First off, yes! a Linda Ronstadt biopic would be an excellent idea!
However...
Selena Gomez? If she is doing Linda's songs...nope. I like Selena but she doesn't have the chops that Linda does. Her voice is one of the best out there and well Selena really hasn't shown that she has it.

I can't see this working either, their voices are not at all similar.

Damn, Vic and billcs were way nicer than I would've been lmao Selena and her thin mediocre voice have NO business singing Queen Linda's iconic songs. Lookswise I understand why they picked her, especially given both of them have Mexican backgrounds. But talent wise this choice ain't it. Maybe if Linda also deleted her Instagram every week it would make more sense to me I guess.
