Background
Classic
The background is at first seen inside an animated waiting room, complete with a red and black chair, a purple brick wall, and a red door. Going outside the nearby window, there is a large city similar to that of Uptown Funk's. The buildings greatly vary in color and the floor has colorful flowing loops. The coach makes various painted effects with some dance moves. A couple of sketched cars are drawn out, slowly driving on a pink and orange striped road.
In the chorus, the coach is on a road that is shown horizontally. As long as the coach dances, many sketches create and color by themselves appear: they show many skyscrapers, stars, and lipsticks.
During Sean Paul’s lines, there are drawings of buildings coming to life and being colored afterwards; there are also yellow stars floating around along with lipstick and some lips.
At the end, all buildings disappear and are replaced by a sky made of colorful animations. The floor is animated with waves made of lines in shaded of blue, purple and lime green.
Bollywood Version
The background is a bollywood market with a big door behind the dancers. There are sacks of food on the left and on the right you will see a bike. The background is full of symbols. At the chorus, the background will turn to nighttime and a lot of buildings will be shown and the words "i love cheap thrills" will be shown everytime it is sung.
Mashup
The song has a Mashup on Just Dance 2017. It contains dancers with sunglasses, much like the Mashup for Blame (from Just Dance 2016).
