Selena Gomez does postmortem duet with Selena Quintanilla

selena-and-selena-gomez.jpgPostmortem collaborations are all the rage these days, but this one doesn't involve a hologram. Starlet Selena Gomez has contributed to "Enamorada De Ti," a tribute album for the slain singer Selena -- who Gomez was actually named after.

On the album, fans can hear a duet between Gomez and Selena. "I was completely honored when they asked me to be on the tribute CD and when I went into the studio to record they actually had her vocals in the booth that she was in, so I felt like she was singing right next to me," Gomez tells Just Jared. "It gave me chills! It was incredible and it was a great experience and it was a great song."

Selena's brother, A.J. Quintanilla, spoke to E! about the track at a recent awards show. "She did an amazing job. I had the opportunity to talk to [Gomez]; we did some awards together and I had never met her before in person," he says. "And I took the opportunity to go say hello to her. And I want to thank her for coming onto the album."
