A look at interesting factoids during the Grammy nominations, announced Tuesday:

v BEYONCE IS A ROCK STAR: Beyonce set a record for earning nominations in the rock, pop, R&B and rap categories in the same year with her diverse album “Lemonade.” Only two other acts have earned nominations in those same four categories — Paul McCartney and Janet Jackson — but never in the same year.

v BEYONCE VS. ADELE: The Grammys are basically the battle of Beyonce and Adele: In four of her five nominations, Adele will go toe-to-toe with Queen Bey.

v YOU’VE BEEN SNUBBED: Though Beyonce earned a whopping nine nominations, it’s a surprise her name didn’t pop up in the best R&B song and R&B performance categories, which she has dominated in the past. Speaking of R&B, Solange’s epic “A Seat at the Table” was surprisingly snubbed in the best urban contemporary album category, as was Chris Brown’s “Royalty,” which didn’t earn the singer a single nod.

v BRUNO MARS, THE PRODUCER, SHINES: Bruno Mars just released a new album — too late for the 2017 nominations — so he’ll likely dominate the 2018 Grammys. But thanks to co-producing “All I Ask” for Adele, he’s nominated for album of the year (it appears on her best-seller “25”).

v DIPLO VS. DIPLO: Diplo, who produced on Bieber and Beyonce’s album, will battle himself for album of the year.

“Hairspray Live!” (8 p.m., NBC): No, you just can’t stop the beat. This fresh adaptation of the beloved musical comes bursting into prime time with newcomer Maddie Baillio leading the way. She plays teenager Tracy Turnblad, who shakes up a TV dance show in 1962 Baltimore and meets an array of colorful characters in the process. The impressive cast includes Kristin Chenoweth, Ariana Grande, Harvey Fierstein, Jennifer Hudson, Martin Short, Derek Hough and Sean Hayes.

“Criminal Minds” (9 p.m., CBS): Damon Gupton joins the cast of “Criminal Minds” tonight, taking the place of fired actor Thomas Gibson. Gupton plays Stephen Walker, a seasoned profiler from the Behavioral Analysis Program of the FBI.
