Even though Selena Quintanilla, the Queen of Tejano music passed away twenty years ago, it's evident that her spirit and makeup inspiration lives on!
M.A.C. recently made an announcement that they will launch a Selena makeup line in 2016! According to BuzzFeed, a petition was made back in February on Change.org in hopes of M.A.C. creating the line influenced by Selena. Fans also started using the hashtag, #SELENAQUINTANILLAforMAC in support of the line being created. M.A.C.'s senior vice president, James Gager told Harper's BAZAAR magazine how the late songstress made an impact on this world, stating,
"Selena's talent and beauty, inside and out, have left a colorful, meaningful impact in the world, that has continued to grow over the last two decades."
Selena's sister, Suzette Quintanilla, who also played the drums in the former, Selenas y Los Dinos band, expressed her excitement about the future makeup line to BAZAAR, stating,
"I am so excited that M.A.C. Cosmetics will be releasing a collection in honor of my sister Selena. If Selena were here, she would be beyond ecstatic to have this happening. History is being made."
I don't know about you, but I'm starting my Selena makeup savings account immediately.
