Appearance of the Dancers
P1
P1 is a woman with short light orange hair in a bob, and a blue feather in her hair, which is connected to a red band by a white ring. She is wearing a light orange elbow-length glove on her left hand, a big white bracelet on her wrist, a hot pink Charleston dress with light brown accessories, a pair of bright yellow heels, and a blue glove on her right hand, which covers another light orange elbow-length glove.
P2
P2 is a man with a dark orange fedora that has a dark blue stripe. He is wearing a blue shirt with a melon undershirt, a pair of pink suspenders, an orange and pink striped tie, a pair of melon pants with purple pockets, and a pair of white shoes with purple accessories. He also wears a hot pink glove.
Remake
In the remake, the coaches don't change, except for the fact that they are more realistic and that some of their clothes are slightly darker, and some other clothes are visibly lighter. P1’s glove is now light brown, but some spots of it are dark brown. They now have a very visible white outline.
Background
Just Dance 2
The background is a light brown stage with dark brown decorations. There are many lights on the floor, which are reflective.
Just Dance 3/Best Of
In Just Dance 3/Best Of, the background is lighter and the floor is darker but still reflective. Two spotlights appear from the sides of the background. In the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3, a spotlight moves around the screen at the beginning before the dancers start dancing.
Remake
In the Remake, the background has no changes, except that the floor is slightly darker and that the spotlights are removed.

Just Dance Now
- All Songs K-R
Trivia
- The name of the song may be a word pun and reference to Bugsy Malone, a 1976 British musical gangster film (notable for featuring only child actors) which was set in the early 1920s Chicago.[3]
- Despite being a Duet, a clip of the song is used at the end of the preview music for Just Dance 2’s Solo Medley.
- In the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3, P1 has one more Gold Move than P2 as P2's original 4th Gold Move is not present.[4]
- This makes it the first routine to have an uneven distribution of Gold Moves.
- In all versions prior to the remake, if you look closely, you can notice that P1’s dress is very glitchy and constantly changes color to red.
- P1's glove constantly glitches and changes from brown to light brown.
- When P1 performs the first gold move her dark brown hair and gloves turn bright yellow.
- This could be because of the gradient color scheme.
- In the preview gameplay of Just Dance 2, P1’s pictograms have blue arrows instead of P2’s.
- P2's avatar looks heavily different from the coach: its fedora is red with a blue band, and it has a red bandana instead of a tie.
- On Just Dance Now, the pictograms are extremely glitchy, with some of them reaching the end of the slide out of sync and others being unintentionally cropped in half.
- In the square from Just Dance 2, the dancers’ clothes have completely different shades (probably for vintage effects) : P1 has a light purple feather in her hair, a red dress with darker accessories, lighter hair, and a lighter purple glove on her left hand, while P2 wears an orange fedora, a magenta-purple shirt, darker suspenders, yellow pants, an orange and white striped tie, and a red glove.
- They are also mirrored, and the coaches are switched.
- This was fixed in Just Dance 3 and Just Dance: Best Of.
- On the background, two yellow spotlights appear, which were removed in the remake.
- They are also mirrored, and the coaches are switched.
- Two slight mistakes can be seen on the pictograms of the remake: in the first one, there are some magenta pixels on P1’s swirl arrow; in the second one, two small parts of P2’s swirl arrow are fuchsia instead of blue.
- Mugsy Baloney is the oldest song in Just Dance 2.
- In the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3, both coaches are reversed in the coach selection screen.
