BFFs Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Schumer are going for the gold — in the same category for the 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards! On Thursday morning, Moët & Chandon raised a toast to the nominees at the Beverly Hilton hotel where America Ferrera, Chloe Grace Moretz, Dennis Quaid, and Angela Bassett announced the biggest films and names in Hollywood this year, pinning the Joy and Trainwreck actresses against each other.

Jennifer has previously praised her friend saying, “The best thing that happened this year was when my friend Amy and I got so drunk that we ended up on the top of Billy Joel’s piano." Fans are no doubt looking forward to the photo opps between the two girlfriends, who've both had high-profile red carpet tumbles: Amy famously pulled a prank on Kim Kardashian and Kanye West at April's Time 100 gala, and Jen made headlines when she fell down in a pink Dior gown at the 2013 Academy Awards.

This year's Golden Globe nomination is Amy's first. Upon learning the news, the Trainwreck actress called the honor "a dream" in the caption of a hilarious throwback photo on Instagram. In the snap, she's pictured during her childhood years posing with a glass globe, "predicting this moment."

Also scoring her first nomination this year is singer Lady Gaga for her role in FX’s American Horror Story: Hotel, while leading this year's pack with five nods is the drama film Carol. The movie's two leading ladies, Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara, both earned best actress nominations, while the movie itself earned a best motion picture nod.

Comedian Ricky Gervais will return as the award show's host for the fourth time when the 2016 Golden Globes air January 10 at 8 p.m. EST on NBC.
