Single babes losing heart for stars (5)
I believe the answer is:
idols
'stars' is the definition.
(idol is a kind of star)
'single babes losing heart' is the wordplay.
'single' becomes 'i' (one).
'babes' becomes 'dolls'.
'losing heart' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters).
'dolls' with its centre removed is 'dols'.
'i'+'dols'='IDOLS'
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for idols that I've seen before include "Much-admired persons" , "Solid (anag.)" , "Effigies worshipped as gods" , "Graven images sometimes worshipped" , "Objects of worship" .)
