Jenni Rivera Dies in Plane Crash; Singer Was 43 Dec 10th 2012, 01:08 Mexican-American singer Jenni Rivera was killed in a plane crash Sunday. Authorities in Mexico have confirmed that the wreckage of the small plane, which went down shortly after takeoff, had been found in Nuevo Leon State. There were no survivors; seven people were believed to be on board. The Learjet carrying the 43-year-old lost contact with air traffic controllers after it took off from Monterrey, Mexico, at 3:15 a.m. following Rivera's concert there. Contact was lost about 60 miles away, Mexico's transportation ministry said. It was scheduled to arrive in Toluca, outside Mexico City, before sunrise. Tragically, it crashed to the ground and claimed the lines of everyone on board. Rivera, a native of Long Beach, Calif., sold more than 20 million albums worldwide and was one of People En Espanol's 25 most powerful women. She was also the star of I Love Jenni, a reality show that aired on Telemundo's mun2 documenting the singer's jet-set life as an entertainer and mother of five children. Her publicist, lawyer and makeup artist were also on the plane with her. Earlier this month, ABC tapped Rivera to star in her own show. The self-titled comedy, Jenni, would feature her as a strong, middle-class, single Latina woman working to raise a family using unique parenting skills. R.I.P.
