The song sold 11 million copies worldwide, becoming the fourth best-selling song of 2014 and one of the best-selling singles of all times. Fatima Robinson directed the song's accompanying music video, a viral online success that was noted for its visuals and lighthearted nature.

Trainor has performed it on television and at various concerts, and notable artists have recorded cover versions.
