Sandy Wu Gets Emotional: “I Don’t Want to Be His Daughter”
Sandy Wu, daughter of legendary Taiwanese host Jacky Wu, recently got candid about the struggles of being born into fame.
While stepping in as a temporary co-host on Dee Girls Talk, she broke down when discussing her father’s larger-than-life status.
The emotional moment happened when her younger brother LucyPIE joined the show, and naturally, the conversation turned to their dad.
When asked if she would choose to be Jacky Wu’s daughter again, Sandy hesitated before tearfully admitting, “If possible, I wouldn’t want to.”
She quickly clarified that it’s not about rejecting her father but rather wishing for a more “ordinary” childhood.
“I just wanted a dad who could take me to school or sign my report cards,” she said, her voice shaking.

Many children of celebrities face similar struggles, feeling the pressure of living under their parents’ shadow.
Sandy’s words resonated with fellow second-generation stars on the show, sparking a heartfelt discussion on what it means to grow up in the public eye.
Despite the emotional confession, Sandy emphasised that she deeply loves her father.
However, her vulnerability highlighted the unseen challenges of growing up in a world where privacy is almost non-existent.
