As she turned 24, Julia Barretto talked about the things she went through, particularly the part where she's being “crucified” by critics for her choices.

In a recent vlog of photographer BJ Pascual, she was asked how she deals with bashers and if there was ever a time she fought back with them.

“The older I’m getting, I’m slowly starting to realize how important it is to compartmentalize: what matters and what doesn’t matter,” Julia said.

“Sometimes, when it’s the opinion from people who don’t have a significant role in your life, and who really don’t matter to you - who you don’t even know - I’m never going to be affected by it. Because you don’t know me, I don’t know you, we can’t judge each other. It’s just not possible,” she explained.

Julia thinks the only opinions that really just matter to her are the judgments of her family, friends, and people who are close to her.

"The ones who really know me,” Julia reiterated.

The daughter of Marjorie Barretto and Dennis Padilla continued how she mastered the art of deadma (dead malice).

"Also you know the older that I'm getting and the longer that I've been in the business -- because I started out at six years old and, being in a family where, you know, a lot of them have been in the spotlight for so many years and growing up in the spotlight also -- whether you do something good or bad people always have something to say. So keep going, keep doing you. And wala may masasabi e," she said. "Kahit ang ganda na ng nagawa mo meron pa rin silang masasabi."

Julia shared she's not the type of person who entertains haters unless they have crossed the line.

"I will answer but never in a bastos way," she added, relating she doesn't pay back bad for bad.

“I believe in paying back good sa bad. Fight a good fight of faith, ‘diba, sabi sa Bible,” she explained.

“I’m always hoping for the best for them every time I reply. For you to be talking to me this way, you must be going through something. Kung at peace ka, masaya ka, you’ll not talk to anybody that way. I look at it na, maybe they’re not okay, maybe there’s something they want to improve or change in their life na hindi pa nababago."

She reiterated that she doesn't want to judge other people because she knows what it’s like to be judged.
