friend and shoot her in the back. Selena turned her back and that’s when Yolanda shot her. She felt so weak she dropped everything and adrenaline had her running to the lobby…which if she didn’t maybe she would be alive today
I blame that shark of a father for sheltering her too much. I had the same type of raising and it bodes no good. It makes you unprepared for the real world. I'm lucky that I was able to stumble and navigate through. Her father is the one who brought Yolanda in because he really didn't know the business and wanted someone cheap.
I agree, Selena was way too trusting, even Chris Perez said in an interview, I think it was a 20/20 interview, "She was always giving people the benefit of the doubt, and look where it got her."
You should probably read Chris’s book about Selena, he has stories about her having breakdowns and crying about her father; with the pressures of fame.
The news of her death was even reported here in New Zealand. She only put out good but recieved some vitriol in return. She was a beautiful, kind, level headed, and talented young woman. Imagine where she could have been if it weren't for others actions. She had everything going for her 😢 💜🖤💜🖤

@Karine Alourde, thankyou for this video! We need to expose the injustice. I truly feel that 'Chris Perez" needs his own story. Too many secrets. Untold facts about the Selena saga. Besides Abraham and his wife, I don't think anyone suffered more than Chris Perez. Do the research and you will find out.
I respect you for covering this... if I remember a while ago, you said you were a Scorpio ( forgive me if I'm wrong ) Scorpio's are typically known to be sensitive to other people's feelings. Even if you're not or don't believe in star signs, I can't imagine how you held it together to create this video while covering the part of Evil Stern, my blood is still boiling just listening to it, I hope her family held him accountable, he's absolutely disgusting 😢 love from London UK ❤ 🇬🇧❤
OMG, I love Selena, add all her albums both Spanish and English, may she forever's rest in peace❤

He's just overall a really negative person who thinks he's all that when he's not
For real. And them calling her a “Mexican-American version of Madonna”… not even close! Selena was an original and the color of her skin didn’t make her a “copy“ of anyone else.
Agreed!
I am a Black woman who grew up in Dallas, and as a child, I remember mourning Selena in the same way that I mourned Aaliyah. Long may she rest
❤❤❤
Same here! I had her CD!
Fr they remind me of each other so sad they passed so soon 🕊️🕊️🩷
Yes! I grew up in Dallas too and I mourned Selena so bad. I mourned Aaliyah just the same. 3/31/95 and 8/25/01 will always stick with me.

Selena’s father took her out of public school while she was in the 8th grade. She enrolled in the American School of Correspondence and also was accepted into the Pacific University where her major was Business Administration. Selena was an advocate and role model for kids to stay in school. Selena was a remarkable young woman with many talents and a kind heart. She will continue to be loved for who she was as a person for many years to come.
She recorded Dreaming of you on first take.
She never exercised. She danced a lot is how she kept in shape.
She loved Pizza.
She went on runs for exercise too.
She had an INCREDIBLE body! Like Brick-house status.
Yea , she definitely loved pizza I found out.

