An Amy Winehouse theme song adds to the gritty-chic vibe. In a way that is sure to offend liberal feminists and conservative moralists alike, Call Girl is glamorous yet not glamorized. Belle has expensive clothes and a fab flat, but she doesn't have a fantasy life--just a well-paying job embodying men's fantasies...
Openly campaign for the position or look like you covet it. Try to come across as the player who will dive for the loose ball not like the guard who takes a shot every time he touches the ball...
