![]() ![]() When I first heard Netflix was making Selena: The Series (and that it was backed by the Quintanilla family), I wondered what else they could tell about her story that we didn’t already see in the 1997 biopic starring Jennifer Lopez. So much of who I am is because of Selena’s confidence, the way she was so unapologetically passionate and perfectionistic with all her performances and creative endeavors. It’s because of this that I often feel so protective of her and the way her story gets told. Like most Mexican American women, I grew up idolizing Selena Quintanilla-Perez, always singing along and dancing around my grandparents’ house to her music-to this day, you can still catch me in my kitchen doing the “washing machine” while singing along to “La Carcacha” and reveling in the power that was Selena’s voice.