In March of '95 I was still 22. And I remember where I was when I heard the tragic news. Selena was to us Latinos what Aaliyah is to African Americans. Both very positive, beautiful and successful young women who's life was tragically cut too soon.
Factz😢❤❤❤
And both had radio personalities mock their deaths.
I was 22 also and remember my mom called me to tell me to put on the news that Selena had been shot. When I saw and heard she had died, I broke down crying. I was a fan of her music and loved her style. I went into months of depression over her death and my family couldn’t understand why bc I never met her but she was an icon for us latinos and many girls looked up to her. Yolanda Salivar is a demon!
Yes she IS the Latin Aaliyah! Wow I never thought of it like that.
They were both STUNNING.
And we loved her too! 💜
I ALWAYS loved Selena (as a black woman in TX), she was just IT for all of us in the 90s. May she continue to RIP. She was beautiful inside and out, and loved ALL of her fans.
That's exactly how we (Black Women) in Louisiana felt about her and still do.
I’m a Black woman and when I was in middle school I saw Selena the movie. That’s how I discovered who Selena Quintenilla was and she was soooooo amazing. Multi-talented and just GORGEOUS. I wish she was still here.😔
Me too! I’ve loved Selena ever since. She seemed like such a beautiful person inside and out.
Quintanilla-PEREZ. She was married at the time of her death.
@@katemaloney4296 No shit..
Not being shady but how was Selena multi talented?? 🤔 just wondering
A lot us fell in love with her after the movie especially if you weren’t Mexican, Mexican american and didn’t speak Spanish. Man I still cry watching her movie.
Born and raised Mexican here 🤚
Thank you my melaninated brothers and sisters, for respecting Selena's memory. What Howard Stern and his team said on that recording about Selena is disgusting. No mercy, no grace, no empathy for her family, her friends, her husband and her fans. Her death was devastating in the Mexican community. She was it. At that time, she was able to break out into the U.S music scene. Us, Mexicans, finally had representation in music by a female singer, Someone that looks like "us" made it in the U.S music industry! To us, that was a big deal. We were finally able to see a Mexican woman as the star and not the housekeeper. Nobody asked me, but those are my two-cents on the situation. Thank you.
Right! I felt that she was a morena skin black hair gorgeous woman who looked like us and had that it factor! We were so proud! Now in days they try and push those whitexicans that dont even truly represents us or look like us!
@96MEXICALI. Hey, no one asked me either yet I’m responding because truly I agree 💯 percent with you and I just wanted to say I’m a older woman in my fifties skin as pale as Snow White and dark hair but I was built very very voluptuous from preteen and up back when pencil straight & thin was the normal for people like me .I’m in no no way conceited at all I’m actually shy and to myself but to get you to understand that I felt I was different and didn’t fit in bcuz I had the cinched waste hips and booty like Selena .very white skin green eyes and long dark hair. Well then I met several Mexicans at work and realized I fit in perfectly with them and that nothing was wrong with me bcuz I wasn’t built like a pencil! I learned pretty fluent to speak Spanish and I moved to a community , it was a small town near bigger towns but majority were Mexican then few Puerto Ricans , black and very few white. I have so much respect for the Mexican people and they taught me to cook and most of these people had such skills I never had being a city girl and they coming from Mexico most were farmers and I’m telling you the community was kept clean and you could feel the unity in the neighborhood and I truly enjoyed living there and met some of the nicest people. A lot people told me stories about how they had to pay gangs off if they even wanted to sell fruit on a corner and they had to pay the commandante bcuz a lot of them were corrupt bcuz they got threatened by different gangs/ cartels and they had such work ethic it was unbelievable. They truly appreciated being here in the states and being able to work & most of the people worked in the fields picking cilantro or other greens or worked in the factory to send the veggies / fruit to the local supermarkets. I grew to love and respect them and in general the culture.Selena was a real person they could speak of and Americans knew who she was and loved her and Americans did too and we love her still. She has helped so so many girls to be proud of the different brown complexions and shapely bodies . She just truly was so real whenever she spoke even in interviews. She was stolen from this world too soon and she still remains A legend. People have adored her for longer then years she was alive. A beautiful soul inside even more beautiful than her outside. Sorry to message so long I don’t even talk on Facebook or tic tok Instagram nada but , I understand what she represented to the Mexican people and I only was in one town in one city in one country and I seen the impact on a lot of lil girls and well all ages . Wanted to share that truly I have alot respect for the Mexican people and I pray for change with all the troubles with violence in Mexico and things going on especially to the people just trying to work , live and provide and can’t bcuz cartel rivalry. Trust me my country is a mess too with shootings everywhere as well. I hope Selena’s soul is in such peace in Heaven 🕯☮️💟🙏🏽🕊
@@NanaD-ve9ttEverything you say is so true!! The majority of Mexicans are wonderful people. They come here to work and make a better life for their families. It just makes me so angry the way our ex- president and all these people who support him talk about them!! Especially, all those so news people on Fox news. I am old now and have associated with people from many different ethnic groups, and I have found the majority of people just want to live in peace. They want to own their own home, have a good school system for their children, and make enough money to support their families. I am so sick of all the hatred in this country. Yes, Howard Stern is one of the people who normalized horrible behavior and he made a fortune off of it!! It is totally disgusting what he said about Selena after she died!!
You're welcome❤❤❤❤❤❤
Well I asked you and Honor your 2. Cents, I loved the moon Goddiz
Her anesthetics were so on point. She definitely had an eye for fashion. Some of those looks so current even today. 😮 Ive been listening to Selena AI songs with her voice singing cureent songs. Really makes you think the amazing music she couldve given us.
anesthetics?😂🤣I guess she was relieving peoples pain with her music then..😜
Selena and Aaliyah were so beautiful, talented, and died tragic deaths so young. 💔
She should be in prison forever
She wasn't just loved by Mexican Americans and Mexicans, she was loved by almost anyone who understood Spanish and the lyrics in her songs. My Puerto Rican family loved her as well as the Mexican American side as well.
I don’t speak Spanish and I love her music 😂

