Her albums are some of the best selling Latin albums in the United States.
When her former fan club president and friend, Yolanda Saldívar, killed her in March 1995, it sent shockwaves through both the Latin community and the world of music. Here are the tragic details about Selena’s murder.

She should be a 50 year old mother of 5 celebrating her nearly 30 year marriage right now instead of being in the ground 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Exactly ..
Yes
YES I WISH SHE GOT TO HAVE A CHILD OR CHILDREN FIRST😭
Yea..
Exactly. POS. And she is eligible for parole in less than 4 years...
"The goal isn't to live forever but to create something that will" -Selena 💗. My favorite quote from her.
MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE QUOTE FROM SELENA. ♥️♥️♥️
And she did 😊
Always believe that the impossible is possible...
That is a very nothing a truthful quote.
❤️
She should be a 50 year old, mother with her 5 kids and her farm :(
and all her dogs :((
Fr
Her children were going to be beautiful!!😩
I love your name
@@kass7360 And her pigs, chickens and horses. :(
People don’t give this woman the credit she rightfully deserves as a vocalist. This woman could SING!!! Her technique, her power, her resonance, and cadence. Could you all imagine the heights her voice and overall music career would have gone, had she survived???
She was set to be a Business Mogul. She paved the way for a LOT of Celebs even today. Damn you, Yolanda! Damn you for robbing us of this bright star that was destined to shine in this industry.
Absolutely. She was a Queen
Damn that country for having the most distasteful and lackadaisical attitude towards weapons! That’s the truth....my first world country adjusted its laws after a mass shooting and that was that .....Selena was an artistic pioneer and I will never get over the fact that heinous creature took her young life.....that subhuman parasite will burn in hell for eternity.... mark my words.
@@icomeandgobybubble87 she still is a Queen. Her music will play and live on forever 👑❤️
Has anyone notice also how she never drank water while performing and her voice was still amazing while singing. While some artist need to take a break to take a breath or drink water. Also she did all of that while in heels and also when she sang she didn’t really sound tired.
If she didn't lack a slight bit of common sense, she would still be alive tbh.
Selena would still been here making beautiful music, if she never met Yolanda. R. I. P selena
I couldn't agree with you more
This iconic performer would still be here with us if it wasn’t for those reprehensible gun laws in that bloody country that readily allowed psychos to purchase weapons with abysmal ease!!!!!!Makes me sick to my stomach!
Yolanda won't a true friend a real friend would never do that to you rip Selena
Preach
True and she'll be alive is she didn't go to that hotel room alone
I, like most people outside of the Latino community, didn't hear Selena's music until after her passing. Just think what could have been if she had lived. Yet another amazing talent Gone Too Soon
I wasn’t alive but I love her music besides being a Spanish speaker
Gone too soon Because of 1 nations abhorrent obsession with guns...full stop!
@@RR-qv8uz of course not mental illness or just plain jealousy? She was in the hotel room with her so if she just got up and stabbed her with a knife instead you’d say 1 nation’s obsession with cooking? 🤦🏾
@@mikeyslikesit7780 Come now ......a somewhat deluded (expected) remark from an enthusiast no doubt - -mental health issues +ease of access to killing machines...a knife you say ....tenuous at best ..smh
No that may be you, but I own a fanpage and Selena had a lot of non Latino fans before her death I’ve heard many stories
The most tragic thing about Selena's senseless murder is that it was 100% preventable.
Same with Aaliyah. It could've been prevented as well. Left Eye(Lisa Lopes).
I hope that terrible, lying woman never gets paroled
Even if she does make parole she’s better off staying in prison because as a Texan I can confirm she is pretty much the most hated woman in Texas. She has to be kept away from other inmates because of threats she receives. It would be no different out here except she won’t have the protection she does in there. She has no life to go back to here.
@@karawigley6231 oh yeah. I can’t be for sure but there’s gotta be plenty of Selena fans waiting to get their own revenge on that miserable woman. She could easily get attacked the second she gets paroled and how much do you wanna bet that Abraham is gonna protest any parole opportunity she’ll eventually get?
She most likely won’t because u get in worse trouble for killing someone from behind
If.. big if she does get out, she already has a green light on her.
I hope she does so she can get real punishment
idk, yolanda showed A LOT of red flags before they even hired her...
Right, what normal person calls someone 16 times 💀
@@geneivalozano right!!!
