Selena remembered: Revisit EW's 1995 cover story. Itâs been approximately 20 years since Tejana singer Selena Quintanilla-Perez was murdered at gunpoint by the president of her fan club, but her family will always remember her as an vibrant, gifted and charismatic young woman. âShe is always with me, even in the smallest of things.
Selena would then begin recording songs in English instead of Spanish, which would expand her career. On 31 March 1995, Selena was killed by Yolanda SaldÃ­var, a friend and former manager of her clothing stores. Selena's death affected people in Hispanic communities. Many candlelight vigils took place, as well as other memorials from fans. Two weeks later, Governor of Texas at the time, George W. Bush, made 16 April Selena Day in Texas.
