Selena Quintanilla, "Queen of Tejano Music", had a net worth of $5 million at the time of her tragic death in 1995. Her money was managed by her father, leading to a legal battle between her husband and family over her estate. Selena, a confident Aries, is celebrated nationwide every year on her birthday, April 16, by fans.
Selena Quintanilla, "Queen of Tejano Music", the "Tejano Madonna", and arguably one of the greatest Latino artists of all time, had a net worth to match, one that she tragically never got to fully put to use. Known simply as "Selena", the popstar from Texas was a music sensation, with several Spanish-language hits, including "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom," "Amor Prohibido," and "Como La Flor," songs which made her a crossover hit Spanish and English-speaking fans loved. Tragically, Selena's life was cut short when she was shot and killed by Yolanda Saldvar on March 31, 1995.

Popular-music-focused dramatizations have found new life, thanks to recent cinematic offerings like Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman, with many more currently on the industry docket. It’s a notion that Netflix might have taken into consideration with a television project it just unveiled, set to chronicle the story of Selena Quintanilla-Pérez, the 1990s-era Mexican-American crossover pop sensation whose rise was tragically cut short upon being murdered by her friend and agent.
The Walking Dead‘s Christian Serratos temporarily put aside the zombie apocalypse to star on the Netflix television offering, titled Selena: The Series. The show is being released in “parts” (rather than seasons), with Part 1 arriving with six 1-hour episodes. Serratos – who’s played Rosita Espinoza on the AMC series since 2014 – has major shoes to fill, not just because of the loftiness of portraying the still-beloved singer, but also because of director Gregory Nava’s 1997 Selena film, which elevated star Jennifer Lopez to A-list status.