@@laylasworlds7926 I’m not blaming anyone but Yolanda because she planned to hurt Selena, but the police should have gotten involved, her death could’ve easily been prevented. I understood she had important documents for them but I would’ve called the police and took everything to court. Sucks big time when you’re a genuinely kind person and someone decides to screw you over and take advantage
@@geneivalozano exactly the police could of easily gotten those documents and it’s so sad because Selena wouldn’t even think she would need the police because who would expect to meet up with their best friend and their best friend kills them like wtf
@@laylasworlds7926 right, the worst part is she shot her in the back, her story is the true definition of backstab. I’ll even see some people victim blame selena for her own death, like how on earth was she supposed to know she was going to get murdered, people are messed up.
Selena’s story always breaks my heart and makes me want to cry. I cry cause she was so young and had her entire future ahead of her. She was going to do so much and it was just stolen from her. Her bright burning light was snuffed faster then a blink of an eye. How can someone she loved so much do this to her. Someone she was so good to. I remember the news like it happened yesterday. I was a kid but I understood what had happened and it broke my heart. Selena you didn’t deserve this and I’m sorry this is what happened. We will always miss you and there will always be a place in our hearts for those of us who loved you and where you’re biggest fan.
Sometimes given someone too much power, the kind that she never had, that person will definitely used it to get everything and everything she wants.
It really had an effect on me as well. I was a little kid when it happened and I still remember hearing this announced on the news.
Maybe she was saved 🙏
There's no telling what Selena would have accomplished, places she would conquer, and what achievements she would have done if she had not died.
Fan obsession can be really deadly.
That’s why I don’t get why some fans become obsessive psychopaths and end up killing the people that admire
Think about what she did do while she was alive ..
Yes this is very dangerous fans need not to become obsessed like this don’t ever become like Yolanda this scary and not normal behavior love your celebrities and sports but don’t get carried away.
An important lesson...Be so careful who you call "friend".
Always man. You have to. People will change on you in a instant.
the sad part is she was never able to learn what a real friend was like since she was rarely in school and didn't have time to make them :(
💯💯💯💯💯💯
Most friends are frenemies…
@ChrissyTheWickedHippie 💯💯 fr that's the truth!!
No matter how long it has been, I can't still comprehend what happen, this was Selena, a kind, sweet, compassionate young woman. Everyone loved her, and this thing took advantage of her, even after her death she is still taking advantage of her. Selena we are so very sorry from the bottom of our hearts that this horrible monster came into your life, we are missing you every day. Please rest in peace and power.
I don’t know why I keep breaking my own heart by re watching this story over and over smfh
I know right😭😭😭
Every year i go through it 😭😭😭
i be screaming at the tv saying dont go stay home
I did not only like her music but the way she carried herself. She never forgot who she was unlike the singers out there now. I never saw her in super skimpy clothing, she did not need to use profanity in her songs, songs were clean of sexual things, she was just humble, too humble. Her humbleness was taken advantage of and that is super common in the world today. Never lost her roots and where she came from. She had money and fame but did not let it get to her head. This is why I enjoyed her music and loved her as an artist. ❤
@Donde Merlin skimpy as in showing her ass or wearing see through stuff or wearing the disgusting stuff most female artists wear nowadays. Bustiers were a part of fashion back then and that was a style. selena was classy with what she wore
@Donde Merlin
Yeah but just for her shows outside of that she wore appropriate clothing with class not to mention she was still covered up and for the most part wore other things . Not like jhoe that walks around naked
@Donde Merlin other than her bustier she was mainly covered up. plus on stage it’s a completely different environment, a bustier isn’t really seen as sexual unless you make it that way, i can say this as i used to be a competitive dancer so i understand the on-stage world. also, she never did any sexual moves, they were more cultural, so that makes a huge difference as well. as many say, selena was classy. plus she never wore that off-stage, in her casual life she would just wear normal clothes.
@@drew_lg2132 in lla llamada, the English lyrics has the world bastard
Selena died two weeks before her 24th birthday , and was laid to rest the day of there wedding anniversary. It’s sad how Selena died she was so young, and had so much potential but was taken away by a jealous act I hope Yolanda never gets out cause they waiting on her
@Mckenzie Payne 😢😥 that had to be tough for her husband 😭💔
I grew up with my dad telling me “never trust anyone , even if you’ve known them your entire life , even if it’s your family , never open up with anyone” I never understood that until I started listening to Selena. rip to this beautiful soul, she was so loving and cared for everyone. I can’t believe her last thoughts her life flashing before her eyes :( r.i.p Selena you’ll be missed
Nowadays you can’t even trust yourself
Even though I’m not Hispanic/Latino, and I was born almost nine years after Selena died, I really love Selena and her music. I just got back from watching every video of her that was live from Astrodome. I really wish she was still here today. Yolanda is a terrible person, and she should stay behind bars. I love you Selena! / ¡Te amo Selena! And I miss you / Y te extraño :(
As a Spanish woman myself, I cannot express enough how thankful I am for what Selena did for us while she was here. I wish she didn’t die how or when she did, but the legacy she left behind will never be gone
Spanish? she's Mexican American, Mexican American don't think there Spanish, nor to real Mexicans, ya she want to Mexico and was rapped, who the f.. would rape that ugly thing? if you have ever been to Mexico and spend time there, you would know what I mean how beautiful Mexican women are, give me a brake, I don't believe what she's claiming, she knows probably lots of misinformed Americans are about Mexico will
Selena looked like an angel in her coffin
Never underestimate obsessive traits of those around you..obsession leads to destruction.. this is utterly heartbreaking..but it's not about how long Selena lived..but more importantly How She lived & the phenomenal music as well as her creativity that she left behind all the while inspiring millions in the wake of her passing.
