Remembering Selena 16 years later..RIP

Today we remember the beautiful Tejano singer Selena. She was murdered by the President of her fan club on March 31, 1995. Named the "top Latin artist of the "90s" and "Best selling Latin artist of the decade" by Billboard, for her fourteen top-ten singles in the Top Latin Songs chart, including seven number-one hits Selena was a special girl. She didn't deserve to be taken from this world at the young age of 23. Selena had so much more to do. I was lucky enough last summer to visit her gravesite to pay my respects and the museum that honors her legacy. RIP Selena♥
I would also like to mention Brandon Lee. Son of martial artist Bruce Lee. He passed away 18 years ago today at the young age of 28. Brandon was a rising star. He acted in a few movies and was killed on the set of The Crow after being shot accidently by a prop gun. Very sad. I also think Brandon Lee would have made it big. He was talented and just a very nice guy. So sad. RIP!

    Both such sad stories. They were taken much too young.
