GojiMet86 4,695 #2 Posted December 10, 2012 For those that don't know, she's a famous Mexican-American singer, and was married to former Yankee and Dodger pitcher Esteban Loaiza. Very sad, indeed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very sad, indeed. Not only that, but she was about to file for divorce, which makes things worse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Turbo19 2,509 #6 Posted December 10, 2012 Never was a fan, but some in my family were. Nonetheles, may she rest in peace, and my condolences to her family. I know I shouldn't assume, but I have a bad feeling foul play was involved, namely in relation with her husband... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shortline Bus 1,121 #8 Posted December 10, 2012 I admit i did not know much about her other than being on the spanish language stations. However this tragic end of her life could not be more sad as i read ABC-TV/Disney were in final plans for Rivera to have her own "sitcom" this fall (sept. 2013) starring as a single woman raising couple of kids. RIP to her. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BM5 via Woodhaven 5,155 #12 Posted December 10, 2012 (edited) How does it make it worse? How would it feel of the wife you want to divorce so badly dies before you can even divorce her, let alone the verdict that you would have to take responsibility for your sons and grandchildren.

alejr88 327 #13 Posted December 11, 2012 RIP to Jenni Rivera. She also had her own reality show too with her daughters. This is really sad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulrivera 1,145 #14 Posted December 11, 2012 I only knew who she was through her reality show "I Love Jenni." My mom spent the day yesterday watching Telemundo's breaking news coverage. My mom noticed how the stage was shaped like a cross at her concert the night of her death. She worked very hard for everything she had and in the blink of an eye her life was taken away in tragedy. Really sad and unfortunate. RIP Jenni and all who were onboard the plane. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
