2018 Tony Nominations: See The Full List

The 2018 Tony Awards nominations were released on Tuesday morning (May 1), with Mean Girls and SpongeBob SquarePants receiving a whopping 12 nominations each.

Tony winner Lesli Odom Jr. from Hamilton and Katherine McPhee, who is starring in Waitress, made the big announcement, detailing the nods in each of the categories. It proved to be a mini-reunion of sorts as the pair used to star in NBC's Smash together. Several Hollywood titans earned nominations for their off-screen work, including the likes of Amy Schumer, Denzel Washington, Andrew Garfield, Nathan Lane and Michael Cera. Bruce Springsteen also received a special Tony Award for his Broadway debut, Springsteen on Broadway.

For this year's ceremony, both Sara Bareilles and Josh Groban will team up for hosting duties for the broadcast, which airs live from Radio City Music Hall on June 10 on CBS.
