Wannabe (TV series)

Wannabe is a British reality and talent show with Toby Anstis and ex-Big Brother housemate Chanelle Hayes, David Laudat and Roseanne McBride. It is a search for a new girl group similar to the Spice Girls consisting of five women over 25 years old.

The Spice Girls's attorneys found out about the show and had conversations with the show's representatives. Originally called Wannabe: Spice Girls, the show was renamed to Wannabe to prevent a protracted legal dispute with the girl group.