It wasn’t obsession it was greed
@@thenewage9723 It was absolutely proven in court and all of the memorabilia, shrine that Yolanda had of Selena ; it was proven to be psychological Obsession, then Yolanda began to embezzle because she thought that she had some type of an superiority to Selena as being her "number one fan " and many people were able to confirm this through many witnesses I'm not sure if you read all the court documents for the court docket itself but maybe you should check that out before you make that statement, respectfully.
She will forever live in our hearts. She continues to inspire new generations with her music.
“Possessive, vindictive, calling 15x” bro y’all telling me nothing was wrong 😑
Heartbreaker every time I hear about this 😭
Even after all these years, this is still so sad & tragic. Selena was young, beautiful & extremely talented. RIP 🙏
Selena's biggest mistake was going by herself I wish her brother would have went with her or Chris I wish she was still here 🥺 such an amazing woman I had a major crush on her 💗 R.I.P Queen of Tejano Music Selena Quintanilla Perez
Her brother was waiting for her in the studio with their dad and Chris didn’t have a clue where she went she took the truck and his phone so he didn’t have a chance to call her until she call the house phone
@@eveelee4152 well obviously and I as stated before * I wish her brother and Chris went with her*
@@MADFLIXandGames I understand that but you miss the point her brother didn’t have a clue what was going on with that crazy person and once Chris we fully up he didn’t know where she went in his mind she was going to the studio
@@eveelee4152 well at this point it really doesn't matter the poor woman is gone may she rest in peace that's really point.
she gave so much that a trillion negative things said about her wont change a thing. She will always be loved and missed.
I'm always keeping Selena Quintinilla's music alive by singing her songs at Karaoke bars. With the 4 years of Spanish I learned in high school and the love of her music gave me a great opportunity to utilize the Spanish I learned. Plus I named my youngest daughter after Selena. Plus I dress like Selena when I go to Karaoke bars to sing her music.
Por siempre selena
Even though I was born after her death, my mother and sister love Selena’s music and the movie J-Lo starred in. I remember the good ol days where I was nine years old trying to be her lol
Beauty alone cannot describe Selena she was truly a rising STAR.
I was 9 years old about to turn 10 when the queen passed. I had only been a fan for three years, when I heard the news, I went home to hide in the closet with my Walkman. I hit rewind on my radio recorded selena jams, pressed play and mourned to the queen
Im so sorry
I was 8 I remember also
I was only 4 years old then. I turned 5 that year in October.
Selena was an amazing person by all accounts. She didn’t deserve what happened
If only Yolanda had missed that major artery that killed Selena.
Megalodon64 @@@@@@ The monster is a certified psychopath, obsessive fan, haave a homicidal urges and personality disorder, also she was originaly RN and knew where to aim...........Dr.Reed Monlore forensic psychologist diagnosed that creature in !995.
To be honest, Selena died because she ran a long way to the front desk. She bled out. If she was able to run into a room with a maid or someone to apply pressure sooner, there’s a chance she would have survived.
@@Capricornunicorn1 false. There was no way to save her
@@shelbyhecox So let me get this straight. What your saying is, all gunshot victims die on the spot?
@@shelbyhecox Selena ran from the hotel room to the hotel lobby and then collapsed. Based on documentaries showing the site, she ran a bit of a way. When your sympathetic nervous system is activated, your heart races, which means it is pumping more blood at a faster rate. This being the case, tissue death occurred faster, which is why she went unconscious. If perhaps she was closer to the lobby or someone that could have applied pressure to the wound, and called help sooner, there is a possibility she could have survived. Nice of you to chime in though!
