Hollywood and the world are in mourning after the news of beloved actor Leslie Jordan’s passing went viral on Monday. As fans on social media remember some of the actor’s greatest moments, many are bringing up Jordan’s hilarious viral video in which he reacted to Cardi B and Meg Thee Stallion’s “WAP.”
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. Playfully adding 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 shared on Jordan’s widely loved Instagram.
“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.”
Shaul adds that the beacon of light in Jordan’s passing is that he “left the world at the height of both his professional and personal life.” Shaul said that is the only thing that can give the world solace during a time like this.
