==Appearance of the Dancers==
===C1===
The dancer is Countess Butterfly. She wears a black shiny leather dress, with a garter belt that connects it to her shiny black boots. The back of the dress has a large countess collar. She also wears a flowing golden evening gown that is open in front, with the hems of the sleeves, and the skirt flowing freely. A hot pink dress hoop "pushes" the gown out, making it look more like a 16th-century ballroom dress. She has a gold choker scarf and has blondish puffy hair that is curled at the end. She wears a hot pink glove and a black visor on her face.
===C2===

As for the shorts, they are shiny and brown too, with black cuffs on the hips as well. She wears burgundy ankle length high heel boots, and a similar looking brown glove. Her hair does not appear curled at the ends anymore, and the blonde hair is slightly paler. She wears a black butterfly-shaped visor on her face.

==Background==
The routine takes place in what appears to be an lunatic asylum. During the first verses of the song, she appears in a long slender hall with screens with people trying to escape from the sides. Lights light up the floor and make various triangular formations as she dances. The people in the screens on the sides try to push out, but cannot, due to the unknown material. As the chorus nears, backup dancers appear two men wearing only pink spandex pants and with a strange hairstyle, and two women wearing a pink one-piece, with long brown hair. They dance during the chorus too, and also during the chorus, the wall itself is another giant screen in which once again a person is trying to get out.
==Gold Moves==
There are 3 Gold Moves in this routine:
All Gold Moves: Bring your right hand down in a curve while hopping and put your left arm down.

==Trivia==
===General===
*Applause and are the first two songs by Lady Gaga in the series.
*There are two lyric errors:
**The line "I’ll turn the lights out" is misinterpreted as "Turn the lights on".
**The line "Now art’s in pop culture, in me" is misinterpreted as "Now art and pop culture in me".
*If one bought from GameStop and bought the ARTPOP album (following the instructions on receipt), they would have gotten an additional remix of Applause, the Bent Collective Club Mix.https://youtube.com/watch?v=1maZO6kMA_A
*The NATO phonetic alphabet translates LimaGolf (the song’s codename) to LG, the initials of Lady Gaga, the track's performer.
**This codename was probably used so the files would not be confused with the applause sound effect.
*In the trailer, the song was erroneously referred to as The Applause. This was fixed before the final release.
*Applause and Troublemaker are the only songs from to not have their alternate routines available on .
*A Party Master Mode was planned for Applause, but this was scrapped from the final game. Unused files for the unreleased Party Master Mode can still be found in the files for .:File:Jd2014 party master proof.png
===Routine===
*The backup dancers in the background are the first dancers in the series to have a visible skin tone, and faces, as opposed to the neon style of the main coaches.
*The two dancers do not have a "smooth" transition in between each other and is one of the few to do so. 
**Safe And Sound just has a flash when the dancers change, and Wild has sort of a glitchy transition.
*On camera consoles, Gold Move 1 and 3 cannot actually grant the "Yeah" feedback, but rather, the immediate next moves do so, which are performed with the left hand. This does not occur with Gold Move 2.https://youtu.be/EwUhKym99vU
**This particular Gold Move bug is also carried over to later appearances of the routine in .https://youtu.be/7-m26dXt9Zk
*The pictogram for the last move has the C1 color instead of the C2 color, suggesting that the coach was supposed to change back to C1 at the end (similar to Ain’t My Fault).
*The coach makes a cameo in ’s background. She is the only coach to make a cameo in that song.
**The coach’s color scheme is different from the original.
*The pictogram where you whip your right hand in-front of the left side of your waist appears three times in a row during the first chorus, but it only appears once in all the other choruses.
*Applause is one of the routines to have a Dancemas ornament.https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.387322048069918.1073741832.298090406993083&type=3
*In , the Effort rating was changed to Moderate from Chill on an unknown date.
