“The world lost an extraordinary talent in the realm of Judy Garland, Barbara Streisand, and Frank Sinatra, who took their singing artistry and became dramatic artists in film and television. Jenni Rivera was destined to surpass any artist that we have ever seen coming from the Mexican American culture. She was just starting. My love to her family, especially her children and her mother and father.” -- Edward James Olmos

“El mundo ha perdido a un talento extraordinario en la linea de Judy Garland, Barbara Streisand y Frank Sinatra, que tomaron su arte para el canto y lo convirtieron en arte dramático para el cine y la televisión. Jenni Rivera estaba destinada a sobrepasar a cualquier otro artista que haya surgido de la cultura mexicoamericana. Apenas estaba empezando. Envio todo mi amor a su familia, especialmente a sus hijos, a su madre y a su padre.” -- Edward James Olmos

"Filly Brown" is slated to open in theaters Spring 2013.
