'Selena y Los Dinos' reminds us of her brilliance.not just the heartbreak
November 22, 2025
|Saturday Star
I'VE always been fascinated by Selena, full name Selena Quintanilla-Pérez.
My first real introduction was the movie Selena with Jennifer Lopez (who did an amazing job, by the way). However, the Netflix documentary Selena y Los Dinos, produced by her brother A.B. Quintanilla and sister Suzette Quintanilla, hits differently.
Watching it felt like peeking through someone's personal scrapbook, only this one was full of music, family chaos, and pure magic. I was equal parts in awe and heartbroken.
How does someone so insanely talented, funny, and beautiful get snatched away so young? It's just...unfair.
What grabbed me first wasn't just her voice, which, let's be honest, could literally make you stop breathing; it was her raw, effortless beauty. Even as a kid, shy and barely aware of her own genius at six, you could tell she was something special.
And watching her family work together reminded me of the Jackson 5. You could see talent in their DNA and dedication in every move. Music wasn't just a hobby for this family.

Review your insurance before going on holiday
AS the end-of-year holidays draw near, it’s a good time to review your short-term insurance policies to be certain that you are adequately protected and correctly insured. You may even consider shopping around for a better deal or, if you have remained claim-free for an extended period, renegotiate your premiums with your current insurer.
