Plane of singer Jenni Rivera missing in Mexico (San Antonio Express-News)
MEXICO (AP) — A small plane carrying Mexican-American singer Jenni Rivera went missing early Sunday after taking off from the city of Monterrey, authorities in northern Mexico confirmed Sunday.

Jorge Domene, spokesman for the Nuevo Leon state government, told Milenio television on Sunday that the plane left Monterrey about 3:30 a.m local time after a concert there and aviation authorities lost contact with the craft about 10 minutes later. It had been scheduled to arrive in Toluca, which is located outside Mexico City, about an hour later.

The refrain from the song posted above, roughly translated
 
Tears.

Jenni was larger than life. I LOVE how she was so fabulous in the male world of banda. Every morning at 6:00AM I'd wait until one of her videos would come on, and sing words I had no clue what they meant. It was her passion that counted. Her demand of the microphone. That voice.

The world has lost a force to raise domestic violence awareness.

RIP Jenni

And as silly as it sounds this Diva had some of the best eye makeup on this planet and probably a few others.

Sadly she didn't have the easiest life. A few of those children were born when she was very young. Thankfully her family is musical and she made her way. More sad is her one husband hurt her daughter and her sister. He was consequently locked up.

It makes me so sad when someone overcomes so many hurdles and has such a gift and their life is cut short. She's always had me mesmerized. She is so special too because she gave me time with my DD as she'd translate for me what the lyrics were and we'd dance around.

Sorry just had to share.
 
Million watt smile. Curves.

I've never heard of her before but my heart breaks for her family and friends. Also some of the family needs to get her 11 year old son off Twitter. His tweets are heartbreaking it seems as if he's in total denial and some of her family is not helping the situation (giving him false hope that she's alive and not giving up on finding her) and neither are the psychics. :-/

After two years of investigating whether or not Jenni Rivera's death was an accident, Mexican officials' efforts have come up inconclusive.

"We haven't been able to [find out what happened] and the investigation is over," said Gilberto Gomez Meyer, director of civil aviation in Mexico, in an episode of "El Gordo y La Flaca." "But the impact was so violent, the velocity of the impact was, surely, supersonic. It was so big that the only thing we could find ... that was identifiable from the black box of the recorder was the covering, or the outer layer."

Meyer went on to explain that the exterior of the black box is a bright red. There was nothing else that could be identified because any pieces of evidence were destroyed in the crash.

Known as “La Diva de La Banda,” Rivera was celebrated for her music, but she also openly shared details about her personal life, including how she overcame challenges, including becoming a teenage mother and suffering through abusive relationships.

She kept hush, however, about her biggest secret.

In 2019, Pepe Garza, a radio personality, shocked fans when he released a previously unheard interview [in Spanish] with Rivera recorded nearly five months before she died.

In the interview, posted on YouTube, Rivera shares her fears about performing and her concerns about a side to her career fans never knew about.
