What was Selena quintanilla dream?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I believe her most wanted dreams were more than likely to be: to continue singing for her fans and to cross over into the main stream (the English speaking world), also to have and own her own business where she could sell her clothes that she designed, and to have children with her husband Chris. All but the last dream came true. She most likely had others, but those were private

Is Lana Lang really dead?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Not to my knowledge. she did move from Smallville to Metropolis in the Superman Context. One of Superman's two main Girl friends. Unlike Lois Lane, she is NOT a journalist. It is not quite made certain WHAT her adult occupation is. Her father was an archaeologist, Professor Lang, also involved with fossils, Dinosaurs, re-animated Egyptian Queens ( in one episode, Cleo troops the colors!) I am speaking of comic books- Action, Adventure, Superman, NOT Television dramas. Lana Lang was not in the fifties Tv Superman.

Who is Yolanda Saldivar?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yolanda Saldívar is a convicted murderer, born September 19, 1960.

She was a nurse (with a college average of a "C") who went on to become Selena Quintanilla Perez's fan club president. She laundered money from Selena's fan club for her own personal use and when Abraham Quintanilla (Selena's father) found discrepancies with cancelled checks from Selena's fan club, he advised Selena of what was going on. Selena and her father confronted Yolanda about the checks and Yolanda acted like she didn't know what was going on. She and Selena set up a meeting early one morning at the Days Inn where Yolanda was staying and speculation is that Yolanda and Selena argued about the missing money and when Yolanda felt threatened and in backed in a corner, basically busted for her wrongdoing, she shot Selena more than once and chased her through the grounds of the hotel where Selena ultimately fell dead in the lobby.
