Selena Quintanilla is a legend, but despite the fact that the Queen of Tejano remains beloved by Latinos everywhere, there are still some things even the biggest Selena fan might not know. Like, for instance, that she was in a movie with Johnny Depp and Marlon Brando. That's right — Selena, who was known for her bright-red lipstick, had a small role as a mariachi singer in Don Juan DeMarco.
