A short clip from the conversation was shared by the Queen of All Media’s official fan page via Instagram. “What do you want to be when you’re 50 years old?” Aquino asked the sisters. Dee responded first, saying she wanted to be a “happy woman” with grandchildren.



Dee even quipped that she did not want to run a business at the time, noting that she just aimed to be a “lazy but rich girl.” READ: Ten things to know about the late Barbie Hsu’s life Barbie, for her part, followed her sister’s lead and said, “I want to be a shopping queen.” When asked if she saw herself still in show biz at 50, Barbie replied, “Maybe I’m a grandmom, or have many children.
