"The day everybody in the world sees the freaking show, I was here," Patino told the Post. She said nurses and other hospital staff were stunned to see her there.
"(He's) the most important thing to me," Patino said of her father, who is recovering from a broken shoulder, leg and ribs.
Patino won the favor of the judges by describing her workout routine to the theme song from "Rocky," then belting out a rendition of Mary J. Blige's "Love Without a Limit," the Post reported.
