Background

The song has been released as Gillette's second single from her debut solo album On The Attack worldwide, while in Poland and Germany, it has been released as 20 Fingers's third single credited as "20 Fingers featuring Gillette" from their debut album On the Attack and More. The track achieved success in Italy and Belgium, where it was a top 20 hit. However, sales were lower than 20 Fingers' previous hits "Short Dick Man" and "Lick It". The song also charted in Germany, New Zealand and Switzerland.

Ugly Mix

The B-Side of "Mr. Personality" is the "Ugly Mix" of the song. Technically about the same content, it is completely a different song with different beat arrangement, recorded vocals, and different lyric text and refrain. The structure of the Ugly Mix follows the style of 20 Fingers and Gillette's hit song "Short Dick Man", which has a dance beat instead of a hip hop beat and a rock beat, with minimalistic vocals, the rap verses completely removed and replaced by spoken repeatings such as in the refrain, where it was "Do, Don't, Don't, Don't want no ugly mothersucker" or "I, I, I, I don't think so, I don't think so" ("Eeny, weeny, teeny, weeny" or "Don't, Don't, Don't, Do Do, Don't, Don't, Don't" as it was in "Short Dick Man").

gollark: I really do *not* like hydro going on about how "altruistic" he is when he also goes around extracting huge profits. I mean, self-interest, sure. Fine with me. But effectively lying about it?
gollark: I mean, he probably loses money buying useless things like diamond, but profits everywhere else.
gollark: "Losing money"? Really?
gollark: I buy at 0.5KST per iron ingot and sell at 0.55.
