Dolly Parton Paid Tribute To Leslie Jordan

Country music star Dolly Parton paid a surprise tribute to Leslie Jordan on Thursday’s episode of “Call Me Kat.”

In October last year, the world lost Leslie Jordan to a car crash. Leslie earned praise for incredible talent in the series “Will & Grace,” “Call Me Kat,” and “American Horror Story.” Production of Mayim Bialik’s sitcom, “Call Me Kat,” was paused following his death to take time to grieve.

He played Phil, the head baker at Kat’s café. Country star Dolly Parton made a surprise appearance on a show’s new episode last Thursday in which she made a heartfelt tribute to the late Jordan. Parton sang a verse from their song “Where the Soul Never Dies,” featured on Jordan’s 2021 album “Company’s Comin’.”

She directed her eulogy to the late star “I know usually at a memorial, people talk about somebody. Well, I’m going to talk to you. Because there is that place on the other side, and I’m certainly going to see you there, little brother. You left a lot of people here with a lot of precious, precious memories. Everybody loved you, but I doubt many of them loved you more than I did.”

“I just want you to know that we all love you, we all miss you, and I bet you’re having a big laugh over all of us being sad and sorrowful. And I know that would be the last thing you would want us to be. You made us happy while you were here, and we’re happy that you’re at peace. I just want you to know that I will always love you. Goodbye, my sweet Leslie.”
