3-Faced Elva

3-Faced Elva is Elva Hsiao's first album back with EMI, 3-Faced Elva was released on June 13. The new offering is said to portray three different facets of this dancing queen. The pre-release was released to the public since June 2. EMI has been described as "burning money" because they used about NT$ 5,000,000 for one of the Elva's MV "More More More" and about another NT$ 4,000,000 for a ballad song from the album. The album has also teamed with Puma, with the first single off the "I'll Be There". Huge billboards, print ads and TVCs are created for the partnership of Puma and EMI Virgin. Rumor has it that there will be a total of three versions of the albums which feature different styles and photos.

However, ex-EMI's and now-Warner's Taiwan President, Sam Chen, signed a new act Jam Hsiao from the talent show Super Million Stars. The debut album from Jam Hsiao is set to be in the original date which EMI originally planned to release Elva's album. Due to the popularity of Jam Hsiao, EMI therefore adopted the ideas from Elva's fans that is to give away any three of the previous Elva's albums if one pre-order the album in the period of June 2 - June 12. EMI has pulled Elva's album forward from June 16 to June 13 to prevent direct conflicts with Warner Music's Jam Hsiao.
