That's certainly possible, but you have to consider that comparing Selena and Banksy is apt, while comparing Selena Gomez and an underground graffiti artist would be... bizarre.

The full quote is "In other words, kids these days are less Banksy and more Selena." I am familiar with both Selenas and side with Mz. It isn't a comparison, it is a contrast.

Banksy bought graffiti art into mainstream and Selena brought Tejano music into mainstream?

Just a guess.

But was does Tejano music have to do with the internet or instagram?
