Simon Cowell may have openly argued with Paula Abdul on the set of “American Idol” for eight seasons, but on his first day at the judges’ table without her, he was feeling her absence.

American Idol champs Kris Allen and David Cook, along with this season’s runner-up, Adam Lambert , teamed up to perform their biggest hits live for adoring fans in NYC on Friday as part of Good Morning America’s Summer Concert Series.
