RIP Mexican/American superstar Jenni Rivera

Heaven needed someone to round out the Winehouse/Houston/Rivera trio.

 

Her full name was Jenny Dolores Rivera Saavedra, so you have to think she changed the Y to an I because it seemed more Latin. I am concerned. Was Jenni(y) Rivera (Saavedra) racist like those Penn State sorority sisters?

 

Si - Esteban Loaiza

 

I guess she had some Mexican in her after all.

 

Her real name.

She had her first baby at 15...she's had 5 kids, has two grand kids, and was married twice.

 

The NYT has her married 3 times:

"Ms. Rivera’s tough-mother approach stemmed from her own experience. By the time she was 16, she was already married and had given birth to her first daughter, Janney, known as Chiquis and featured on two Mun2 reality shows. Ms. Rivera was married three times, most recently to the former major league pitcher Esteban Loaiza, who played for the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Yankees, among other teams. That marriage ended when she filed for divorce this fall. "

 

Three times, and was getting a third divorce at the time of her death according to NPR this morning. (Boom beat me to it)

Also, not that I'm holding up Access Hollywood as an example of anything, but their hashtag for her death was #WhoWasJenniAH for what it's worth.

 

It sounds as though she was Telemundo's own MisterCreosote.

 

Now the field is wide open for 'Sote to pass her.

 

This makes me wonder if Alberto Del Rio is really from Mexico

 

He is. His father and uncle are famed Mexican wrestlers Dos Caras (Two Faces) and Mil Mascaras.
