Singer Patti LaBelle is the latest to be tapped for a role in the upcoming season of FX’s ‘American Horror Story: Freakshow’. Sadly she won’t be busting out any tunes in the fourth series but instead will get a four-episode arc playing the mother of actress Gabourey Sidibe’s character. She’ll also be involved on trying to “unravel the murderous secrets of Twisty the clown killer.” Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Angela Bassett, Frances Conroy, Kathy Bates, Emma Roberts and Denis O’Hare all return with series newcomers Michael Chiklis, Wes Bentley and John Carroll Lynch all set for roles.
‘American Horror Story: Freak Show’ takes place in 1952 in Jupiter, Florida, and revolves around the last freak show in America. The show will premiere on FX this coming October.
