The 13 Reasons Why producer has attended the celebration every year since its start and hosted the event twice. During the We Day California ceremony in 2018, Selena got emotional about her health issues and her kidney transplant – and how many of her fans who faced the same health issues, helped her get through.

"As maybe some of you know, I had a kidney transplant this year and so many people from across the country reached out and they offered their support," she told the crowd. "And others told me how hearing my story helped them find their own courage and helped other people want to get involved and donate. They reminded me how lucky I am to have a platform where I can share with you guys and I can pay the love forward."
