Joe Chen then says, “As an actress, once you’ve reached a certain age, they will always say “40 Year Old Chen Qiaoen Joins Reality Dating Show”. But they will never say this about male actors, 40 year old so and so, 50 year old so and so. Is the value of an actress just based on their age? So you don’t need to remind my of my age. Everyone reminds me I’m 40. People will age and grow old.”
