The dancer is a woman named Alec. She has red hair styled in a pixie cut. She wears a denim vest over a light-red crop top with black stars, red leather pants, and dark blue boots. She wears a black fingerless glove and has a sky blue outline that fades at her boots.
The routine takes place in what seems to be Alec's living room, with a white couch, a pair of pink sneakers, and a wooden bookcase which changes colors with the walls. The walls are purple with white stripes in the verses and bridge. Furniture falls onto the ground, such as a television, a desk with a computer, a chest of drawers, and a washing machine. During the verses, the couch, sneakers, bookcase and walls shake. During the chorus, the walls turn red and the furniture explodes into multiple pieces. Cracks can be seen on the floor, and walls when she performs certain moves. Whenever "tonight" is sung, disco lights appear until "so what" is sung again.
Gold Moves[]
There are 3 Gold Moves in the routine:
Gold Move 1: While slightly bending down, shake your right hand, which should be bent at the elbow. Gold Move 2: Flex your right arm and kiss your forearm. Gold Move 3: Put your hands up high and quickly punch once.
When it is censored, however, there are no ellipses.
At the end of the Mashup, Alec fades away before doing the raspberry; at the end of the Puppet Master Mode, however, she can be seen turning around while she fades away.
Classic[]
The last pictogram of the routine sticks its tongue out. This makes So What the first routine in the series to have a pictogram with facial features.
In Puppet Master Mode on Just Dance 4, Hot N Cold and So What have a caption with the same name, which is "Tear It Up". This is the only case in the history of Puppet or Party Master Mode.
From Just Dance 2014 onwards, however, the caption for So What was renamed to "Angry Girl".
Alec’s name might be inspired by Pink’s birth name, which is Alecia Beth Moore Hart.
Alec’s haircut is also inspired by Pink’s pixie cut, especially from her Missundaztood era. The hair color, however, is inspired from the Can’t Take Me Home era.
The right pocket of the Alec’s pants sometimes turns transparent due to an editing glitch.
The menu assets show that the walls are pink in the mirror, even though they are purple in the square, verses and bridge and red in the chorus.
In the first verse, the gameplay for Ain’t No Other Man is displayed on the TV screen.
The appearance can be seen on all versions, despite the fact that Ain’t No Other Man can only be played on the Wii U version of Just Dance 4.
Another strange fact is that this gameplay appears to have pictograms but no star bar, scoring system/interface or lyrics.
Also, the end of the pictogram bar features the flashing triangle from the Wii and PS3 versions of Just Dance 3 and Just Dance: Greatest Hits/Best Of instead of the flashing rectangle used in the final build of Just Dance 4.
Besides, the pictograms are red with cobalt arrows instead of navy blue and magenta.
Once the TV is broken, the stand that holds the TV stays intact and disappears when the lights turn back on.
In Just Dance 4, the menu icon sometimes glitches, and a placeholder shows up instead of the actual dancer.
In Just Dance 4 and the old Just Dance Now servers, Alec is slightly stretched vertically on the menu icon and on the coach selection image.
This has been fixed in Just Dance+, where the outline has also been made thinner and more solid.
In the old Just Dance Now servers, there are four beta pictograms.
One of them only consists of a head sticking its tongue out.
The pictograms for We No Speak Americano are purple with red arrows, even though he is in his C1 form.
The caption for "Swanky" uses C1’s pictograms, even though the moves are performed by C3.
The pictograms for the caption "Marshmallow" fade away one beat earlier.
The pictograms for the caption "Cyber Punch" fade away two beats later.
The pictogram that replaces Gold Move 3 for So What has slightly differently positioned arms compared to the original one.
The following bugs may occur:
During the caption "Marshmallow", a pictogram for Holiday is accidentally displayed one beat before Bella appears.[1]
During the caption "Devil Wind Up", a pictogram for Good Feeling (Extreme Version) appears on the pictogram bar but disappears before it reaches the end.[2]
