When the news first broke that Jennifer Lopez will tribute Selena Quintanilla-Pérez at the 2015 Billboard Latin Music Awards last month, we (and many others) could barely contain our excitement! That biopic role back in 1997 is how the American Idol diva made her mark on the business, after all.

Last night (April 30), Lopez reprised her role as the late singer as she dominated the stage with a killer seven-minute long performance! Dressed in a Tejano-approved sparkly and frilly nude two-piece, the entertainer rocked the crowd with a medley of Selena’s well-known hits: “Como La Flor,” “Bidi Bidi Bom Bom,” “Amor Prohibido,” “I Could Fall In Love” and “No Me Queda Mas.”

The entire performance was a huge slice of nostalgia that led to a few tears or two! If Lopez singing these tunes weren’t enough, Selena’s siblings Suzette and A.B. and widow Chris Pérez (aka Los Dinos) joined the artist on stage to play as a band! Thankfully, there was no hologram in sight.
