This Remake of Spice Girls' 'Wannabe' Is Your New (Old) Feminist Anthem

#WhatIReallyReallyWant is extremely empowering, and we're *so* about it.

Today, social media exploded with super excited '90s kids (and anyone with good taste in music) talking about the super girl power-driven remake of “Wannabe,” a popular track from the Spice Girls.

The tag encourages everyone to post about what they really want for the girls of the world using the hashtag, #WhatIReallyReallyWant. And we’re *so* about it.

The video, made by The Global Girls, is undeniably fantastic. Not only does it feature extremely talented dancers from diverse backgrounds, but it’s a really important watch. The creators want everyone to share their thoughts so the message can reach the world leaders of the UN.

Former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham gave her blessing, and shared her own thoughts on the issue. What does she really want? No more girls dying of HIV.

Fave feminist Emma Watson shared her own thoughts to help garner support for the tag, which is so much more than a trend.

We’re hoping to see the hashtag go even farther than it already has, and are so excited to see a world that is more empowering for young girls and women.
