I know this is old old old news, but you guys realize that not all idol fans are like this, right? In fact, most dedicated fans would support their favorite idol even past this. When (then) Morning Musume member Fujimoto Miki was revealed to be dating her now husband, and she confirmed that she was dating him, the fans raged NOT at her, but at the tabloid that revealed it, because they knew it would harm her career.

The no-boyfriend rule is just so deeply ingrained in the idol system (and in their contracts, mind you) that it'd be really difficult to dispose of now.

She has already rejoined the group and was just recently promoted to a full member of one of the three main teams again. Also, a tip for future articles: don't publish 2ch posts as fact on your blog. It makes you look like some sort of wapanese Fox News.

Advice for young idols: Be cute, be sweet and be discreet. But most importantly, don't date a moron.

This is the way it is, she had to chose between her fame, or dating some guy she apparently didn't know enough about. She chose the latter and now she has to live with the consequences.

I'm fairly sure artefact was being facetious here... to an extra level, poking fun at the Japanese people's hypocrisy there.

I find it interesting how both Kannagi and this idol met the same fate: Boyfriend revealed, fans rage because she isn't a virgin and therefore cannot be 'their' waifu.

There's a reason sensible people don't fuss too much over "pure idols." It's an disturbing business propagated by unhealthy ideals. Such as the concept that a girl having slept with another person makes her a slut. That's a pretty unhealthy and unsympathetic attitude, something unfit for civilized, rational, and ultimately good-hearted sentients. I feel sorry for her, mostly 'cause her boyfriend's a douchebag. He deserves a kick in the nuts, honestly. But yes, idols really aren't talented, either. Just eye- and fantasy-candy. Which makes making a fuss about them something of a pointless endeavor. And it's not my money being poured into that industry, so I've no vested interest in seeing these people belittled for their personal flaws.

I guess the fans overreact to this, but you can't really blame them for it.

After all, idol groups are usually formed and created with the image of chastity and virginity in mind.

Most of the fans of such groups were made fans by that. It is their target audience.

So I guess the dismission is justified.

What I think is wrong is not this case alone, but the whole culture created around young pop idol groups.

Also, bomb treats, insults and stuff like that are NOT justifiable by any means.
She should look for professional counseling and advocates to protect her integrity in such cases.

Ijo.

That'll teach that slut. Those fans are the only reason she and many others get to be famous at her age, in most cases without an ounce of talent. If she can't even play her part in the deal there's no place for her.

Now she can go back to school and fuck everyone in her class if she wants to, while smarter girls keep riding the wave.

I guess it's the idea that the idol is somewhat of a public property that is 'shared' with the fans, to the point of religious fanaticism. It's like finding out the wizard was only a guy behind a curtain, and feeling betrayed. Then, proceed to go berserk, probably thinking about the amount of time and money spent over the person.
