Speaking about her experience on the show, Patti LaBelle said:
"I've learned from this experience that as high as my voice is, and as beautiful I think my voice is, there are voices more beautiful than mine and more extended, and more everything. I mean, you never know who you gonna be against. And I learned that there are so many powerful singers other than me."
Patti added that she was proud of herself, even though she lost to a dog, and tagged the show as being the most challenging thing she has ever done in her life.

On how the host, fans, and judges predicted her identity correctly, she said:
"Everybody knew me from the first day. Nick Cannon knows me so well, I am his ex-wife's fairy godmother, and his two little daughters, I am like their mama Patti. I think he could smell me because I wear such great perfume."
