Name: Angie Starr

Dealbreaker for a guy: A huge ego.
What is your go-to drink?: Goose and tonic, extra lime.
What was your best/worst date?: The best date has involved sitting on a beach and just relaxing. The worst ones usually turn sour when a guy tries too hard to impress me to the point where it's obnoxious. (i.e., spending loads of money on a date, bragging about themselves, etc.)
Biggest turn-on: A sense of humor as goofy as mine.
Biggest trend turn-off on a guy: Dirty shoes...a huge pet peeve of mine as a matter of fact.
Favorite rap song of all time: "One Mic," Nas.

its sad/refreshing that these females got better music tastes than the guys on street detail.

In general it seems that women are smarter than men, but this is the first place that complex has shown that, cause normally its all about their breasts. finally complex is being well rounded (like a perfect boob)
