Fox Releases a Sweet Video Tribute to Leslie Jordan

Following the Thursday, October 27 episode of CALL ME KAT, Fox revealed a new tribute to star Leslie Jordan. (Jordan tragically died on Monday, October 24 in a car crash.)

In the video clips of Jordan on THE MASKED SINGER, CALL ME KAT, FANTASY ISLAND, THE COOL KIDS, and LEGO MASTERS play, as the end tag notes he’s “forever a part of the Fox family.”

“We are shocked and devastated by today’s tragic passing of Leslie Jordan,” Fox Entertainment said in a statement on Monday. “Leslie was far more than an Emmy Award winning comedic talent with whom we’ve laughed alongside for all these years. He was the kindest person you could ever imagine who simply lit up a room and brought pure joy and huge smiles to millions of people around the world. The truest of Southern Gentlemen, Leslie carried an infectious exuberance, indelible sense of humor and, throughout, gifted us with countless fond memories that will last forever. As we grieve this sad news, we also wish to extend our most profound sympathies to Leslie’s family, friends and fans, whom he held so dear.”
