Her outfit changes colors in the chorus; a pink-and-orange bustier, green high waisted pants, fuchsia heels, and her hair turns blue and purple. She has a blue outline.

Background
Classic
The background is mainly brightly colored panels. The first displayed set is blue and purple, featuring four bass strings and female dancers in polka dot dresses. It switches to an orange circular background, with pebbles and lines bouncing with the song, and the backup dancers will occasionally appear doing poses similar to the main dancer. It changes to a green linear background during the chorus, and occasionally holes will pop up showing a backup dancer doing one of the various poses. In the chorus, the backup dancer only appears whenever a backup voice sings.
Flower & Bee Version
The alternate background is a sunny outdoor setting. The dancers stand on a large orange and pink mushroom. During the chorus, the mushroom grows up to the clouds and flowers are visible.

Trivia
General
All About That Bass is the first song by Meghan Trainor in the main series.
All About That Bass and Want To Want Me are the only songs revealed at E3 to not feature an interview with the Just Dance team.
The Radio Disney version of the song is used in-game, in which:
"I can shake it shake it" replaced with "I’mma make it make it"
"I’ve got that boom boom that all the boys chase" replaced with "I got them smooth moves they say I look great"
"I’ve got all the right junk in all the right places" replaced with "I’ll be that star on all them big stages"
"S**t" is replaced with "it"
"Booty" is replaced with "beauty"
"A little more booty to hold at night" is replaced with "the girls for the beauty they hold inside"
"Skinny b***hes" is replaced with "haters"
"No, I’m just playing I know you think you’re fat" is replaced with "Just so you know I’m gonna be tweetin’ that".
In spite of the censorship, however, the song was teased through the line "Shake it, shake it, like you’re supposed to do".
In the lyrics, "I’mma" (in "I’mma make make it, like I'm supposed to do") is misspelled as "ima", "Tell all them haters that" appears as "Tell them haters that" (without "all"), and "You know you like this bass" is not in the lyrics.
The song title is referenced in a playlist in Just Dance Now, where All About That Bass is featured.
Classic
The routine uses some of the moves from the music video.
The background and the backup dancers are inspired by the music video, too.
The coach’s glove sometimes glitches out, becoming purplish-orange or orange-purple.
There is a glitch where sometimes the Classic coach’s hair disappears into her skin.
It may even pass through it and come out at another place, like her face or her chest.
In fact, a part of the coach’s mouth becomes purple at a certain point.
The coach was teased through a silhouette posted on Facebook.
In the E3 preview gameplay, the pictograms for C1 were aqua green instead of fuchsia.
The menu icon was slightly different in the E3 demo: the background was the same as the final version, but it was green, and the coach was more zoomed out.
The coach appears in the icon of Dance Party on Just Dance 2016, along with some other dancers from the game.
On the Wii version of Just Dance 2016, the game will sometimes glitch and make the audio repeat the word "because" while the routine is being played. This glitch disappears after the routine ends.[citation needed]
Originally, the Just Dance Now album cover used the pose from the menu square rather than of the album coach.
The coach reappears as a silhouette in Wherever I Go’s background.
Flower & Bee Version
A Beta version can be found in the Just Dance Unlimited servers, showing a totally different background and a shadow behind the coaches. The dance moves are also off-beat.[1]
