RIP NELSAN ELLIS

I learned about Nelsan’s death yesterday while at work and I still can’t believe it. He portrayed one of my favorite characters ever on one of my favorite shows of all time. I remember seeing Lafayette for the first time when I was around 17. I’m 26 now and he is still someone I quote to this very day. Lafayette is a chill ass queer POC just like me, and Nelsan portrayed him in a such a relatable hilarious manner that he not only became a personal favorite, but a fan favorite as well. You can’t think about True Blood without remembering Lafayette.



I’m distraught and going to miss him so much. My thoughts are with his family, friends, and fans.
