Guo Shu Yao, or just “Yao yao” is a Taiwanese Singer, Yao-yao has captured the hearts of boys with her baby face and ample cleavage since her appearance in a series of suggestive TV commercials for an online game. Her phenomenal popularity paved the way for the former teen model to break into pop music.

Her debut album , entitled “Love’s Embrace” (愛的抱抱) was the No. 1 selling record in Taiwan on October 2009,  beating out other famous singers including local star Angela Chang (張韶涵) and Hong Kong’s Eason Chan (陳奕迅).

Born to a poor family in Sindian City, Taipei County, the young Shu Qi moved to Hong Kong at the age of 17 where she became a model for nude girls magazines and softcore movie shorts. She eventually came under the management of Hong Kong producer Manfred Wong, who signed her on to several softcore Hong Kong films such as Sex & Zen II.

She starred in Derek Yee’s 1996 film, Viva Erotica, which was about the erotic film industry in Hong Kong, opposite the late Leslie Cheung and Karen Morris. At the Hong Kong Film Awards, she received the Best Supporting Actress award for the film. Since then, she has appeared in mainstream Hong Kong films such as Gorgeous (1998) opposite Jackie Chan, Stanley Kwan’s The Island Tales (1999) and Hou Hsiao-Hsien’s critically acclaimed Millennium Mambo (2000).

In 1999, Ang Lee approached Shu for the role of Jen in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Six weeks into filming, her manager, Manfred Wong, not foreseeing the film’s massive international success, pulled her out to do a soft drink commercial in Japan, and the part went instead to Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi.

In 2002, she appeared in the Hollywood film The Transporter and the Asian action film So Close. In 2004, she played the main role in the Hong Kong horror film The Eye 2.

In 2005 she won the Best Actress Award at the 2005 Golden Horse Awards for her three roles in Hou Hsiao-Hsien’s Three Times.

In 2006, she was selected by Kenzo to be part of the third advertising campaign for its successful fragrance, Flower by Kenzo. She remains its current face.

In 2008 she was member of the jury of the Berlinale, the Berlin International Film Festival.

Reputation

Despite her involvements in softcore films during her early stage of career, Shu Qi successfully overcame the pressure arisen from the Chinese conservative culture and gained her popularity through her acting talent and attractive appearance. She has been consistently ranked as one of the 99 most desirable women around the world by [AskMen.Com]

In 2008, she was elected by American entertainment channel <<E!>> as “The Actress with the World Most Sexiest Lip”.

Angel, published in 1995, was shot in Capri and Sicily.

Venus, published on July 7, 1996, was shot in Mexico and had separate runs in Taiwan and Japan.

Vivian’s success in modeling achieved its zenith in July 1996 when she was featured on the cover of two Asian-edition Penthouse magazines (the Japanese edition, and the comparatively low-distribution Hong Kong edition). Like the photobooks, both these items have become very sought after by Vivian collectors and fans.

Vivian has continued to model for designers such as Hang Ten, Gucci and Mode Marie, and has modelled in all three of her brief, autobiographical books: Earth Onigiri (2001), Privacy (2001, ISBN 4-88745-060-5), and Wo Ai Taiwan (2002). In addition, most of her musical albums contain substantial inserts featuring new modelling work.

Vivian’s career in entertainment industry started after winning first place in a “Talented Beautiful Girl” contest held by Taiwan CTS TV in 1990. At that point, she was working by delivering food on her bicycle, and her customers began to recognise her from her television appearances. The same year she joined a musical trio named 少女隊 (py. Shào nǔ Dùi, en. Girls Team). They released two albums, in 1991 and 1992, then broke up. Following this, Vivian got her start in modeling.

As a model, she produced two photobooks: Angel (天使心, py. Tiānshǐ Xīn) and Venus.

Angel, published in 1995, was shot in Capri and Sicily.

Venus, published on July 7, 1996, was shot in Mexico and had separate runs in Taiwan and Japan.

The second of three children, Vivian was born Hsu Su-chuan (traditional Chinese: 徐淑娟; pinyin: Xú Shújuān), and used this name until she began her modeling career. Her parents divorced when she was a young child. She attended Taipei Jianxing Elementary School and Taipei Shulinguo Junior High School.

Acting

Vivian has appeared in a number of movies and television programs both in Taiwan and in Japan. She appeared in the ambitious 2006 mainland China-Taiwan-Hong Kong collaboration “The Knot”, a romance movie that takes place between the CCP takeover of mainland China and the present. Her debut film is “Shaolin Popey” (1994), a comedy which became a box office hit in Taiwan and Hong Kong (Vivian played the dream lover of the male lead in this film). Before breaking into the Taiwan acting scene, she starred in Hong Kong’s L-O-V-E Love….

