Here’s everything else you need to know about Hollywood’s Party of the Year.

This year’s list of nominees includes a bevy of first-time nominees, some former child stars, and a slew of fun surprises.

Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez, former child stars of Nickelodeon and Disney respectively, both received major acting recognition. Grande was recognized for her performance as Glinda in “Wicked,” while Gomez is nominated twice this year – in film for her performance in “Emilia Pérez” and on television for her Hulu series “Only Murders in the Building.”

Miley Cyrus, another Disney Channel alum, is also nominated for a Golden Globe this year in the Original Song for a Motion Picture category for her song “Beautiful That Way,” which she co-wrote with Lykke Li and Andrew Wyatt for the film Showgirl wrote “The Last.”

“Emilia Pérez,” the musical drama starring Gomez, Karla Sofía Gascón and Zoe Saldaña, dominated the film categories this year with 10 nominations. “The Brutalist” follows with seven nods and “Conclave” with six.
