# Pop Song Pick-Up Lines The Amanda Maston ‘Call Me Maybe’ Stint is Revealing By Laura Robbins | Published 2012-07-22 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/is-call-me-maybe-a-good-pick-up-line References: [ca.music.yahoo](http://ca.music.yahoo.com/blogs/upbeat/carly-rae-jepsen-call-maybe-universal-pick-line-191513791.html) & [youtube](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_Q_SWnZdTU&feature=player_embedded) The Amanda Maston ‘Call Me Maybe’ video is a great look at what happens when a girl tries to use this now-popular pickup line. Just like [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinder-5) star Rob Delaney, who attempts to get girls’ numbers using the popular lines from the song, aspiring actress and comedian Amanda Maston has created a video similar to Delaney. Maston approaches men on the streets of Hollywood, Los Angeles, using Jepsen’s song lyrics “Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but here’s my number, call me maybe?” Unlike Delaney’s success, the Amanda Maston ‘Call Me Maybe’ video shows she has a harder time getting numbers from men. Perhaps it is a gender thing, or maybe it’s her delivery. Either way it shows this pickup line works better for males over females. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.7/10 - Popularity: 34% | Activity: 69% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Internet](https://www.trendhunter.com/internet) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Pop Song Pickup Lines:** The use of popular song lyrics as a pickup line is a trend that highlights the power of music to connect people in social settings. - **Gender Differences in Pickup Lines:** Exploration of the different success rates for pickup lines of men versus women presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the dating industry. - **Comedic Pickup Line Videos:** The creation of humorous videos that depict the use of pickup lines can inspire new multimedia content and marketing strategies in various industries. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Music Industry:** The power of music demonstrated in pop song pickup lines could be utilized by the music industry to promote its artists and songs. - **Dating Industry:** The exploration of gender differences in pickup line success rates presents an opportunity for the dating industry to improve its matchmaking algorithms and personalize its services. - **Marketing Industry:** The creation and promotion of comedic pickup line videos can inspire new marketing strategies and multimedia content in various industries, including advertising and entertainment. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [AI Pickup Line Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pickup-line-generators.md) - [Singer Soda Music Videos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/so-good.md) - [Video-Enabled Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candid-dating-app.md) - [Playful Dating Experiment Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swipe-right-for-mayo.md) - [Movie-Inspired Dating App Features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bumble-barbie-compliments.md) - [Rom-Com Dating App Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinder-it-starts-with-a-swipe.md) - [Playful Gen-Z Dating Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crush-feelings.md) - [Iconic Halloween Candy Songs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-corn-1.md) - [User-Prompting Dating App Features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hinge-dating-app.md)
