Information

Angela Chang promoting Aurora (2004)

Angela Chang has loved singing since she was young and has taken part in a lot of singing competitions. She got her breakthrough when she won in an international Chinese singing competition in Taiwan, representing Vancouver, where she studied in high school.

Angela first made her fame in 2002, with a leading actress role in the Taiwan TV drama MVP Valentine, co-starring national basketball player Yan Xing-Shu and Tony Sun from 5566, popular Taiwan boyband.

Then in 2003, Angela starred in the TV drama At the Dolphin Bay. It was in the TV drama that she made her professional singing debut with a cover of the song "Journey". Her fans were amazed by her voice, and the media noticed her music talent. It didn't take Angela long to release her first album Over The Rainbow in January 2004, as expected it was a superhit. Angela then released her 2nd album Aurora in December 2004, followed by Pandora in January 2006. Nearly a year later, Angel released her fourth album called Mèng Li Huā.

Angela is now working with both her singing and acting career, and is featured in a lot of commercials ads as well. Most recently, she starred in Taiwanese drama, Romantic Princess with Fahrenheit's Wu Chun.

In December of 2007, Angela released Ang 5.0. Although she promoted the album throughout the first quarter of 2008, her activities slowed down after she was diagnosed with the heart condition mitral valve polapse.

In late 2009, over a year and a half since her last release, Angela returned with her sixth album Dì 5 Jì. Although the album peaked at #2 on the G-Music charts, there was controversy surrounding the album release. Much of it was due to reports that Angela's mother was kicked out of her house due to money issues between her and her daughter. While fans supported the artist, many others criticized her, especially because family is such a huge social aspect in Taiwanese life.

In early 2012 she changed labels from Linfair Records to Wonderful Music and in October she released her album Yǒuxíng De Chìbǎng, over 3 years since her previous album was released.

In 2014 she made a comeback with her third digital single "OK Bèng" and released her fourth "Wèi Ài Ér Huó" less than a month later. The two tracks were added on her eighth self-titled album Angela Zhang in March.
