Beyoncé solidified her edge as the most-nominated female artist in history, with a total of 52 nominations, including five nominations earned so far today (Best R&B Performance, Best R&B Song, Best Urban Contemporary Album, Best Surround Sound Album, and Best Music Film). She surpassed Dolly Parton by just one nomination last year at the 56th GRAMMY Awards.

Nominated for Best American Roots Performance for "And When I Die," Alison Krauss holds the distinction as the female artist with the most GRAMMY wins, with 27 to date.

Beyoncé and Sam Smith are currently tied for most 57th GRAMMY nominations with five nods each, and both are eligible for Album Of The Year. Smith is nominated in Record Of The Year, Song Of The Year, Best New Artist, Best Pop Solo Performance, and Best Pop Vocal Album.

Nominated for Best Rock Album for Songs Of Innocence, U2 are the most GRAMMY-nominated group in history, with a total of 46 nominations as of this year.

Nominated for Best Spoken Word Album for Diary Of A Diva, the late Joan Rivers received her second-ever GRAMMY nomination this year. She was previously nominated for Best Comedy Recording in 1983.

Miley Cyrus scored her first-ever GRAMMY nomination this year with Bangerz, which is up for Best Pop Vocal Album.

Earning a nomination in Best Dance Recording for her collaboration with Disclosure on "F For You," Mary J. Blige stands to win her 10th GRAMMY Award this year. Blige won her first GRAMMY for Best Rap Performance for her collaboration with Method Man on "I'll Be There For You/You're All I Need To Get By."

Gloria Gaynor's audiobook, We Will Survive: True Stories Of Encouragement, Inspiration, And The Power Of Song, scored a nomination for Best Spoken Word Album. The last time she was nominated was more than 35 years ago at the 22nd Annual GRAMMY Awards, when "I Will Survive" won Best Disco Recording in 1979, the only year the category existed. The song was inducted into the GRAMMY Hall Of Fame® in 2012.

As a couple, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill have been nominated five times for Best Country Duo/Group Performance (they've won twice). This year's nomination for “Meanwhile Back At Mama's” brings their total to six nods in this category alone. (Note: The category was formerly named Best Country Collaboration With Vocals).

Miranda Lambert and Eric Church are both nominated in all four Country categories.

Artist Lecrae transcended musical genres to earn nominations in three different categories: Best Rap Performance, Best Gospel Performance/Song, and Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
