He was effortlessly humourous. Rest in peace 🕊️💔

[@maryluvsmusic9298]

Yes, I agree!! He was just adorable. Im heartbroken 💔 because this lil guy seemed so upbeat & hilarious 😂 . I really luv’d watching his videos during the pandemic. Leslie brought joy to my life during such a stressful & unbelievable time. R.I.P Leslie🕊🙏🏾🕊.

[@telikaandfam]

omg!! what!!

[@DamnDemi]

What?! Nooooooooo 😭

[@DavidBryant]

What deluded world dk you live in? Homosexuals aren't resting in peace. They're paying the price for the immoral and deviant lifestyle they chose to live.

[@MsWDWFAN1]

This is so heartbreaking to watch. I feel so sorry for Leslie's sister Cricket. To lose her mother, sister & brother all in the same year is unfathomable. I pray she doesn't pass from a broken heart. The loss of Leslie hurts. I literally screamed and bawled when they announced his passing. There will never be another like him. He's so loved and will be missed! He was a one of a kind. There will never be another Leslie Allen Jordan. I still can't believe he's gone! He was singing his gospel song the day before about going to heaven not knowing God was going to call him home the next day. RIP Leslie Allen Jordan. You're reportin for duty is done. Us hunker downers will keep your legacy alive. 🙏😔💔💔🌈🏳️‍🌈🕊️

[@jessicabw]

I love the story about his dad in the 1950s buying his son a doll. That is pretty impressive.

[@angelaholmes8888]

Yes it is

[@hurst-cs2jh]

Hello Jessica, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?😊

[@DavidBryant]

Pretty impressive? How immoral and Godless are you? And you wonder why you’re the most disrespected and lawless woman in the world.

[@JM-zk9ou]

I do, too. He was so loved.

[@brooklynbabe7896]

Absolutely impressive indeed my dear sister and buddy rest in peace Leslie Jordan you were a lot of fun it's a shame that you left the world too soon but hunny you will forever be a great asset to your shows first Will and Grace and now Call Me Kat rest in peace 🕊️ my dear friend and brother 💕✡️🕎🎆🎇🇭🇲🇸🇭💐🇮🇪🇺🇸🇮🇱🇬🇧🇦🇩😽🐕🕊️🇯🇲🇮🇪🇦🇩🇨🇦 🙏🌹😿🙀🙀😿😾💔😮‍💨 you will be forever ♾️ missed

The only thing that brings me solace regarding his passing is knowing these last couple of years he felt how loved he was by the general public. ❤

[@JenniferBrigitteOpticalVortex]

We adored him!!!

[@rayrock90]

This one hurts 😔 he was such an amazing human! Will forever love this man! Rest easy Leslie Jordan 🕊️

[@TikTokForest]

I miss him so much. He really helped so many of us through this pandemic. 🥲❤️

[@josephharris2410]

I could listen to his stories all day!

[@ebonydollady]

This is so sad. I just recently saw this show and he spoke of his sister and mother passing earlier this year. He had the most charming personality with a whole lot of character. You will truly be missed. Rest in peace Leslie 🙏🏾

[@ThatsJustMyBabyDaddy]

It's a natural part of life and he lived his life to the fullest. Nothing to be sad about. ❤️

[@salyol7]

Two deaths in his family same year that is hard.This man was like Betty White so caring,kind and funny.He will be missed very much.He was genuine not a snob as a famous person .

[@sandra-jones]

@@ThatsJustMyBabyDaddy that's your opinion. For others there is something to be sad about. This person lost their life suddenly and tragically. There are a lot of people sad about this and for good reason.

[@rheadejaneiro1404]

R.I.P icon 😢💜

[@greenvortex7]

oh wow....I had not heard....such amazing work. "Sordid Lives" is one of my all time favorite movies

Sending love to Cricket who lost her twin, her mom and now her brother. May she find peace during this stressful time.

[@Toyaannette]

It rare that I shed a tear over a celebrity's death but Leslie was more than to me and so many people. He will truly be missed. He was such gift and a light to this world.

[@kirstenveneziano1205]

I agree, teared up watching this video. The world lost a special person. 💔

[@marioc63]

Same. But I've actually cried about this loss. Like my mama said the other day, we lost an angel.

[@katiemaige4275]

Amen 🙏🏼

[@jessshrop4607]

I cried too I was in complete shock he was truly a gem 💎 😢

[@timbragg4546]

He did not present himself as a celebrity and he was happy in everything he did, he seemed liked a regular nice guy, his sarcasm in his roles was unmatchable.

[@knl5330]

I started crying when they sang This Little Light of Mine at the end....Leslie was one of a kind and will truly be missed 💔

[@raykeltolson4515]

Me too

[@KijijiSanaa]

When he sang you could suddenly see all of the grief in his eyes. Rest in Peace Leslie. You are loved.

[@golden.333]

I love that Jennifer kept telling him how much she loved him.

[@jaden_0315]

Rest in peace 🕊💔 He will be missed! He always had me crying laughing

I hope his sister Cricket has support during this difficult time I’m sure she’s having now that she’s all alone. Sending prayers her way! 🤍🤍🤍

Damn. His younger sister Jana Lynn is the only one left in the immediate Jordan family. Her twin sister, mother and brother all died within the same year. RIP

[@g30rg3gp0rg]

Such a sweet, funny, talented man. Just a beautiful, positive light. Gosh he'll be sorely missed.... what a good interview. I'm glad she shared the extended version with all who loved him. This interview had all the feels & the ending had me balling my eyes out.

[@g30rg3gp0rg]

@@mandycote5662 Nah, I will NOT judge that gentleman & any decisions about his life that he'd made as I'm not sinless. All I know is he seemed to bring joy & laughter to all he encountered. I was always left with smile or laughter after seeing him in pretty much anything.

[@CBD7069..]

So shocked to hear of his passing. I’m sure he’s at peace and surrounded by his sister and mom who he loved so much. And making everyone laugh.

[@slimtee2]

Don’t forget about his dad ❤ 😊

[@TheRealEli717]

Heartbreaking. He just lost his mom and sister....maybe his heart was broken too! Rest in peace LJ!

I feel sorry for you that you have no compassion. Just disgusting 🙄🙄🙄🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[@lamak0925]

One of the best. Such honest humor. Even when tacking jabs at Karen on Will & Grace his sarcasm still had a sweet southern glaze on top. One of my favorites. I'll remember him with the same love as I remember Robin Williams.

Omg I had no idea he passed away I’m going to keep his legacy alive by remembering all the love and light he shared in everything he did. Thank you Leslie Jordan watch over us.

How heart breaking that he was just killed in a car accident. He was one of a kind. I was just bing watching KZbin clips of his best funny moments with Karen Walker when he was on Will and Grace. The ending with him singing with Jennifer just broke me RIP

[@daddygrace253]

Bless his heart; I was devastated when I heard of Leslie's death. I had recently watched one of his videos on KZbin. I loved him in the 'Cool Kid's, American Horror Story, Supernatural, and Will & Grace. He was such a funny man with a humorous heart. He uplifted my spirits during Covid and helped my depression by keeping me laughing. RIP, Leslie aka Sid on the 'Cool Kids'.