No matter how many times you hear it, we know how the story ends and it still NEVER gets any easier to hear. So tragic. 🌹🕊💔
Totally agree this woman was jealous of Selena and ingratiated herself upon the family. Quite evil you have to be careful who you trust and bring into your life. I will always miss this lady even though l really at the time had no idea who Selena was and only found out about her reading an article. I am in UK so sorry for her she was just taking off with her career.
The minute that I would have seen an old nurse looking suspicious, spamming my phone more than 15 times asking to be a president of a fan club that would’ve been my first red flag.
That would’ve been my first red flag because you can already see obsessive behavior
If only Selena hadn't gone alone to meet Yolanda the second time....
It wouldn't of mattered a kill will always find a way to kill
Its so sad to know that she died only 3 years before I was born 💔💔 I fell in love with the movie and its so sad knowing she could still be here with Chris and her kids still making music. She was ripped from the world way too soon 😭😭
Selena and I were the same age when she died. It makes me so angry that Yolanda robbed her of her life.
My first ever concert- at 4 years old was Selena. In 87🙌🏽 and from that day on- I’ve been a fan and followed her everywhere.. my heart broke like nooo other when she passed. My idol🥰
she had so much more to give. rest in peace selena 🕊
Hearing about her never gets old, beautiful story with a sad ending BUT we still have her music and life story.
Was living San Antonio when Selena was murdered. The city went into mourning included shutting down for days.
It still hits me so hard to this day. I was only 2 when she passed away but i still can understand the huge impact she had on us as we grew up
In this Social Media Era..She wouldve set so many records
There was no social media and internet in the early 90s.
She was the best singer of the 90s in the music industry.
We are all Selena's in our own life.. we might not even know how many people are clinging on to us like parasites which we think to be our friends 🥺
I agree with you
Fan are crazy they get obsessed to the point that become mentally attached to their star then when the star doesn't
Want them anymore in their life
That obsession become hate
Great video! Selena was and still is a BEAUTIFUL soul period!!! I get sad about her passing because she literally was a sweet person. She didn't deserve this! Her legacy will live on forever!!!
She was tragically killed 3 years after I was born and yet… Since the first time I saw the original movie, I’ve felt so sad and hurt whenever I think about how such a beautiful person was taken from the world. We miss you Selena! 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Its so crazy how Yolanda was able to infiltrate such a tight-knit group of people.
Right? 🤔
It’s always sad when I hear this.. if you haven’t watched the Netflix series Selena you have to it’s a must! Sooo good!!
Part 2 was better then part 1.
RIP Selena you where magic.
Yolanda was majorly OBSESSED w Selena. ANYONE who was willing to give up a hard earned career to be a “fan club” President , that should have been a major red flag! I hope Yolanda never gets paroled!
This is gut wrenchingly sad. RIP Selena. 😔
Third comment hell yeah, love the content; I use to watch the Selena movie with my mom when I was younger. Brought back some memories.
This is the best and most detailed version of Selena's passing.
Selena said, “if you have a dream, don’t let anyone take it away.” Even in death, Yolanda still didn’t take away her dream. Her music lives on and she has a new generation of LOYAL fans who are children, but still know her even 30 years later.
I loved Selena so much and looked up to her. I still love her and think about what her career would have been like if she lived. She was and still is an icon and an amazing lady. Keep resting in paradise. Te amo.
Her career WAS amazing
Thank you for the video , love from UK
Imagine where she would be right now ❤️
What a talented beautiful woman. So sad she's been gone, but her legacy lives on.
Selena would have been up there today in the top probably with about 50 or more greatest hits
Rip to the true queen
Bad things happen to great people. Rest In Peace Selena
Unforgivable
She accomplished so much at such a young age, can't imagine where she'd be if she were still alive. What I want to know, didn't the Quintanilla family do a background check on that crazy Yolanda lady?
This story is so heartbreaking :( 💔
It still is heartbreaking
THE GOOD DIE YOUNG. That fact is sadly thrown in our faces oh so too damn often. RIP Selena and Big hugs to her family!!!
Yes and the Evil ppl live longer.
All that talent, all that love and caring, all that beauty, taken away way to soon. All because of that woman's greed and obsession. I was 18 living in Seguin, TX when she was killed. I will never forget that day. RIP Selena, you will always be a legend.
