Just two weeks ago, Leslie Jordan sat for what would be his final TV interview with CBS News.
In the clip released Tuesday, the late Emmy winner appears charmed by his late-in-life social media fame and new venture as a country singer – while also appearing reflective of his early days and building a character actor career typecast for doing “that Leslie Jordan thing.”
“Sometimes I get tired of that,” Jordan said, reminiscing on the sassy, biting – and sure, “sissy” – roles and “persona” that kept him working in Hollywood since the mid-’80s.
