Remembering Leslie Jordan And The Hilarious Moment He Heard 'WAP' For The First Time

In the hilarious video, Jordan is shown grooving to the racy tune, enjoying its beat quite thoroughly. That joy came to a screeching halt when Cardi B started her iconic opening verse.

“Oh Lord, no no no,” he said, his jaw literally dropping.

“I can’t believe it,” he adds. “Well, that is just shocking.”

Some time passes and he still can’t get over the song’s refrain.

“Oh my god, ‘There’s some whores in this house, there’s some whores…'” he said.

Though Jordan is gobsmacked by the hit song, he didn’t judge it or the female MCs.

“That’s just shocking. Oh, my Lord, I guess — well, I don’t judge. To each his own, I guess every garbage can has its lid,” he said.

He wrote in the caption that he “almost had a heart attack” when he heard the song for the first time. He playfully added that Cardi couldn’t be kissing him with “that dirty mouth.”

According to LADbible, the clip was viewed more than 2.3 million times, and it’s the perfect example of the joyous content Jordan shared on his social media in the last years of his life.

His agent, David Shaul, confirmed the actor’s death in a statement, The Washington Post reports.

“The world is definitely a much darker place today without the love and light of Leslie Jordan,” he wrote. “Not only was he a mega talent and joy to work with, but he provided an emotional sanctuary to the nation at one of its most difficult times. What he lacked in height he made up for in generosity and greatness as a son, brother, artist, comedian, partner, and human being.”

He added that Jordan “left the world at the height of both his professional and personal life,” which Shaul wrote “is the only solace one can have today.”
