THANK YOU to everyone who helped bring her story to life and to The Academy for acknowledging my role as Tammy Faye. I am over the moon!"

Lin-Manuel Miranda was one of the many who took to social media to celebrate.

The actor, singer-songwriter and playwright is nominated in the best original song category for "Dos Oruguitas" from "Encanto." This nomination puts Miranda in the running this year to earn the highly coveted EGOT status, which requires winning a Grammy, Emmy, Tony and Oscar.

He is already an Emmy, Tony and Grammy Award winner.

Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas issued a statement about their nomination in the same category for "No Time To Die":

"Words cannot describe how honored and excited we are to have been nominated for an Academy Award for our song 'No Time To Die.' It was a lifelong dream of ours to write a Bond theme, and one we never thought would ever come true. It’s completely unbelievable that we are here being recognized for this song, and this is a peak life experience for us as songwriters and artists. To be recognized today among these other incredible nominees is something we most certainly do not take for granted. Thank you to the Academy, from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you to Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson for allowing us this incredible opportunity, and to be part of Daniel Craig’s unparalleled legacy as James Bond. Thank you to Cary Joji Fukunaga, and last but not least, thank you to Hans Zimmer, Stephen Lipson and Johnny Marr for being an absolute joy to work with on this song."

Questlove, who is nominated in the best documentary feature category for "Summer of Soul (…Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised)," shared a statement celebrating his nomination:

"It is a huge honor to receive this nomination. The Harlem Cultural Festival was both a testament to Black genius and Black joy at a formative time in our country’s history, and a cautionary tale about the way that history, especially Black history, can be erased. Being entrusted with the responsibility of keeping that past visible has been one of the great honors of my life. I am beyond gratified to be nominated alongside these four other incredible filmmakers. Congratulations to the entire filmmaking team and everyone at Searchlight, Onyx, and Hulu."

It is a great blessing to be a part of my King Richard family. Thank you to everyone for supporting us & our movie. We feel your love.
