This past week I found out some interesting facts regarding Mexicana\/Latina singers I was previously unaware of:<\/p>\n

1. The ever popular Mexicana singer Ana Gabriel<\/a> is of Mexican, Chinese and Japanese descent. I didn’t always appreciate her gritty style of singing but compared to the current crop of pop singers, her vocals are most welcome.<\/p>\n

2. Selena<\/a> would have lived if she had a blood transfusion, a practice banned by her Jehovah’s Witness faith. I had never heard this story before but thanks to Cindylu, I am now acquainted with this most important bit of music history\/trivia!<\/p>\n
