She continued, “You know, in the Asian community, a lot of us girls growing up, we would cut scotch tape and we would put it over our eyelids and then open our eyes to make them look bigger, to have that crease. The double eyelid as it’s called, and when this agent said to me, ‘If you get this done, you’re going from Dayton, Ohio to a top ten market your next move. No question.’ I was like, I presented to my parents, and they were like, ‘Well, let’s do it.’ My parents were so supportive and once I got the green light from them, I mean, the guy even gave me which doctor to go to in Los Angeles.”

Andy asked Julie if she has any regrets about doing it.

“No. None. None,” she replied.

Julie recently explained how Leah Remini “betrayed” her and how they eventually became friends again.
