I am stunned at the death of Leslie Jordan, who delighted us with his many roles on television and film. The cause of death was a car crash after he suffered a medical emergency. Leslie, we are heartbroken at your loss and will miss your mirth and your inimitable spirit.

"Heartbroken about this – a deeply funny man," a Twitter user lamented. "I think it took a while, longer than it should have, for the world to discover his talents – but they did. From Will and Grace to so much more – including a fantastic one-man-show. Leslie Jordan was a delight. Gone far too soon."

My daughter went to Pride this year in Nashville and came home so excited because Leslie Jordan had been the grand marshal. A 67 year old man and it was as if a shimmering god of merriment had descended to grant a fleeting audience. Which was, basically, true. RIP. What a spirit. https://t.co/yMCkXlPsdi
