The dancer is a woman with pink braided hair, which has blue highlights striped around the sides of her head. She wears a pair of pink-and-black striped sunglasses, a light green-and-blue long-sleeved crop top, a pair of red-and-black striped pants with gold crosses, and a pair of cyan blue shoes. She also wears a gold necklace around her neck. At a few points, she turns black and white. She has a solid, bright yellow outline.
Background
At the beginning, the dancer comes out of a robot. Then the background has a triangle before the chorus. After this, the background switches to a patterned one with clones of the dancer, highly resembling the music video. In the verses, there are two fuchsia robots like the one of the beginning in front of a background with blue and fuchsia lines, and two other clones of the dancer.
Gold Moves
There are 4 Gold Moves in this routine:
Gold Moves 1, 3, and 4: Put both arms in the air, like a flexing pose. Gold Move 2: Pat your chest and take one step back.
At the end of the routine when the dancer turns into a robot, it appears to say "Built for this" before floating up.
Macarena (P4) is wearing the same pair of shoes as the dancer for this song.
On the PAL cover of the game, the dancer is wearing differently shaped shoes (as seen with a larger version of the picture) and is not wearing her glasses.
There was a photo leaked of the dancer for this routine when Just Dance 2014 was released.[citation needed]
The dancer lips syncs the line "You're the truth to me".
The beta appearance of the coach (with lime green shoes instead of teal ones) appears in Party Master modes in Just Dance 2015 and Just Dance 2016, and in Uptown Funk’s background and Mashup.
Even though the coach is not in her beta wardrobe Built For This (Party Master Mode), the Song Switch button shows her in her beta outfit.
The beta coach also has a different outline than the final version. Instead of being a solid outline all around her body, the outline is soft and fades towards her feet.
The coach makes several appearances in other songs.
She appears as a cameo appearance in the background of Chiwawain the sunglasses on the last dog.
The coach also appears in the background of Uptown Funk, during C4's last part.
The coach also makes a reappearance as a dancer in Sugar, paired with P3 of PoPiPo as a duet.
The coach was also supposed to be a backup dancer in the background of High Hopes, but was scrapped for unknown reasons.
The dancer appeared in the Beta icons of some cups in Dance Quests.[3]
In Uptown Funk (Mashup), the coach is not in black and white although she is in the original routine. In addition, Gold Move 2 is not counted as a move.
On October 17, 2019, the album coach got updated on the Just Dance Unlimited servers of Just Dance 2019 and Just Dance 2020.
The beta version of the song appears as a video preview on Just Dance Unlimited.
Community Remix
One of the players from Built For This (Community Remix) wears a robot suit resembling the ones in the background for the song.
In the Mashup, some left armed moves from Video Killed the Radio Star are counted for on the Wii U, while on other consoles, including camera consoles such as the Xbox One, only his right armed movements are counted for. This is abnormal, as the remote's scoring is heavily based off the right arm.
The counted left armed movements on the Wii U usually result in an 'X'.
The issue with non-counted left-hand moves on camera consoles also happens with Pump Up the Volume.
