Patti LaBelle Talks Role on AMERICAN HORROR STORY: FREAK SHOW; Hints at Return

In an all-new interview with ETonline, Patti LaBelle talks about her recent appearance on FX's AMERICAN HORROR STORY: FREAK SHOW, in which she starred as Dora, the gutsy maid.

WARNING: Spoilers ahead

Although her character was knifed by Gloria Mott's son Dandy during last week's episode, the singer says it may not be the last time viewers will see her. "With this particular show, you never know. I might become a ghost, or something that comes back and scares Dandy's little ass. He's a hot mess! But now my daughter, [played by] Gabourey Sidibe, is looking for me, so when she looks for Dora, you know Dora might have to do something, and I might just have to show back up."

Asked about watching herself in the episode, LaBelle is critical of her performance. "I said, "Dang, girl, why didn't you close your eyes?" I died with my eyes open because that's what they wanted. Lying on the floor, dead, with blood coming out of my neck - it wasn't easy seeing myself like that, but it sure was interesting."

She adds that filming the actual scene was quite disgusting. "After it was done, I had to take five showers to get all that blood off my body."

ABOUT AMERICAN HORROR STORY: FREAK SHOW