Yep. Whitey here and I loved Selena. The loss of all that she could have become is just beyond sad. It's a tragedy.
I'm an Italian - American from New York State who's been a HUGE Selena fan for going on 26 years. She had a combination of vocal talent, stylistic versatility, charisma and class that was, and will always remain, without equal. There will never be another like her. And, Howard Stern is a NOBODY.He's never achieved anything that anyone will ever consider to be REMOTELY important, and he never will. Selena is a LEGEND who will be remembered, loved and respected FOREVER. 50 years from now, nobody will know or care who Howard Stern was. Not that anyone with a brain cares NOW.
I’m African American I don’t understand nor speak Spanish but when I listen to selena all of a sudden I’m bilingual

Selena and Chris were friends of my coworker when i worked in Marketing at SeaWorld, and she was going to do a concert there that weekend. He was so excited to see them and they planned to go out to dinner after the show. There were stacks of posters for the Selena concert we were going to put up. That afternoon we found out that she had been murdered. It was so awful! And in five minutes, someone had stolen all of the posters of Selena....it was disgusting and a horrible reminder that people can do despicable things...

So sad.....😔
@@danavixen6274
She is still greatly loved in Texas, and of course, internationally. She had started a clothing line and opened a store on Broadway in San Antonio called, SELENA, which was there until quite recently. My husband is a sound engineer when she performed at the Alamodome, and met her dad, and has run into him a few times in the last several years. He has been always trying to launch the next big star, but no one was anywhere near Selena. He was still out there promoting, probably thinking he could make magic again, not realizing how it wasn't about him, but that his daughter was one in a million. My husband said it was very sad to see him desperately attempting to recreate success.
@@christineparis5607 I can believe it! Thank you for your response! I'm honored! So glad you were fortunate to meet the great Selena and her beloved husband Chris Perez. I love Chris's memoir btw! I have respect for Selena's family. I have love for the '97 biopic as well as the recent Netflix docuseries. However, I don't agree with her father Abraham's quest to find the next Selena. His daughter is IRREPLACEABLE! This is EERILY similar to Aaliyah's uncle Barry Hankerson seeking out singers who try to emulate his ICONIC niece. Aaliyah will NEVER be duplicated as well! 🙅🏾♀️
@@danavixen6274
Your comment was fascinating! I didnt know about other dads who were driven like that, but I can imagine that they just can't bear the loss and want to recreate the past somehow. Very sad. My friend was very sad for a long time. He said that Selena made you feel like family, it was a great gift she had in relating to thousands of people, making everyone feel included and warm. Judy Garland had it, it's so rare!
Somehow it seems like Howard Stern's comments have been forgotten, and it needs to be remembered. Yes, he was a shock jock, but there's cause and effect regardless. He said it and it should follow him.
If Selena hadn't been taken away so soon, she would have crossed over to the main stream big time. Crazy talent.💜🖤
Shock jocks are the scum of the earth
Agree wholeheartedly!!! He is such a prude pig towards society! Especially towards women he is so disgusting to me tbh fkn yuck 🤢
Wasn't she mainstream she was on the radio all the time in America maybe not the Spanish song so much but that song dreaming of you tonight
@@bunnyboo6295 that was after her passing she was more in the mainstream in Mexico I remember seeing her before she passed always on the Mexican channels so when she was announcing her crossover tour I was like “ she knows English ?”” It was crazy when she passed it affected everyone there where books shirts blankets pins pens dolls purses stickers VHS clothes lots more things of hers than u can imagine ..and when Howard made fun of her on the day she was being buried !!mind you everyone was after him they did a strike in front of his building they wanted him gone !! He made a apology and was giving the hand
Howard Stern is left-wing so the media would not show many of his past transgressions.
Woooow. That was absolutely horrible what Stern said. I was only 10 years old when Selena passed but when her movie came out I fell in love, got every album and learned all the words to every song. She was an icon, truly one of a kind.
The crazy part are the people defending Howard Stern. Another person that needs accountability is the african descent woman coworker of Howard Stern who was laughing and adding jokes along with it while the hispanic people were at their lowest including hispanic american citizens.
I was sooo triggered with that audio, I almost cried. I'm a Mexican immigrant. That is heartbreaking that he riduliculed the hardships of our people. I cant believe he continued to have a platfrom.
Because I'm Mexican, I was a fan before she even passed away. She was very relatable because she was mexican and american. I enjoyed her English and Spanish music. She was an icon! Thank you for making this video!!❤❤
since you are a Mexican immigrant, I'm not sure if you're terribly familiar with Howard Stern, but I'm here to tell you as an American, he's always had an ugly soul. He always came off as hateful in my opinion. Like even the nice things he has to say about people usually have a backhanded compliment attached to them. He's just not a nice guy who doesn't have many nice things to say about anybody. I never liked him. He looks like a baboon's asshole.
❤️💯 So true!!
And it is crazy that Stern is still around after his behavior. It's like society just forgave and forgot about this. I'm glad it's being brought back to the light here.
Howard stern is a piece of work!That was so disgusting and disrespectful and you can bet a lot of his fans are Mexicans that have never heard this show!!!!!
I've never liked that guy, karma is a b****
Aww So Sorry to hear! I had completely, forgotten all about this! I guess for me, I forgot bc, Selena outshines all the trash talking, ignorant fools. 💜💜💜
Im a 48 yr old from Liverpool England , I never knew anything about selena a long time ago , but when I got the internet I discovered her story , She was Beautiful , amazingly talented , Beautiful , Humble , Too Human , and such an Amazing role model for every young girl , she did amazing things before 23 , she would have ruled the pop charts and the crossover would have made her a Mega star , such a profound loss , her story still breaks my heart , so very unfair.

