Selena Gomez Covers The Original Selena Quintanilla! Plus Nick Jonas Spotted In Audience!

February 8, 2010

How adorable of her!

Selena Gomez unleashed her inner Latina as she covered one of the widely known Selena Quintanilla hits, Bidi Bidi Bom Bom, at her concert in San Antonio on Sunday night (February 7).

Watch the video (below) of Selena’s performance and make sure to pay close attention as the person recording focuses on Selena’s rumored boyfriend Nick Jonas a couple times!

Bravo to Selena on selling out her first arena concert with The AT&T Center’s 16,500 seats, according to My San Antonio

The team color of choice was pink on Super Sunday at a sold-out AT&T Center, where Selena Gomez played the post-rodeo concert. The screaming never really stopped once Gomez took the stage and launched into Kiss & Tell.

Selena was prom-night chic, dancing around the edge of the circular stage in a shimmering white-and-silver dress and sparkly black vest, perhaps a nod to the Spurs. (Gomez, who grew up near Dallas, is a fan.)

She spiced up her 14-song set with a few covers, including the Backstreet Boys’ ‘I Want It That Way’; Katy Perry’s ‘Hot N Cold’; and the show-closer ‘Magic,’. The one for the highlight reel was a spirited version of “Bidi Bidi Bom Bom,” which Gomez, who was named after the Tejano superstar, dedicated to Selena.

Cool fact: Did you know that Selena Gomez was actually named after Selena Quintanilla? Selena says, “My dad and family loved her. So when my mother got pregnant with me, he wanted to name me Selena, after her. As I got older and could understand why I was named after her, I went to go visit her grave and where she used to perform.”

How interesting!
