The Irish Sun reports that taking a wing-woman out with you is the newest trend. And hey, she might even help you to get the shift. Score, right? Literally.

Going dancing? Make sure you take your partner-in-crime.

According to a new poll conducted by Lambrini, the ideal wing-woman is funny and friendly and she also knows how to have a bit of banter with members of the opposite sex. She’s also sound enough to let you have your pick of the fellas on a night out.

“The dating scene is a minefield and we all need a little support,” said Lorna Twee, a spokeswoman for Lambrini.

Do you have a wing-woman? If you don’t, which celeb would be your ideal pulling partner?