I’m from New Zealand and grew up with Selena music playing. I am a male 30year old Pacific Islander btw… I recently googled the translations of some of my favourites but it’s so crazy, I already had a feeling what some of these songs meant just from how Selena sang!!

As though one needed another reason to deeply dislike Howard Stern. Repulsive. I hope somehow, somewhere Selena knows her star still shines. This is an excellent episode. And yeah, 23 is ridiculously young. On the other side of that age, it’s scary how much one has still to experience and learn.

As a Mexican American girl from Texas that grew up listening to Selena it always cuts deep with her death. We feel as if a person in our family died. She was an icon that looked like me and that was a representation that we hadn’t until her and we haven’t had since. We mourn her potential and what could’ve been, most of all we’ll never get new music. I miss her so much and her memory lives on forever in time. Her beauty is timeless.

Now here’s another obsess fan! Selena didn’t belong to you, bc that what the whole crossover was about! I mean no harm but just saying you don’t have to be a Mexican to admire or respect for her! Just like micheal Jackson we as a community did’nt own him, bc we are black!

As a teenager, I was in the audience at the Astrodome for her performance at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. That’s the loudest crowd I’ve ever heard. It was an absolutely amazing performance and unforgettable experience. Halfway through the concert I saw a guy dancing on the railing of the second level of the stadium. The next thing I remember was him falling 15-20 feet to the bottom level of seating. The people he fell on were luckily not hurt, and neither was he. They all got up, and didn’t miss a beat continuing dancing to the beautiful music from the gorgeous soul named Selena.
I hate how Selena’s dad was so suspicious and concerned over Chris Perez…He should of been suspicious of Yolanda !
Probably because she was so kind and trusting she didn't fully develop her sixth sense or strong gut. After all, she was still young when she died. Some young people don't develop that sense of "there's danger nearby run" until they have been in a serious situation others develop it early on through experiences. I'm sure her father had both sixth sense and a strong gut and didn't know where the danger was coming from until it was too late.
I'm sure you may have felt the same way, your gut is telling you something but you don't know where the danger or a feeling of uneasiness is coming from and then it comes. It happens. I call it sixth sense 'cause that's what my grandmother called it, hers was fully developed at 25 yrs and stronger in her 50 yrs. She knew when someone was sick, when someone was coming over, when someone in the family was expecting a baby, etc. before it actually happened.
This is not Selenas father’s fault.
There are many shady people and bad situations. They don’t typically end in being shot.
Selena was an adult and made her choices. Yolanda was just a sick woman!
Yes it was. HE let Yolanda into the situation WITHOUT doing a background check, if he HAD he would've already known about her stealing from her past employer. Selena didn't have all the facts because HE didn't vet Yolanda, because he didn't care. You're just a dumb bish that doesn't actually know what happened.@@OhHenry2024
That's not true either, as usual people that claim to be her "Fans" still believe what her greedy family says, "oh she was just a trusting and naive airhead." SHE wasn't, she knew what Yolanda was capable of, read Chris's book. Abraham should've gotten Yolanda arrested the DAY AFTER SHE WAS FIRED and it never would've happened.@@hameley12
He wasn't suspicious of Yolanda because he and Yolanda are both narcissists that wanted to control Selena.

