Selena Quintanilla Pérez, born April 16, 1971, was a Tejano singer from the United States. Her musical and fashion talents won her the title “Queen of Tejano music,” and she went on to become one of the most well-known Mexican-American celebrities of the late twentieth century.
Based on both the Latin albums and Latin song charts, Billboard magazine rated her third on its list of the “Greatest Latino Artists of All Time” in 2020.
Marcella Ofelia Quintanilla, the youngest child of Cherokee origin, and Abraham Quintanilla Jr., a Mexican American former musician, raised her. The obstetrician-gynecologist who delivered her was future House of Representatives member Ron Paul.
Selena was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness. Quintanilla Jr. first discovered her singing ability when she was six years old.

He also released a Selena debit card in 2016 and partnered on a MAC Cosmetics Selena beauty line last year.
