Spice Girls' debut single (7)

I believe the answer is:

wannabe

(Other definitions for wannabe that I've seen before include "One aiming (ineffectively) at a certain style etc" , "Aspiring film star possibly" , "Ambitious person" , "One ambitious to fit in, succeed" , "hopeful" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
