Namie Amuro shuts down website, fan club, and official Facebook. Will stay on Youtube!

[Starfire.]

 

 

 

 

When Namie Amuro finally retired on September 16th, 2018 another set of upsetting news was waiting fans. Amuro’s team informed fans that her official website, fan club (fan space), Facebook, and even YouTube would all be removed today on September 30th.

No specific reason was given for this, they only thanked fans for their immense support throughout the years.

Amuro’s official website is now just a simple white page with black text explaining that the services have been terminated. Members of Amuro’s fan space all got emails notifying them that all content would be removed.

Clicking on her Facebook page leads you to a screen saying that this page isn’t available right now, Facebook was her only official social media page. Her official online shop was closed too.

Originally, Amuro’s YouTube page was supposed to be included in this online purging but luckily there was a change of heart. Her YouTube page is still up right now, at the top there is a message saying that it will be reformulated on November 1st, 2018 with a brand new name!

why would she delete everything?

Everyone has archived the content from these sites, so it's no big deal. The most devastating one was YouTube, so I was glad to hear this morning that it would remain open!

Feels even more final now. I'm glad the Youtube channel is staying open, that would have been devastating.

Agreed. I'm glad they at least kept the Youtube channel open.

I guess if anyone was doubting her retirement, they aren't now. She's making loud and clear that she's never coming back to showbiz.

I'm surprised that they closed the online store...

Not miss Amuro making her online presence disappear like the tattoo on her arm...

I'm glad YouTube channel for her music is still up. That means her music will live on. It was pretty depressing for me when when her official site, fanclub and Facebook page were closed.

Don't understand really why she had to close all those just because she retired.

Glad her YouTube is still up! I would have been devastated if they took that down too. Really sad that they took everything down thou.

That's kind of extreme measurement..I understand fanclub and facebook as those could be used for spamming if there is nobody checking on those platforms anymore...but official website should have been left open..just for people to see...welp, lucky us her Youtube survived.
