Since her part in The Voice, she started a new project and started participating in the 12th season of the TV Show "Te cunosc de undeva". Julie said "I'm sure that this experience will test my limits and from witch I will learn a lot. It scares me the fact that I will have to use contact lenses. That because I have never used, and I know that my eyes are sensitive. It also scares me because i have to give up my long daring nails, and I know that my Afro hair will be a real challenge for the stylists"[3]

gollark: That would probably have been *bad*.
gollark: So it would be a wonderful combination viewbombing aid and AR tool, I guess.
gollark: I would release my AR tool, but because TJ09 I can't actually make it check whether a dragon is <1h or not.
gollark: Invisible because reflector telescopes cannot in fact see them, for obvious reasons.
gollark: It *might* be DNS, it might be invisible space vampires.
