I think so, yes.
Actress, singer, dancer, fashion icon, and a very successful business woman.
I (think) she's the most successful Latina ever in entertainment.

If piggy-backing off others for hits and being overrated qualifies you for being an icon, then I guess she is.

I'm not sure about icon but she is part of pop culture. She will be remembered.

The OP doesn't say anything about musical icon.

Shakira is more successful in music, but Jennifer has an entire empire (music, acting, dancing, fashion).

The question is. Would she be an actress, singer, fashion icon, business woman, and Would have several hits if it wasn't for Selena's death?

That's a dumb question.
Would Britney be anything if TLC never rejected "Baby One More Time"? Like....all the "what ifs" are pointless.

I dont even....
Who knows? these kinda questions can be asked about any artist that made it big.
All we know is that she worked so hard to get to where she is now.

Of course she is. Anyone who says no is completely delusional.
