She was discovered by Masayuki Makino, president of Okinawa Actor's School during adolescence where she studied singing and dancing. On September 16, 1992 she debuted with the quintet SUPER MONKEY'S on Toshiba-EMI. Over the course of three years, the group went through several group members and name changes. Amuro left the group in late 1995 after a string of successful singles. She signed onto the avex trax label under the wing of producer, Tetsuya Komuro. Massive success followed after her spilt with the group garnering her several million selling singles and albums. Her popularity was so immense young women copied her style leading the media to dub them "Amura." Amuro continued her unprecedented success until she announced a quick marriage and pregnancy with TRF dancer SAM in late 1997. She took a year sabbatical to care for her child. A son, Haruto, was born in May the following year. Amuro returned to the scene on New Year's Eve 1998 with a tearful rendition of "CAN YOU CELEBRATE?" on that year's Kouhaku Utagassen. A new single, "I HAVE NEVER SEEN" was released and debuted at #1. Afterwards, Amuro's sales started to slump. A second comeback single, "RESPECT the POWER OF LOVE" failed to top the charts and she has since been unable to acheive such a feat. In 1999, Amuro released the single "SOMETHING 'BOUT THE KISS" her first production by an international producer. Dallas Austin along with Tetsuya Komuro would write and produce music for her up until 2001 when she severed ties to both producers. Following the departures of her producers, Amuro released the self-penned "Say the word," her first. After the 9/11 attacks on New York's World Trade Center, Amuro worked with former producer Tetsuya Komuro one last time on the single "lovin' it." It would be the third and last single of the song+nation project benefitting victims of the 9/11 attacks. Collaborating with VERBAL of m-flo on the track, it eventually led to the SUITE CHIC project which began as a set of demos VERBAL had produced for Amuro. Launched in late 2002, SUITE CHIC featuring lead vocals from Amuro along with production from some of Japan's most popular R&B and Hip-Hop producers jumpstarted Amuro's long desired change into a R&B artist. The project ended in 2003 with the release of the successful, "WHEN POP HITS THE FAN" album. Amuro returned to the scene soon after with the first of three dance-oriented singles "shine more." "Put 'Em Up" a leftover Dallas Austin production from 2001 was released after "shine more" followed by "SO CRAZY / Come" later that year. Before the release of her first post-Tetsuya Komuro album, "STYLE," Amuro launched her largest and longest tour, "namie amuro SO CRAZY tour featuring BEST singles 2003-2004." Spanning seven months, the tour ended in South Korea making her the first Japanese performer to perform a full length concert in the country since the lifting of the ban on Japanese music. In the summer of 2004, she released the single "ALL FOR YOU" which would eventually be the start of a comeback after a long slump. "ALL FOR YOU" along with "GIRL TALK / the SPEED STAR" and "WANT ME, WANT ME" sold over 100,000 copies leading to the multiplatinum hit album, "Queen of Hip-Pop" in 2005. Shortly after the release of "Queen of Hip-Pop," Amuro toured in support of it on the sold out "Space of Hip-Pop" tour. She would follow the album with the single "White Light / Violet Sauce" and later "CAN'T SLEEP, CAN'T EAT, I'M SICK / Ningyo." Currently, Amuro is touring yet again in "namie amuro BEST tour Live Style 2006." The tour brings her back to arena venues for the first time in 5 years. The tour will end in Okinawa, Japan on November 23rd. It will be her first concert on the island since 1995.

As stated before, there was no band this time. And as always, Namie didn't said anything but "thank you" and "bye bye" by the end. It seems that this time Namie's hairstyle was a ponytail like the one in the Naked/New Look/Hide & Seek pv. I wish namie would show more personality and humour with an encore mc or something...though all her talks on music shows are soo awkward lol

I personally hate them. Thankfully for me, Namie seems to hate them too. Anyway, that "Checkmate!" outfit is REALLY unflattering. I felt guilty for thinking Namie looked big in it, but hell, she actually does.

Posts: 561 July 30, 2011 09:31 PM	^ Well, I personally just believe that MCs are a waste of good time that could be spent singing another song, oftentimes more. That's only my personal opinion though, coming from a very western perspective, since most artists over here just seem to perform and say the occcasional motivational sentence ("SING!"), plus one or two words in whatever language people speak in the country they're in at the moment (so foreign fans will feel cherished)...

Posts: 201 July 30, 2011 09:47 PM	As I said, it depends on the context. Sometimes the talk the singers do in the mcs will just sum up with the emotional of a song, for instance. And Namie actually do talk when she feels like (it's really rare, though, I think she talked something during BFTour because it was Valentine). I think the problem is that the mcs turned out to be something obligatory in jpop and most mcs feel really out of place beucase they are obligatory and need to be there.

What you said actually makes sense. Maybe I've just been unlucky with the few MCs that I've seen. Thanks for your input.
