Based on the <b>Dominador Ad Castillo</b>'s novel of the same name, Cofradia was supposed to be a teleserye about a girl who is also insecure of her dark complexion then becomes beautiful because of a magic candle. Although there was a film adaptation in the 50's and 70's.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Sadly, the project was scrapped due to complaints of racism which Julia revealed in an interview. Julia also shared on <b>Buzz ng Bayan </b>on Sunday that she almost lost hope on her career after the cancellation, but she stayed positive and continued on with her acting workshops until the opportunity of 'Mirabella' appeared.</div> </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Julia has also revealed in a previous interview with ABS-CBN that she has no regrets ever since 'Cofradia' since she believes that 'Mirabella' is “equally exciting, equally beautiful, even better.”</div> <div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <b><div style="text-align: justify;"> <b>Julia and Enrique: Kissing scene or not?

Julia admitted that she is in no hurry to grow out of her "tweenie-tweenie" image.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> “Ayoko po kasi magmadali, e. Siguro habang tweenie-tweenie pa 'yong projects doon muna ako, kasi hindi na ako makakabalik pag nagmadali ako, e.” She admitted.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Although Julia won't be having any mature kissing scenes, she revealed that other members of the 'Mirabella' cast will have intimate scenes like <b>Mylene Dizon</b>.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Despite the 'no kissing scene fact', viewers show all their support to Julia and her leading men of <b>Enrique Gil </b>and <b>Sam Concepcion </b>as there will be so much room for love to blossom.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> People are now wondering if the love team between Julia and Enrique will hit off as popular as the popular love team of <b>Kathryn Bernardo </b>and <b>Daniel Padilla</b>.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Julia and Enrique are hoping for the fans to love their partnership, revealed according to The Philippines Star.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> “We’re just doing our best,” Enrique said full of optimism and hope of their love team.
