Easter Eggs

As with several other games, the Just Dance series is no exception to having its own Easter Eggs. Here, you can browse through all the Easter eggs which Ubisoft has so kindly put in the Just Dance series.

What defines an Easter Egg?
An Easter Egg could be anything - something that unlocks additional content, "cameos" from dancers outside from their own song; really anything that can be considered "secret" or "bonus" content. They could even be beta elements (although this page should be left for the best of beta elements as there are already pages for that). Also, see songs with the title in the background for more Easter Eggs.

 * Ain't No Other Man features in So What's background, which may be contradictory because So What is featured on all consoles but Ain't No Other Man is a Wii U exclusive.

 * You’re the First, the Last, My Everything is played in the credits.

Just Dance 2014

 * Characters from Spectronizer appear in the background in Nitro Bot. This might not be a coincidence, because both songs are by the same artist - Sentai Express.
 * Several elements taken from other choreographies can be seen in the outfits of Safe And Sound.
 * The coach from Man Down (an unused routine in the game) can be seen in the background for the Blurred Lines choreography.
 * In Gentleman, a Disco Ball Head Dancer makes some appearances. However, what he is really meant for remains to be seen.

 * She also appears in the background of Rock N Roll
 * Stay Puft, a character in the Ghostbusters series, appears in Ghostbusters. Additionally, the three Ghostbusters and Slimer are playable characters.
 * Nitro Bot has lyrics which (most likely unintentionally) reference Just Dance Now. Considering that Nitro Bot was the replacement for Robot Rock, it may be enough evidence to make an educated guess that the two elements are related.
 * The golden rain from Umbrella can be seen in the background of Flashdance ... What a Feeling.
 * In the background of Blame It on the Boogie, the family's picture can be seen framed on the wall.
 * They will later appear in American Girl's background, during the line "I was raised by a television" (Blame It on the Boogie starts in something that looks like a sitcom).

 * Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) bears striking resemblances to the ABBA: You Can Dance version in terms of dancer and background.

P1 is the coach from Rasputin from Just Dance 2 and P2 from Hungarian Dance No. 5 from Just Dance 3, P2 is C3 from Moves Like Jagger from Just Dance 4, P3 is the coach from Viva Las Vegas from Just Dance 2, and P4 is the coach from Dare from Just Dance. They all have been slightly updated and are in higher quality.
 * Coaches from previous games - Call Me Maybe, Spectronizer, Can't Take My Eyes Off You and (I've Had) The Time Of My Life appear with slight alterations as backup dancers in Fine China.
 * Besides, the lyrics from the chorus are seen in the background in Chinese during said part.
 * Call Me Maybe, Spectronizer, Blurred Lines and the Sweat coach for Maria appear in Dançando as backup dancers.
 * Members of MainStreet appear in the background of their song My Main Girl.

 * In both C’mon and Timber, which feature a girl as P1 and a panda as P2, there is a brief part where the former jumps on the latter's back.
 * The words Boost Your Style can be seen in the background of Safe And Sound. This was the slogan for Garnier Fructis, which promoted the code for the song.
 * Love You Like A Love Song appears as a silhouette in the background of Just Dance 2014 and Just Dance 2015 Party Master Modes.
 * The dancer from the Extreme Version of Blame It on the Boogie has an effect near her glove just like the dancers from Michael Jackson: The Experience.
 * The silhouette of Beauty And A Beat appears when the icon of a dancer is not loaded yet; the most curious thing is that, behind it, you can see "JD5" written on it.
 * The Feel This Moment coach wears the same pants as Crazy Little Thing. She also wears the same shaped shoes as the lead dancer of the On-Stage mode of Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight), in a different colour.
 * P2's avatar of Sway (Quien Sera) reappears in an achievement of the game called "I ain't afraid of no ghost!", which can be gained by playing Ghostbusters as Slimer (P4), because it resembles Stay Puft from the omonyous film.
