The lead dancer is a man and the backup dancers are women.
P2
The lead dancer is a man who has black hair and wears black circular sunglasses. He is first seen wearing a yellow tank top, pink shorts with suspenders, blue soccer socks, and black shoes. At the chorus, he wears a light blue one-armed shirt and matching vest with glass-cut triangles on the bottom edge, blue pants, and purple sneakers. His head is enlarged and his body is shrunken, making him resemble a bobble-head model.
P1/P3
Both backup dancers are first seen with lavender hair in ponytails, wearing thin black glasses, pink and red split leotards, yellow and red socks, and green platform shoes. At the chorus, they change into yellow inflated captain hats, blue fluffy jackets, purple and maroon patent leotards, purple patent knee-high socks, and black high heel ankle boots.
P1 is the father (due to noticeable height differences). He wears a thick purplish blue jacket with pink zipper and with yellow and pink stripes in the middle. He wears a greenish teal shirt underneath it, in addition to his blue trousers. He also wears an orange headband. These clothes are commonly worn at a gym.
P2
P2 is the son. He wears the same clothes as his father but his clothes are shrunken to his size.
At the chorus, both P1 and P2's clothes are inverted, where the blues change to be orange-yellow and the headbands and gloves change to be teal. The teal shirts that they wear are also changed to pink.

Background
Classic
The routine takes place inside a room with a pink and white tiled floor, a front wall with yellow windows, and two side walls with pink and yellow equalizers. The floor flashes a bright yellow, with yellow squares popping outside the windows. At the chorus, the floor flashes other colors, having small squares of various colors (mostly pink) fly across the ceiling. Afterwards, the other background comes back, this time replacing the yellow flashes with blue ones. There are clones of the women lined up in neat columns behind the backup dancers.
Father/Son Version
The background in the father & son version takes place in a room with red and yellow background and with geometric shapes that have animated patterns. There is also a yellow door-like object that opens and closes. When a chorus occurs, the background changes to night time background and floor. At the bridge section, the room is blue.

Mashup
The Mashup has 2 Gold Moves, both of which are the same:
Both Gold Moves: Raise your right arm. (Gentleman - Sweat)
The routines are only available on Wii U, XBOX ONE, PS4, and PC. The other routines (the Panda Version of Don’t Stop Me Now and the Helmet Version of RADICAL) are replaced for the Chinese Version and the Nintendo Switch Version.
While the pictogram for Gold Moves 1, 2, and 4 have a regular golden outline, the pictogram for Gold Move 3 has a red one.
This makes DADDY the second routine where two Gold Move pictograms have differently-colored outlines, after Us Under The Sunshine.
The routine uses the official choreography from the music video in the chorus.
P2’s design is also based off of PSY’s appearance in the video.
In one pictogram, some white pixels can be seen near P2’s right arm.
Between E3 and Gamescom, P2’s mouth was black and therefore very visible. However, at the Brazil Game Show and in the final copies of the game, his mouth is mostly white.
C2 of P1/P3 is featured in Uno - Just Dance Theme Cards as an AI player under the name "Cutie".[5]
Father/Son Version
DADDY (Father/Son Version) is the second routine where the coaches interpret a father and his son, after Papaoutai.