She also has some experience as a seiyu (voice actress), having voiced Aisha in Gundam SEED for three episodes.

She played the role of Chao Jia Le in Love Storm (2003), alongside Vic Chou and Ken Chu. She also composed and sang the opening theme for this series, 決定愛你 (py. Juédìng Ài Nǐ, en. Decide to Love You), which was released as a single in 2003.

As with many actors and actresses, she appears from time to time in commercials and as spokesperson for various causes. A complete list of these uncreditable roles (through 2002) can be found at this career timeline.

In 2006,Vivian played a role in movie人鱼朵朵 The Shoe Fairy of Do Do. The Shoe Fairy is a modern day fairy tale. One which isn’t kind to its genre to begin with, highlighting the evil witch and wolf characters and their impending bloody demise in each tale. The Chinese title “Ren Yu Duo Duo” will already hint about the fairy tale from which this movie draws its inspiration from, with “Ren Yu” being mermaid (in this context).

Music

Vivian released her first solo single in 1995. She released her first full-length album, 天使想 (pinyin: Tiānshǐ Xiǎng; Japanese: Tenshi Sou; literally: “Angel Dreaming”) in 1996. Shortly thereafter, she took a speed course in Korean, and released a Korean version of the album titled 天使美少女 (pinyin: Tiānshǐ Měishàonǔ; Japanese: Tenshi Bishoujo; Korean: 천사 미소녀; literally: “pretty angel girl”). Unusually, neither of Vivian’s first two albums was sung in her native language.

In 1997, with two Japanese comedians—Kyoya Nanami and Amazan—and later with a second female vocalist known as ‘Keddy’, she formed a band known as the Black Biscuits. The band was formed primarily as a “rival band” for the Japanese music group Pocket Biscuits, which was the creation of the Japanese variety show Utchan Nanchan no UriNari. Between 1997 and 1999, they released three hit singles and a full-length album, Life. Their single CD “Timing” recorded 1.5 million sales in 1998. And, they participated in Kōhaku Uta Gassen in 1998.

Towards the end of the group’s run, they failed to accomplish one of the challenges set forth by the variety show and the resulting punishment was the disbanding of Black Biscuits.

During this period, Vivian also released two more solo albums: 大麻煩 (pinyin: Dà Máfán; literally: “Big Trouble”) in 1998, and 不敗の戀人 (pinyin: Bùbài de Liànrén; literally: “Undefeatable Lover”) in 1999. She followed Bubai de Lianren with a Japanese translation, Fuhai no Koibito, in 2000.

Later that same year she released another new album, 假扮的天使 (py. Jiǎbàn de Tiānshǐ, en. Pretend Angel).

In 2001, she formed The d.e.p with Masahide Sakuma, Gota Yashiki, Masami Tsuchiya and Mick Karn. The band was short-lived: by the end of the year they had released all the music they ever would. This amounted to two singles and a full-length album, 地球的病気 -We Are the d.e.p-.

Over the next two years, she released a few more singles, including, alongside Kazuma Endo, Moment, the second opening theme to Gundam SEED, followed in 2003 by her next solo album, 我愛你 x4 the secret to happiness is love. Her last album is 狠狠愛 (py. Hěn Hěn Ài), released in April 2005. Her most recent album is Vivi and…, released in September 2006. For this album, Vivian collaborated with many artists and people including Jay Chou, Wang Leehom, Gary Cao, Nicky Lee and even her little brother and uncle.

Vivian’s music, especially in her later work, covers a great range of genres. Included are slow love songs, R&B, hard rock, and of course J-pop. She has even dabbled in rap. This, combined with the fact that she is fluent in Mandarin, Cantonese, and Japanese makes her a very versatile artist.

Vivian is also an accomplished lyricist. Her lyric-writing talent first gained serious notice when she completed several songs for Taiwan’s R&B singer/songwriter Jay Chou. By proving that she’s not just another pretty idol, but a very capable artist, Vivian surprised both her critics and adorned fans. She continued to collaborate with Jay on his second and third albums after his triumphant self-titled debut, and co-wrote songs for other pop performers, such as Vanness Wu,Show Luo and Gigi Leung. Her lyric work is much praised for its clever and straightforward simplicity.

Some Jay Chou songs that she wrote lyrics for are as follows:

* Adorable Woman 可愛女人
* Can’t Say 開不了口
* Istanbul 伊斯坦堡
* Love’s Cliff 愛情懸崖
* Simple Love 簡單愛
* Tornado 龍捲風