It angers me to no extent that he even thought that was remotely ok. There's something terribly wrong with how he thinks. I don't put it passed him, but he knows better!!!

When Selena was brutally murdered the world got a little bit darker. As a Latina I and my community mourned with her family. I was at work when the news of her death arrived, the disc jockeys on the radio were in tears me and my office coworkers were in tears and did no productive work that day. March 31, 1995 is a day that will never be forgotten. If you ask anyone in my community where they were when they heard the news of her passing everyone over the age of 30? remembers 😢. RIP Queen of Tejano: Selena Quintanilla Pérez 💜🖤💜🖤💜
I am from the Puerto Rican community and it hit us extremely hard. I grew up listening to Selena and she was everything for me. I aspire to be just like her when I grew up and I just loved her. We had every album of hers that we could get a hold of. She was everything I had always wanted to be beautiful inside and out. I was devastated as a little girl of the news. I couldn’t sleep I didn’t eat while I was so depressed and upset and I couldn’t stop crying and it never has left me. Those feelings that I felt them are still hard till this day and I’m now 34 and a parent and I still get choked up every time I hear Music at interviews and see pictures of her. I still have a poster of her in my bedroom that I’ve had since I was a little girl. And on the poster I still have the movie tickets for the first time I went to see the movie with my mom and my aunt. It’s really devastating to think that people could be so crude callous inappropriate and disgusting when talking about Selena and her culture and the Latin community as a whole. I have never forgiven Howard Stern for this I don’t care how many times he’s been on the talent shows I don’t care how many times he has asked for forgiveness because his forgiveness and his words were only to stay face in front of his fans and so people wouldn’t boycott his radio show and his work. He is disgusting and awful for what he did and his racism should never be forgotten. The fact that he ignited this hate and had other people following him is disgusting. People like him should be held accountable and those that agreed with him should also be held accountable and to a higher standard. I’m glad to know that now people are starting to stand up for this and against people who just keep spreading hate and racist rhetoric amongst all communities and walks of life. It needs to stop! 💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤
it's funny you say it hit the puerto rican community extremely hard, because when jlo portrayed selena in the movie... the mexican community was extremely pissed off!
Omg ! I’m Puertorrican and 36 and grew up listening to her music. I think I was about 7 when she passed away it was such a shock. I remember singing all her songs. Good to know I’m not the only Puertorrican here
Yeah he has always been a racist
@@emmetttill148 yes, no one wants to have the discussion that lots of Latinos harbor negative feelings (to say the least) against one another. Coming from a half Mexican, half Puerto Rican person.
Me too I’m proud Puerto Rican and I grew up loving her music and her family and Chris . No hate she’s a legend . ❤
I feel bad that the only way I knew of her was because of her death. She had so much more ahead of her. Rest In Peace, beautiful! ♥️
Beautiful video on this icon. RIP Selena💜🖤🙏🏾🕊️
Literally one of my fav artists ever! Its sooo weird, I can't explain it with Selena, didn't have the privilege of meeting her in person but always feel connected to her! Sooo crazy! She was sooo beautiful, talented & seemed like such a sweetheart! She will be forever missed!!😢😢😢💜💜💜
This video is the first time I heard those horrible disgusting disrespectful things Howard Stern said about Selena! It pissed me off so much, I had to take a moment! Smdh 😡😡
@@ericabelcher8760 same! Literally never knew he said that about her, but I definitely knew he was such a butt face woman hater , all he spews about women are disgusting & disrespectful! Whoever his parents are/were hopefully disowned him & be ashamed of his behavior seriously he is scum 🦠 toxic masculinity & low vibrational clown 🤡 at best
There was something almost mystical about her connection with her fans
