The routine is performed by four different male dancers.
C1[]
The first dancer has buzz-cut hair. He wears a reflex blue fedora, a reflex blue vest, a purple loose tie over a viridian button down shirt, gray pants, a purple belt, and viridian shoes. His outline is green. For the beginning of the verse, he straightened his tie.
C2[]
The second dancer wears a purple cap, an orange leather jacket, a purple shirt, dark gray pants, and neon orange shoes. His outline is orange.
C3[]
The third dancer resembles Mick Jagger. He has shoulder length black hair. He wears a red headband, dark aviator sunglasses, an opened red jacket with purple belts, Union Jack leggings, and black boots. His outline is red.
C4[]
The fourth dancer is bald. He wears yellow shutter shade glasses, a purple and blue one-sleeved jacket with a cut-out shaped like tiger stripes, a light turquoise shirt, gray pants with multiple zipper pockets on each side, and purple and yellow sneakers. He ends the song. His outline is purple.
Background[]
The background is based off the NBC reality show The Voice. The dance floor consists of a circular platform with colorful light-up panels behind, as well as the silhouette of an audience, and four judges on the turning chairs behind the panels.
"Now I’m naked" is misinterpreted as "Now I make it" in the lyrics.
"S**t" is replaced with "stand", but it is fully censored in the lyrics.
On Just Dance Now and later games, "sh" was removed from the word "s**t".
Moves Like Jagger was referenced by Ubisoft in the ESRB label of Just Dance 4, in which the following lyric was cited: "Take me by the tongue . . . Kiss me ’til you’re drunk,"[4]
In Ubisoft’s press release announcing the removal of specific songs from Just Dance Now and Just Dance Unlimited, Christina Aguilera is misspelled as "Christin Aquilera".[5]
Classic[]
C4 of Moves Like Jagger is the first bald coach in the series.
Towards the end of the first chorus, when C4 transforms back to C1, the moves are notably slowed down.
Additionally, there are several moments where the coach is edited while he turns around in order to make him stay within the circle on the floor.
The background was different during production, as the song title was spelled in caps and in various colors on the big wall.
On the Just Dance 4 trailer, C3 can be seen performing moves that are assigned to C1 or C2. This might mean that the coach was not meant to change his outfit during production.
This is also proven by the old Just Dance Now servers, where there are 30 Beta pictograms that have C3’s color scheme but depict moves performed by the other coaches.
C1 appeared in the trailer for Gamescom. Near the end, he seems to perform the choreography from the chorus, which he does not do it in the final gameplay.
C4 appears on the NTSC box art of Just Dance 4 with a different color scheme.
C3 makes an appearance in one of the glass windows in Just Dance.
The Battle color scheme for C3 is used in Puppet Master Modes as a "Strike The Pose!" picture; however, his clothes are in a lighter shade of red, and his glove is yellow rather than pink.
C3’s avatar has a different design from the one seen on Just Dance 2014, with his neck now visible right below his head in the avatar. This alteration was performed on Just Dance Wii U, and carried onto Just Dance 2015 and future games.
On Just Dance 2015, only the avatar of C3 is available.
On Just Dance 2016 however, C1 and C3’s avatars are available, along with a new avatar of C4.
In the shop of Just Dance 2015, the main coach’s silhouette can be seen on the song icons which do not load up.
On Just Dance Unlimited, the audience’s applause was removed from the end of the routine for a short period of time. However, it was re-added during the 2017 system only.
Moves Like Jagger makes a brief appearance in the video "Ubisoft Paris - 30 years of games!".[6]
The routine can be spotted in the background of Canned Heat.
On Just Dance+, C2’s remade pictograms are in a different shade of orange compared to the old ones.
The routine appears in the background of Sunlight on a TV.
Mashup[]
Most of the dancers who appear during Maroon 5’s part are males, and most of the dancers who appear during Christina’s part are females.
Although Lilith is in her C2 color scheme (blue), her pictograms are still red.
This does not occur on the Wii version.[citation needed]
Puppet Master Mode[]
Moves Like Jagger (Puppet Master Mode) is the only Puppet Master Mode in Just Dance 4 with captions that appear more than once.
The Puppet Master Mode has a glitch, where Oh No!’s "Goofy Skipping" appears as Maneater’s "Hypnotic Slaps".
Additionally, a beta pictogram is used for the specific caption, aswell as this move being counted twice rather than once.
During this course, the coach is slightly slowed down.
Usually these moves will be counted for as a "OK" or an "X".
This glitch is also the case with Venus, where the caption "Run 'N' Throw" appears as Party Rock Anthem’s caption by the name "Party Wings".
This could be a glitch potentially due to the captions being used with the correct routines 2 appearances afterwards.
The following anomalies can be noticed.
The coach fades in while walking from the left.
The pictograms from the caption "Hypnotic Slaps" are red in spite of the coach being in her blue form.
In early versions of Just Dance 4, the caption "Rip It Off" was replaced by a caption from Hot N Cold.[7]
Additionally, Call Me’s "Nightclub" caption erroneously used a pictogram from its chorus, despite the coach performing the first move from each verse.
