Leslie Jones has a few things in common with Dan Aykroyd as she is a Saturday Night Live alum and a Ghostbuster . Some folks are not okay with that as she’s now trolled by folks on social media for her performance in the Ghostbusters film and the things that folks are saying are downright brutal. Dan, steward of the Ghostbusters franchise, is standing up for Leslie and has decided to put those trolls in their place on national television now less! Dan was recently on ET Canada and when the questions was asked about the trolling that Leslie has received he outright called them “Losers” who “Probably can’t pay for the WiFi they’re using” but it gets better from there, check it out:

I had no idea Dan had that in him and I am overwhelmingly impressed and proud that he’s standing up for Leslie. I won’t share the actual tweets that she’s received as I don’t want to provide those guys any free promotion. Instead let’s take a look at that fact that Aykroyd is showing further support of Leslie in future projects. Check out a recent FB post:
Ghostbusters solid, proven hit. Have started writing Soul Sisters lists the magnificent Leslie Jones as one of three leads.
