So can we assume Christina is performing? I guess she's not exclusively tied to NBC as this is going to be on ABC.
Possible performers:
Christina Aguilera P!nk Rihanna Kelly Clarkson One Direction No Doubt Taylor Swift Ke$ha Alicia Keys Bruno Mars Carrie Underwood OneRepublic Cher Lloyd
That's a crazy line-up but the AMAs typically have a really decent group of artists, especially considering it's 4Q and everyone has stuff to promote. Last year had 17 acts.

Your list is good as most of those people have albums to promote.
Kelly Clarkson performed last year and is at the end of her album cycle, but I could see her performing if she intends to promote her Greatest Hits album.
Carrie Underwood is still in the early stages of her new album so I can see her performing to promote it, plus she has off from her tour that entire weekend.
Taylor Christina and Pink, Alicia Keys and No Doubt seem to be locks to perform as all have new albums out.
I would add Aerosmith to that list as their album comes out November 6, and they will be promoting. Also, since Carrie Underwood has a duet with them on their album, I can see them possibly debuting it at the AMAS.
There are not enough rock acts on that list so I would definitely include Aerosmith, possibly Mumford & Sons, Coldplay? etc.

Will RED be eligible for Country Album?
If BLOWN AWAY wins country album, Carrie will be the first country female to win 4 album awards.

[ Link] Considering the album comes out just a few weeks before the show, and a few weeks after the nominees are announced, I'm going to take a wild guess and say that no it will not be eligible.

^josh is correct. Taylor's album will be eligible for next year's show, and I'd be willing to prematurely bet its nomination, as well as its win.
"Blown Away" should hopefully get nominated. Carrie's already the only woman to win 3 Country album awards for all 3 of her released albums, so a fourth win would extend that record.

Aren't the nominees for this show determined by sales/airplay? If so, Carrie will surely be nominated

Well, it's almost a necessity for Rihanna to perform seeing how her album will be released the next day.

Carrie's already the only woman to win 3 Country album awards for all 3 of her released albums, so a fourth win would extend that record. If it's based purely on statistics, it certainly should. I think it's in the top 3-5 Country albums released within the eligibility period, no? She's the female with the top Country album eligible, in which case, she'll almost certainly be included. Also, Carrie's album has had the most weeks at #1 out of all the eligible albums (7 weeks), that has to help something...

So P!nk is already confirmed? Yay! Probably "Try." It sounds like Christina Aguilera is pretty much confirmed to perform as well. Probably "Your Body." I want Ke$ha (Die Young or single #2), Taylor Swift (Begin Again or pop single #2), Carly Rae Jepsen (This Kiss), and Imagine Dragons (It's Time or Radioactive) to perform as well.

They should really give rock its own category since the pop/rock category is completely dominated by pop artists.

I think someone in her album thread she was performing a medley, which makes a lot more sense than her performing two separate times. Unless she's attached to another tribute.

Are the AMAs fan voted? I can never remember.
I wonder if they're going to try to do something extra special since this is their 40th anniversary.

FAVORITE FEMALE ARTIST – SOUL/R&B
Beyoncé

With LOT dominating Urban, and D4Y doing well aswell, she better win this!! Although if it's fan voted I suspect the Navy to prevail over the disorganized hive.

So we basically already know who will win. I think the New Artist category is Viewer's Choice though, so Zayn Malik One Direction will win.

Imma need them to stop nominating Rihanna in the R&B categories and leave that space to some more real R&B artists.
