Vivian Hsu is a Taiwanese-born singer, actress, and
model. She made her music debut in 1991 at the age of 16
as a member of a female trio named ShaoNuDui (Literally, Girl's
Group). This group, however, never achieved popularity and Vivian
temporarily parted from singing to explore the opportunities
available to her in modeling and acting. After going to Japan and
achieving some popularity, she once again entered the music
industry starting in 1996 by releasing a few singles and then her
first solo album, all in Japanese. It's remarkable enough that she
became famous in a culture and language different from her own.
Learning one foreign language must not have satisfied her enough,
as she went through a speed course on "how to speak Korean in one
week" and released a Korean music album in the latter part of 1996.
Due to rising stardom in Japan as well as a multi-million dollar
contract from her planning agency, Vivian left her activities in
Korea relatively unpromoted and focused back to her activities in
Japan. Halfway through 1997, she joined two comedian program hosts
to form a music group called the Black Biscuits. Black Biscuits was
formed as a rival group to another popular Japanese music group
named Pocket Biscuits. As silly as that seems to me, their songs
are upbeat and pretty catchy. Now, she has returned to the Chinese
music scene once again, releasing her debut solo Chinese album in
Taiwan recently.
Few artists have a foothold in as many markets as Vivian Hsu does.
Being extremely successful in Japan, she has also managed to
succeed in Taiwan, Korea and Hong Kong. Another solo album, this
album contains four songs recorded in Japan and three never
released songs.