omg yes! she died almost five years before i was born, but when i watched her biopic i instantly wanted her know more about her! i remember asking my mother about her and she had told me how famous she was. we’re from houston, so everyone knew of her. i used to and still do watch her old interviews and live performances because there’s something so captivating about her! i wish it’s crazy how we feel such a connection with people we don’t know 💜
She really did what she wanted to be remembered for...." I tried to help ppl , and i tried to make a difference." she was a positive role model ..... Many changed their lives because she spoke out against being involved in gangs...done speeches about the importance of education...staying away from drugs, etc . Gave to others when she could . That is why she had an impact like she did.
Im from Costa Rica and we love Selena and we still cry thinking about her.
I still listen to her music. I enjoy it. A true artist whom was taken away from us too soon. She was beautiful, talented and so humble.
Yep, timeless. It will never go out of style.
Selena is sacred to us!!! I’m a Mexican in TX (accountant, Howard Stern, with an education, never lived in a cardboard box 🤬). He simply disgusts me.
Stereotypes are made up by small minded people who don’t actually know anyone.
Her influence still reigns strong.
I wish she was still alive rip Selena 💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤
Reading the comments, it’s so sweet how a Mexican American artist who mostly sang in Spanish, has brought so many people together, even if they didn’t understand Spanish lol. Her legacy will always live on.
What a tragedy. Selena was a young Latina on her way to (crossover) superstardom. Had been listening to her music on a juke box for several years at my local Mexican restaurant. They always played her music. I loved her voice. The day she passed, I was at this restaurant when the waiter raced over to us, crying, giving us the news. We were baffled since we didn't know her name. He reminded us that we always raved about her songs. I've never forgotten that night or what could have been. Thank you, Karine, for your loving tribute to the late, great Selena!💜🖤💜🖤
💜🤍🕊️ RIP Selena. And Thank you, Karine for this respectful video. Keep it up!👍🏾
Selena has got to be my favourite singer ever. At so many levels I relate to her. Trusting wrong person at wrong time can be harmful and even deadly at times. Thankyou for covering her life story for the broader audience and educating her legacy ❤️
Selena will never
be forgotten
She should never
have died
She will live on
in the music
She sang and in
the hearts
Of everyone who
met and loved her.
💜🖤 WOW, I had no idea about any of this! Thank you for this video!
My mom once told me, "Sometimes your best friend can turn out to be your worst enemy..."
And she was right. Rest in peace, Selena 💜🖤💜🖤
that’s overall wisdom ..not just your moms
When ever I think of Selena’s tragedy I always think about the fact
that she lived so much life in such a short amount of time, yet not at all” She will always be frozen in time. I was a child when she died and now I am double the age when she died.
She Is Texas's Beautiful Rose!
She will always be Loved!
We miss her! And She still lives
through her music.
💜🖤🕊💜🕊🖤💜
I'm Puerto Rican and I love Selena's music! She is known all over, I wish she wasn't gone so soon, RIP.
Selena was a beautiful soul and may she live on in our hearts 🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜
🖤When she died i was in my twenties and having children i love her music and did not know about Howard Stern disrespecting her and the Latin community as a Latin American i am saddened and appalled there is a difference between crude and funny and someone his age and ethnicity should know better thank you for letting it know and bringing it to light💜
Early bird here! Sooo happy you are re-uploading old breakdowns with recent news!🎊✨ Howard is another one who love to go against the grain for attention and not really the nice kind. Prison is a safe place for Yolanda because once she is out she ain't stayin alive for too long.. RIP Selena 🙏🏻💐❤
🖤 Selena was an idol for me from 1993-1995 and she was the reason why I wanted to be a singer at some point! She will NEVER be forgotten ❤🥰🤩 Thank you for this video. This was so Nostalgic for me ❤
thank you ms.karine for doing story on this beautiful singer selena love you selena.
as I a African American fan I was a small child when she died, I grew up on her music . I love music and her still 💜🖤
