	A Look at Selena Quintanilla Perez

		Selena was the idol and role model for her many young, Hispanic fans.
		Selena’s strong roots kept her planted, even though she used her Latina body to help her succeed, but I do not think her body or her sexuality, were the only things that made her successful.
