In the clip, he can be seen bobbing along to the beat quite contentedly... until the title lyrics kick in.
The Will & Grace star jolted forward with shock as his jaw quite literally dropped.
"Oh Lord, no no no," he said.
"I can't believe it. Well that is just shocking. Oh my God, 'There's some whores in this house, there's some whores...'
"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."
In the caption, he said he 'almost had a heart attack', adding that Cardi B 'can't be kissing me with that dirty mouth'.
The video was viewed more than 2.3 million times and was typical of the sort of uplifting content he shared with the world.
Jordan died while driving through Hollywood yesterday, when his vehicle crashed into the side of a building at Cahuenga Blvd. and Romaine St.
In a statement, his agent David Shaul said he was devastated by the loss of his friend.
"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.
"Knowing that he has left the world at the height of both his professional and personal life is the only solace one can have today."
Fans have also thanked him for keeping their spirits up during the bleakest of times.
One wrote: "You were the light we needed in a dark time. RIP Leslie Jordan."
Another said: "Such an iconic actor and naturally hilarious man. From his role as Beverly in Will & Grace, to his multiple AHS roles, and his perfect presence on social media that cheered a lot of us up through lockdown, he’ll be so so missed."
A third added: "He kept us laughing during those times and for that he will forever be a legend!!"
