It wasn’t the first time that David Cook had been back to L.A.’s Nokia Theatre since he won season 7 of American Idol there last spring. But performing at the American Music Awards pre-show on Sunday still brought out the jitters. “I actually get panic attacks whenever I’m in a five-mile radius of this place,” he told EW.com following his two-song set in the courtyard, a stone’s throw away from the Idol finale showdown stage. “It’s home to one of the most nerve-wracking moments in my life.” In the months since, Cook has performed at the Staples Center across the street, as part of the Idol summer tour, but Sunday’s visit for the AMAs stirred up memories nonetheless. “I’m presenting, so I do have to walk on that stage. We’ll see how it goes. If I have a freak-out or something, it’ll make for good TV, I suppose.”

In fact, for Cook and his fellow Idol finalist, David Archuleta, the competition continues, in a way. EW.com also bumped into the season 7 runner-up, getting his take on their current close race in record stores. (Archuleta’s first week tally of 183,000 is already in and sales numbers for Cook’s debut are due out on Wednesday.) Archuleta, for one, said he’s content with his album’s performance. “I’m quite comfortable with second place,” he quipped. “Right behind Taylor Swift is not a bad place to be.”

For the first time in its 36-year history, the American Music Awards (airing Nov. 23 on ABC) will televise an hour-long preshow that includes a live, two-song performance by American Idol winner David Cook along with extensive red-carpet interviews delivered by a motley crew, among them Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger (who’ll serve as music correspondent), Project Runway’s Christian Siriano (handling fashion coverage), Dancing With the Stars judge Carrie Ann Inaba, and The Bachelor host Chris Harrison.

From arrivals to the stage, divas will rule the ceremony, which is being held at Los Angeles’ Nokia Theater (where, coincidentally, Cook delivered his winning Idol performance) and not the Shrine Auditorium, as in years past. On the bill are megastars like Mariah Carey, Beyoncé Knowles, Rihanna, Christina Aguilera, and Pink. But one big-name female artist with a new album to promote is noticeably absent from the lineup: Britney Spears will instead give a birthday performance on ABC’s Good Morning America Dec. 2, the day her album Circus is released. Meanwhile, Miley Cyrus will celebrate her sweet 16 on stage at the AMAs.
