• Hollywood's award season kicked off in New York last night with the Gotham Awards, which gave Best Film and two other awards to the coming-of-age drama "Moonlight." Isabelle Huppert ("Elle") and Casey Affleck ("Manchester by the Sea") won the top acting awards. [Los Angeles Times, Variety]

• The Grammy Hall of Fame has added 25 recordings — including David Bowie's "Changes," Prince's "Sign 'O' the Times" album, N.W.A's "Straight Outta Compton," Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion." [Billboard]

• The musical "Hamilton" set a Broadway record, taking in $3.3 million in a single week. This happened after President-elect Donald Trump kicked up a Twitter fight against the show and conservatives declared a boycott, because the audience booed and the cast issued a respectful statement to Vice President-elect Mike Pence.
