Leslie Jordan's Memoir Of Substance Abuse And Sex Addiction

Leslie Jordan's Memoir Of Substance Abuse And Sex Addiction

Four-foot-11 actor Leslie Jordan makes the tall claim that he's "the gayest man in the world." Whether or not that's true, he may be the lustiest.

In his dishy new memoir, "My Trip Down the Pink Carpet," the puckish veteran of such series as "Ally McBeal," "Boston Legal" and "Murphy Brown" unflinchingly describes his substance abuse and sex addiction. (One of the enduring mysteries of his life is waking up inside the gates of a lumberyard near West Hollywood's gay bars, unable to remember how he got there and why "I did not have on any underpants.")

But the funniest passages concern his seemingly endless crushes on his male (and mostly straight) co-stars.

"Dean Cain was stunning, and the sight of him strutting about in his Superman outfit was truly magnificent," Jordan gushes, recalling his cameo on "Lois and Clark." "I showed up on the set determined not to 'peter-gaze,' or at least not to get caught at it."
