The actress said to Ellen that she got an email saying a magazine was going to run a story about her acting 'icy' towards her co-star. 

Julie said she didn't know what to reply to the magazine as her and Sofia are genuinely friends, so she called her up to ask for her advice.

She then revealed that the Colombian-American actress told Julie to: 'Please just borrow my blouse.'
