It made me cry because it just felt good seeing that scene because it was almost exactly how they portrayed it," she continued, applauding the show's writers for recreating the special moments that the family shared with them. "I just started crying because I remember how frustrated. He's trying to train our ear, and it was pretty on point." "It's the younger scenes that really got me, where it's us three and my father is trying to to make us listen to different instruments and we have to tell him what that instrument is doing. There's a scene where my sister was singing 'Feelings' and I just started crying because it took me back," Suzette shared. "There was a couple of scenes in the series that I just started to cry because it literally was on point. Serratos has continued to impress Suzette, who shared that watching certain moments really made her tear up. I loved about her and that's definitely a trait my sister had as well, not afraid to step into a zone that she was not familiar with." "When she and I spoke, I asked her, 'Did you expect this controversy about you? This heavy controversy?' And she said, 'Yes, I did.' I think she said her husband even said, 'Are you sure you want to step into this role?' and she said yes. " is a great person and a goodhearted person and I know that she worked extremely hard," Suzette relayed. "She was one of a kind and I think there are a lot of impersonators that favor Selena, but they don't act like her or they don't know how to act." "To me, at the end of the day, it's about the story and not one person on this Earth is going to look exactly like my sister and act like my sister," she noted. "Latinos, we're knocking on the door and I'm happy that we're a part of that."Īs far as Serratos not being an exact lookalike of Selena, Suzette admitted she "will never see anyone else as my sister." However, she knew Serratos was right for the part. I'll be forever grateful for Netflix and for Campanario for making this happen," Suzette added. "To have a platform like Netflix and for two seasons to be able to tell our story, it's just, it's without words. I don't think that a lot of people realize that this type of platform is not given to everyone, especially us as Mexican-Americans." I'm forever grateful and I'm grateful for the platform Netflix is able to give us, to be able to talk about this series. "It had a lot of mixed emotions, if anything. She's the one not part of this trio anymore," she stated. "It was very sad too because she's not here, and so it was those little moments, like, this was really cool and then you realize that she's not here. While it's been more than two decades since the family lost Selena, reliving her life still continues to be a bittersweet journey. It's a celebration of Selena's life," Suzette explained, "how her fans have carried her throughout the last 25 years." "This series coming out this year, I feel like is an important year in Selena's legacy. When it finally did, it fell on an important year the 25th anniversary of her death. It took some time for Selena: The Series to come to life. It took quite a bit of years and a lot of hardship as a family and being able to get where we were before she was ultimately taken from us." And whatever their dream is, to understand this was not a rise to fame right away. "It's more about filling in the full story of our journey and hopefully inspiring those who are going on a journey of their own. "This series is more about all the questions, the little things that Selena's fans have been asking throughout the years like, 'Why was this song created or why this?'" she noted. And in creating those intimate moments, Suzette said she understands that it might be "difficult for people to really wrap themselves around this series." Quintanilla is showcased like never before.