I was in MA studying while listening to her music. A guy on the radio said she died and RIP. I still remembered asking myself, "What?????!?!?" How? Why? Very sad and still isn't over that to this day.
missing selena quintanilla is one of the hardest things to do for my soul i got emotional when i listen to selena's music rest in peace she will always be an timeless & an gorgeous angel for eternity rest to peace to selena 🖤
Here in the Philippines, we still love her songs until now. RIP Selena ❤
She falls into the same category as the other great and young artists we lost in the 90's. Selena, 2Pac, Kurt Cobain, River Phoenix, Notorious B.I.G., Bradley Nowell, and Jeff Buckley. They were so extraordinary in their talents and it just is mind blowing that it happened so consistently in the 90's. Or maybe because I was a teen back then it's more prevalent in my mind. I know there's more lost but those all come to mind right now. R.I.P. beloved ones.
i love how they laid the white roses on her unvailing of her walk of fame star
Thanks so much for taking time out do this tragic story on Selena Quintanilla Perez as a loyal fan of Selena Quintanilla Perez am glad to hear that Yolanda Salvidar in March 2025 because Yolanda's life is at risk if she's released from prison am pretty sure somebody will be looking for her..
Thank you Quintanilla Fam for helping to create such an incredible artist. Like the Jacksons ya'll worked your butts off as a family unit and made the American Dream possible. Selena Forever!!!!!!
Selena my girl I listen to her everyday. Rip queen 👑
What a star 🌠 that never got to shine brightest
Wonderfully written video ♥️
❤️🌹R.I.P SELENA🌹❤️ You are forever missed
RIP TO THE QUEEN TEXAS MUSIC SELENA
So so so sad🥺😢😢
I'd barely gotten to hear her big hit song "I could fall in love" before she was gone, but have heard and purchased her music.
Yes. your right Amber
@Amber Mackenzie not all but some only 3 were released before her death but not from dreaming of you
I saw the movie and it was heartbreaking
To be perfectly honest, if Yolanda didn’t exist then Selena would’ve still been here. We wouldn’t be spitting the word “murder” out of our mouths. But unfortunately...Yolanda jus had to slither her way in. I don’t hate her. I jus don’t like her. The word hate is way to strong for me to use. So I decided to use “Like.” The only reason as to why I don’t like her is because of her actions such as taking Selena’s life away. It shouldn’t have happened. Period.
I’m glad they made the movie about Selena, and Jennifer Lopez & Edward James Olmos, as well as the rest of the cast did a great job! I didn’t know who Selena was until after I watched the movie. It made me so sad! She was doing great things and seemed like a wonderful person. There’s no telling the heights she would’ve risen to had she lived! May the LORD bless her family!!
she was just a baby. she had her whole life ahead of her..she wanted a family and ofc they monster took all of that away from her..rip beautiful ur missed so much😕 rock them heavens..
Selena is one of my biggest heroes and inspirations, having motivated and inspired me to pursue my dreams and goals.
I served in the US Army for 3 years (2009-2012). Needless to say, there were several people who didn't want me to join because they would worry and didn't want anything to happen, blah blah blah. But then again, you don't have to be in the military for something bad to happen. We know what happened to Selena, and she wasn't in the military. 😠
I'll always look up to her. 💜
I wish this was a dream 😔
"Always believe that the Impossible is always Possible"

((An angel that was taken
Away from us=( ♡))
Jennifer Lopez did a wonderful job imitating Selena. She looked a lot like her which was eerie. It is such a needless tragedy! 💔
Her voice sounds like hers too.
@@randomaccount7708 not even close,the voice on the movie was Selena’s ,JLo only did lip sync the songs …
No JLo is 💩💩💩don’t look like Selena at all …
@@randomaccount7708 Um HELL NO, JLO's voice is NOTHING compared to a real talent like Selena. Selena was a natural singer, not made up in the studio like Jennifer Lopez
I will always be a big fan of Selena, my idol forever! She was so beautiful and talented! Selena will always be in our hearts! ❤
Selena❤️✨ God Bless ✨🕊
We will never get over this...
Ever...
The Queen then, now and forever! Your memory and music will live on forever. ❤❤❤
This is so so so heartbreaking. Selena was everything. So beautiful and soft spoken. It’s so sad that she’s not here. I love you Selena. RIP Babygirl🥺💔😢
After watching this video I learned to stay away from overly obsessive friends.
Yeah. Accidentally shot her while motioning towards the door. In the back. Gotcha. 🤦🏻♀️
Yeah she intentionally shot Selena.
@Christopher Bingham I personally don’t see anything funny about any of this story.
Seems legit
Especially because the type of gun she had, had to have a certain amount of weight on the trigger for it to go off. That can’t accidentally go off.
This shit is sickening. She never would have thought someone she was so close to would do this. Can’t trust people. She was so young.
I was 7 when Selena was killed and two years later I watched the "Selena" movie with J. Lo when I was 9. Everytime I see her story my heart is always 💔 for her family, mainly her grief-striken father Abraham Quintanilla 😞🥀
We were there that night when Yolanda locked herself in the car we waited forever to see her off herself but never did but what a night crazy memory