Im black born in 1998. I grew up on the Selena movie. I would watch on repeat. First I learned the songs. And then I translated them all to English. Selena was the beginning of my billingual journey ❤ I love her Spanish music and an absolute Stan of the real Selena. I appreciate JLo doing her thing capturing her spirit so well 🎥
Once again you did an outstanding job with your storytelling and your content.
I love Selena❤❤❤ R.I.P to her❤❤❤❤
I have never in my life heard this and people should definitely talk about it!!! Wow
Girl I am pissed off, as a Texas native this just bothered me we love and respect Selena so much I can’t even wrap my head around them saying things like that about her and the Mexican community as a whole. How disgusting and racist can you be? Ugh goes to show you how little black and brown people are respected in the industry because that should’ve ended his career
Facts
You’re right. I think if he had said that today he’d be cancelled. He should still be.
He talks worse about black people. Calling us N words and all.
Such beautiful photos. Thank you for sharing.
I’m not into cancel culture, but this guy definitely deserves it.
There’s no such thing as cancel culture. It’s called accountability and consequences.
@@fieldysgrl98Period
@@fieldysgrl98yeah…cancel culture
@@ssjssgecko5411buzz words to make people act like they’re upset about something
“Cancel culture” is not a real thing. It’s a term created to mock those who created the term “r*pe culture”. Also, no one has ever even been “cancelled” Fr so where even is the idea that it’s a real thing to even coming from?? 🙄
Adore Selena forever and always!!!
Howard Stern is the worst!!!!
She was one of a kind - truly!!!! I could have seen her on Broadway! So sad. Rest in peace.
I knew Howard Stern was a shock jock but I had no idea about this. I'm beyond disgusted by him. Some things are not meant to be made fun of.🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤
Right!!!
He is low brow as you can get him n that disgrace Robyn
He is Woke now 🙄
@@Oyuki-Mayonesa Yeah, fake woke I'm sure."🙄
🖤💜really appreciate the women you highlight and their stories. Selena, Aaliyah and Left Eye were my childhood favs
🇲🇽 💜🖤 I love your videos Ms. Alourde thank you for always telling the truth
I'm a white woman and Stern disgusts me too - always has - and no, if I were in the same room with him I wouldn't acknowledge him either. Aside from that, RIP Selena.😢
Every culture has bigotry scumbags around there, they don't truly represent that culture. It is that 1-2% that ruins it for the rest. I'm a hispanic, and I'll admit it, there is discrimination within the hispanic culture as well.
💜🖤 She was beautiful from the inside and out .
Reading her husband’s book was a reminder that she was amazing and very talented . Totally recommend people reading it .
Straight up❤ really great book
Gone to soon, will nvr be forgotten...rest in paradise beautiful girl🕊️💜🖤
She’s on my vision board for fashion and makeup. I’m actually going to do a limited edition for my makeup business in her honor . I loved her since I was a kid! She was one of the first artist I listened too .
If you ever need a influencer or model to try on your makeup brand I’d so be down and interested to model for it❤❤❤
@@SoulieNovamusic yeah! Absolutely! I’m launching everything next May so I’m still testing products now actually
This will be a blessed venture! Good luck to you. I think it's a great idea!🥰✊🏾🙏🏾
Sad thing is Yolanda is my age, 62 years old, she lived to be 62, and Selena didn't make it past the age of 25
23 years old at the time she was killed. She is longer death than the time she lived in this world.
Didn’t she just get out of prison
Everything was well put together, and the beautiful music just made it more beautiful.
This is something that I heard about when it comes to Howard Stern. It's why I could never allow myself to even go near the radio dial to pull up his station! The man is completely disgusting. I don't think I want to hear the horrible things he said about. Selena.💜🖤
Stern was a product of a time when entertainment was starting to push all the boundaries of the previous ultra conservative censorship. This was what was considered progressive in the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. Rude, politically incorrect, anti religion and morals entertainment. And we get to enjoy the plethora of amazing, empty, and vulgar entertainment that is the norm today. Enjoy.
@@lisettes.9598 lmfao nowhere near the content of today is as repulsive as that man that’s why his radio show isn’t as accessible

