When I Grow Up

"When I Grow Up" is a song by The Pussycat Dolls and is on Just Dance 2. There was a Contest held which let fans choreograph own dances to "When I Grow Up." Three winners got their dances recorded (the winners were dancing themselves) and added into the game as Alternate dances.

Grown-Up
The song starts with a grown-up Celebrity lady. She's wearing an aqua and purple dress. Her hair and sunglasses appears to be aqua too, and she's wearing a purple hat, one purple glove (the other is hot pink) as well as light blue high-heels. She's standing "on" The Red Carpet and around her there are paparazzis, palmtrees, railings and it might be glowing lights from a city.

Teen
Every time "When I grow up" is sung the lady "turns" into a teen/kid in her room who wishes to become famous when she grows up. She's in fact wearing the same accessories as her adult-form but instead of a dress and high-heels, she's wearing an orange t-shirt with matching shorts, plain white shoes with purple socks. A feather boa has been added, and her hair and glasses are orange like her clothes. Her room is displayed as very orange, a window with curtains can be seen, a bed, an armchair/sofa with lots of cuddly toys, a bed with a dolphin on it and a clothes-hanger. Also, a appears on the couch as one of the stuffed animals.
