Barbie led the film nominees for the 2024 Golden Globe Awards, which were announced on Monday (Dec. 11). The blockbuster received nine nominations, including three of the six nods for best original song, motion picture.

“Dance the Night,” “I’m Just Ken” and “What Was I Made For?” are all nominated in that category, along with three non-Barbie songs – Bruce Springsteen’s “Addicted to Romance” from She Came to Me, Lenny Kravitz’s “Road to Freedom” from Rustin and Jack Black’s “Peaches” from The Super Mario Bros. Movie (which he co-wrote with four other writers).

More from Billboard

All three Barbie songs may be on the shortlist of 15 songs vying for the Academy Award for best original song, which will be released on Dec. 21, but no more than two of them can be nominated, per Oscar rules.

This is only the second time in Globes history that three songs from a film were nominated for best original song. This last happened with Aladdin in 1992 (when there were just five nominees in the category). “A Whole New World” won the award. “Friend Like Me” and “Prince Ali” were also nominated. Alan Menken and Tim Rice co-wrote all three songs.

Barbie is also nominated in the Globes’ new category, cinematic and box office achievement, along with six other feature films and Taylor Swift‘s Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, which quickly became the highest grossing concert film in history. The other feature films nominated in this category are Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, John Wick: Chapter 4, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part 1, Oppenheimer, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and The Super Mario Bros. Movie.

The late Robbie Robertson is nominated for best original score – motion picture for his work on Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon. The other nominated scores in that category are Jerskin Fendrix’s Poor Things, Ludwig Göransson’s Oppenheimer, Joe Hisaishi’s The Boy and the Heron, Mica Levi’s The Zone of Interest and Daniel Pemberton’s Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

All six of the composers nominated for best original score were born outside the U.S. Fendrix, Levi and Pemberton are English; Göransson is Swedish; Hisaishi is Japanese and Robertson was Canadian. This marks the first time since 2006 that all of the nominees in this category were born outside the U.S. The nominees that year were Alexandre Desplat (France), Gustavo Santaolalla (Argentina), Carlo Siliotto (Nomad), Hans Zimmer (Germany) and Clint Mansell (England).

On the film side, Barbie was followed in overall nominations by Oppenheimer (eight), Killers of the Flower Moon and Poor Things (seven each), Past Lives (five), and Anatomy of a Fall, Maestro and May December (four each).

On the TV side, Succession was the leading nominee with nine nods. It was followed by The Bear and Only Murders in the Building (five each) and The Crown (four).

Cedric “The Entertainer” and Wilmer Valderrama announced the nominations in 27 categories.

The 81st annual Golden Globe Awards will air live on CBS and stream on Paramount+ on Sunday, Jan. 7, at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. Emmy-winning producing duo Glenn Weiss and Ricky Kirshner of White Cherry Entertainment will serve as executive-producing showrunners, with Weiss also set to direct. Produced and owned by Dick Clark Productions, the Golden Globe Awards is one of the few awards ceremonies to include both motion picture and television achievements.