I think this is my favorite narrative on Selena I have ever heard. I am Latina and the same age as Selena but I was only somewhat aware of her. I didn't know much until the tragedy of her murder. I was completely unaware how disrespectful howard stern was, thank you for spending time explaining that.
Not her pronouncing it’s horrible she’s not it
@@franchescazamora1726you aren’t making sense. Please be respectful.
💜 🖤 thank you for this video!! I learned so much more from thee Tejano Queen!!
I love Selena!! I always loved her music AND her spirit. She was so charming and cared about her fans.
I'm a Hispanic 5 gen Texan, I grew up in the "hood" so my family didn't listen to Tejano music. But after her death, we saw how it affected people in our State and started listening to her music as well as other Tejano. She is royalty here in Texas amongst the Latino community.
… and the black community in Texas ❤
Yes and definitely the black community here in Texas. We love her also.
May she rest peacefully.
She is Texas royalty period
Next year will be 30 years since she passed. Rest in power Queen Selena.
If She was not killed, JLo would have never been a thing 🤷
I was thinking that exact thing! She’s an okay dancer but she never would have blown up so big in the acting world if she hadn’t acted in Selena. Also her music is average at best and several of her songs were apparently sung by someone else.🙄 Selena was a true talent with a big heart and I hate that she was taken so soon!😩
Facts
Exactly! She can’t even sing!
Exactly 💯
I actually disagree with this. I believe JLo would've been successful regardless but portraying Selena definitely helped her career
One of those "strange" moments that is frozen in time is when a "young child" met Selena and talked about how sweet she was. Remembering her smile, and her waving at her as she walked away from meeting her. That young child would grow to the woman we know today as...Beyonce! The thing that hurts me so much when I read her story and the details of her death is that it could have been avoided!
1. The Doctors reported that if the bullet would have been just 2 centimeters toward her shoulder, she would have survived this. It hit a major artery.
2. She never ever should have gone to get anything from that woman. When you found out she may have been stealing, from that point on you let a Lawyer, CPA or Agent handle it. You cease all contact. But it shows that she truly trusted and loved that lady which makes this even more sad! She actually lived long enough to run to the Hotel lobby for help and even talk but collapsed in the Lobby. That woman (I refuse to say her name) chased after her calling her a "B" and screaming "I'm going to kill you." And what set her off was when Selena took the ring, she gave her off to tell her she didn't think they could be friends. The Officers said if she had not done that, she would still be alive. And she was clutching the ring when the Officers got to her in the Lobby which is why they included that scene of the ring dropping from her hand in the movie! It's so cryptic because there was a part of her still at least contemplating and "holding on" to the friendship at the end before she was shot. So, she was running after she was shot clutching that damn ring! I get so angry, and I hate to admit that I sometimes even get angry with Selena. I'm like, "Damn girl if you would have just sent a Lawyer or CPA to talk to that woman! If you just didn't trust her so much!" But that's hard for an empathic person to do. The one thing I am glad about is that she did not have to go through what I know she would have gone through... since she was so beautiful. Now that these stories are coming out about Hollywood, can you imagine such a sweet and gorgeous girl like her, moving into movies, only to encounter a Harvey Weinstein? And with her being so sweet and kind and trusting those sharks would have eaten that girl alive! And she was rising fast! So, she would have encountered them. So, in some strange cryptic way, perhaps God had to take her body, to "preserve and protect" the beauty, that was her soul. And it is that thought that helps me when I think of her. She was too "innocent" for that industry!
She had a shark of a father so I doubt that would have happened to her. And Selena even tho was 23 she was a veteran plus married . She was protected but unfortunately she wanted to deal w Yolanda by herself. How evil to draw a gun to a friend and shoot her in the back. Selena turned her back and that’s when Yolanda shot her. She felt so weak she dropped everything and adrenaline had her running to the lobby…which if she didn’t maybe she would be alive today
I blame that shark of a father for sheltering her too much. I had the same type of raising and it bodes no good. It makes you unprepared for the real world. I'm lucky that I was able to stumble and navigate through. Her father is the one who brought Yolanda in because he really didn't know the business and wanted someone cheap.
I agree, Selena was way too trusting, even Chris Perez said in an interview, I think it was a 20/20 interview, "She was always giving people the benefit of the doubt, and look where it got her."
It is cruel to defame Selena's father. He LOVED her.
Omg....thank u for sharing this
You should probably read Chris’s book about Selena, he has stories about her having breakdowns and crying about her father; with the pressures of fame.
The news of her death was even reported here in New Zealand. She only put out good but recieved some vitriol in return. She was a beautiful, kind, level headed, and talented young woman. Imagine where she could have been if it weren't for others actions. She had everything going for her 😢 💜🖤💜🖤
You're so nice for doing these biographies 🖤💜
Ah thank you so much for covering our Queen 🥹 I was 6 when she died but I still adore her music to this day.
