While talking about Selena's credentials, John Amato, president of The Hollywood Reporter-Billboard Media Group said, "Not only is Selena soaring on the charts, but she continuously inspires young women everywhere to be authentic, give back and to not be afraid to use their voice. She is never afraid to speak her mind and has used her platform to advocate for the needs of others. We are thrilled to be able to honour her as our Woman of the Year."

The 'Bad Liar' hit-maker joins an all-star cast of previous 'Woman of the Year' honorees, including Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Pink, Katy Perry, Fergie, Beyonce and last year's winner, Madonna.
