A trail-blazing little person in the entertainment world, Selene Luna (pronounced, s uh – l EH – n eh), at 3’10″, is a small package with very big presence. A veteran of the stage and screen, Selene cut her teeth performing in clubs and art venues and quickly became a darling of Hollywood’s underground scene. An original member of the Velvet Hammer Burlesque, Luna toured internationally and was a featured dancer in the undisputed Queen of Burlesque, Dita Von Teese’s burlesque spectacular for five years. Luna is probably best known for her role in Lionsgate’s feature, My Bloody Valentine 3D, and her role as Margaret Cho‘s assistant in Vh1′s The Cho Show – a performance that landed her a nomination for MTV LOGO’s NewNowNext: Brink of Fame: Comic Award. To date, Luna has written and performed six original one-woman shows, most recently Born to Be Alive, produced by the Lily Tomlin/Jane Wagner Cultural Arts Center. Luna’s stand-up comedy has led her to work alongside comedy legends Roseanne Barr and Robin Williams. Luna’s most celebrated stand-up comedy credit has been opening for Margaret Cho’s national tour. Selene Luna is the voice of Tía Rosita in Coco, Disney Pixar’s first ever All-Latino Cast, opening in U.S. theaters on Nov. 22, 2017. Selene Luna has carved a niche for herself and continues to break the stereotypes of little people in entertainment.
