Background[]
Original[]
The routine takes place in a nightclub. There is a disco ball on the ceiling and a large dance floor on the floor, which flashes different colours. There are also coloured spotlights on the ceiling which flash to the beat of the song. At the beginning of the routine, the dancers appear being formed out of multicoloured lights; at the end of the routine, the reverse happens, with the dancers exploding into several mulitcoloured lights.
Remake[]
In the remake, the routine now takes place in Scarlet’s Palace,[5] specifically in a lounge room. At the beginning of the routine, the dancers now appear with an orange shimmer as they are formed by dots and the lounge is shrouded in darkness, with the only lights coming from some seating areas, and the lights on the sides of the raised floors which flash to the beat. The two disco balls on the ceiling then light up, before the tiles of the dance floor - coloured orange - the dancers are standing on begin lighting up to the beat and move according to their movements. The red spotlights on the ceiling then flash as well.
When the first verse begins, a large, golden disco ball lights up as the lights in the lounge flash to the beat. As the first chorus begins, the two disco balls light up again, several dancers appear in the background in silhouette, and glitter falls from the golden disco ball. In addition, a neon sign reading "Disco" flashes up in the background. During the bridge, the tiles on the dance floor turn purple and the lights in the lounge begin flashing different colours like blue and purple. At the end of the routine, the dancers gain an orange shimmer before bursting into dots.

Trivia[]
General[]
- Hot Stuff is the first song by Donna Summer in the series.
- An extended version of the song is featured on Just Dance Video Game Hits, Volume 1.
Routine[]
- Originally, the coaches were pointed to a more red-purple color palette, and their positions were switched.
- However, P1 still appears in the place of P2 and vice versa on the menu icon of Just Dance 2 and on the Just Dance Now cover.
- Originally, the choreography was different from the final product, and so were the Gold Moves: P1 had to point to P2 with both of their arms while P2 had to put their hands on their heart.[6]
- The routine was featured in the music video for Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.).
- In a beta promotional image for Just Dance 2 and in Promiscuous (Mashup), the coaches have an inverted color palette (purple instead of orange, and orange instead of purple), and the Gold Move is removed in the latter.
- P1’s silhouette appears in later games as an Easter egg: it appears in the menu of Just Dance 3, Just Dance: Greatest Hits/Best Of, Just Dance Wii 2, in Just Dance 4 on the Strike The Pose button in Puppet Master Modes, and on Just Dance 2014 when players vote for a song on the World Dance Floor.
- Her silhouette also appears on placeholder map assets.
- In the remake, a part of the coaches’ hair turns orange for a few split seconds at the beginning of the routine.
- In a similar way, the dark blue of their hair bleeds into, respectively, P1’s red shoulder strap and P2’s collar.
- This may be due to how the coaches’ chroma-key was handled, meaning that the red parts of their outfits, their hair and P2’s sunglasses might have all been in the same base color for the recording and then changed separately during post-processing.
- Besides, during the bridge, P1’s yellow part of her dress flashes back to yellow for a few split seconds. This happens twice within a few seconds of each other.
- In a similar way, the dark blue of their hair bleeds into, respectively, P1’s red shoulder strap and P2’s collar.
- Hot Stuff, Mambo No. 5 (A Little Bit of Monika), and Why Oh Why are the only routines from Just Dance 2 where the coach selection images use different poses from both the menu square and album coach in the remake.
- Of these, it is the only one to not have any coach selection images before the remake.
- Along with TiK ToK and U Can’t Touch This, Hot Stuff was temporarily removed from Just Dance Now on March 26, 2015. However, they returned later that day.
- In Just Dance 2023 Edition, the avatar background is called "Shake It at Scarlet’s", implying the routine takes place at Scarlet’s Palace; however, the remake was finalized in February 2015, six years before the creation of You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real) (which marks the first appearance of Scarlet’s Palace in the history of Just Dance).
- P2’s shoes are reused from That’s the Way (I Like It) and the beta coach of A Little Less Conversation.
- Coincidentally, all three of them are from the same performer, Jérémy Paquet.
