BOB Barbie biography

Project BOB芭比 (芭比 means Barbie doll), also written 芭比BOB or just BOB started back in 2000. Duet was made of 2 singers and dancers who did their debut as Cherry Sisters in 1996. They performed songs in Hokkien language, and even released an album with famous local star Huang Xitian. They were renamed BOB芭比 in 2000 and scored a lot of hits, being now considered as the pioneers of dance music in Taiwan.

An Yiwei (安苡葳) aka Big Barbie (real name Zhan Huichun) was born April 9th 1979 and was 1,61m tall. Her favourite colors were red and blue and she loved playing the piano and the drums. Zhang Chenyu (張辰瑀) aka Little Barbie (real name Zhang Yirong) was born November 30th 1979 and was said to be the same size, so maybe their nicknames came from the fact that An Yiwei was a little older than Zhang Chenyu. Her favourite colors were pink and purple and she loved dogs. The girls were often supported by a rapper who never appeared in the videos.

BOB芭比 released an first EP entitled Ālǐ bā sī (阿里巴斯) in December 2000, containing 3 songs plus their karaoke versions. The same year, they got nominated for Taiwan Golden Melody Award. Then came Àiqíng de mólì (愛情的魔力), another EP, in Februray 2001. A promo double album, Yáotóu wǔqǔ 2 : yáo liě yáo liě (搖頭舞曲2 : 搖咧搖咧), followed in May 2001. It contained 2 big mixes, plus songs 搖咧搖咧 (meaning Shake Shake), Weekend and Dance. These songs were written by Adan.

In 2002, not less than 3 albums were released : a triple album Chùdiàn wǔqǔ (触电舞曲) which included some video content as well, and 2 mixed album from the Yáotóu wǔqǔ series : Yáotóu wǔqǔ 3 : chùdiàn (搖頭舞曲3 : 觸電) and Yáotóu wǔqǔ 4 : Rèwǔ (搖頭舞曲4：熱舞).

In June 2003, an album entiteld Mólì (魔力) was released. It included a VCD and is said to be unofficial.

2004 saw the release of album Wǒ bùshì huài nǚhái (我不是壞女孩) in January, followed by Yáotóu wǔqǔ 5: Fàngdiàn (搖頭舞曲5：放電) in June. Another album entitled Yuánquān Circle (圆圈 Circle) is said to be unofficial. Then came Tiǎodòng (挑動) and Yì xiǎng de tiánmì (異想的甜蜜) in 2005.

In 2006, album Shuǎng (爽) hit the stores 2006. Then the duo did a pause, probably because their acting activities took them too much time.

2009 : an album entitled Ài dé fēng (愛的瘋) was publisehd in February.

2010 : BOB芭比 was back with a new album entitled Nǐ yǒu jiǎngguò ‎(你有講過).

Project split after An Yi Wei went solo under name Anne and released several albums, while Zhang Chen Yu retired from musical business.
