Popular Singer Dies In Plane Crash

Mexican-American singer, Jenny Dolores Rivera Saavedra better known as Jenni Rivera, has died in a plane crash, Sunday, in Mexico.

Minutes after taking off from the northern city of Monterrey on its way to Toluca, the plane disappeared.
“My queen, we will see each other again soon,” the singer’s father Pedro Rivera told reporters in Los Angeles. “We thought it was a press speculation, we wanted to believe that. But it’s true, my daughter is dead.”
Mexico’s Director of Civil Aviation Alejandro Argudín said the plane had crashed, killing everyone on board.
“The aircraft was left completely destroyed,” Argudín said. “The information we have is that there wasn’t a single survivor.”
At least five people were traveling in the plane: the pilots, Miguel Pérez and Alejandro Torres, and three more passengers: the singer, her publicist and her makeup artist.
Rivera is renowned for her work within the banda and norteña music genres. Her tenth studio album, Jenni in 2008, became her first number-one album in the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart in the United States (wikipedia).
Before her flight, Rivera had played a concert in Monterrey and went to her hotel before boarding the plane, a Learjet 25 with U.S. registration. She was aged 43.

JOURNAL OF A JOURNALIST NEXT DOOR ... September 27th, 2024... Calm before the Storm!

Friday was one of those rare, calm days in my world of Corporate Communications. It’s not often that I get a day with fewer meetings, but when it happens, I know it’s the perfect opportunity to catch up on all the news stories waiting to be polished and published. With the university’s biggest event just around the corner, this quiet felt like the calm before the storm. The first half of the day was spent at my desk, immersed in edits. It’s funny how even on a less busy day, the work piles up in different forms. A colleague sent over a draft press release that needed sharpening, while another forwarded an article that just didn’t have the right tone yet.

As the minutes rolled by, I ticked off one task after another, sipping soda and enjoying the steady hum of a day. In the back of my mind, I knew this won’t last long—the preparations for the upcomi...
