Tanisha Harper has been cast as the new Jordan Ashford.

 

 

Im glad they are bringing her back

The character is a cipher and always has been. There's better Black characters to bring on.

Hmm....  She's 36.   Older than Briana Henry, but they should be casting a 40something actress for the role.   The rumored, and faux reported Karla Mosley (ex-B&B and Y&R) would've been better, or  someone like Yvonna Kopacz-Wright(ex-GL) who recurs on LAW & ORDER: SVU or Daphne Duplaix (ex-Rachel, OLTL).   By her looks she might be able to appear older.   https://daytimeconfidential.com/2022/02/24/tanisha-harper-cast-as-jordan-ashford-on-general-hospital

Wikipedia says she's 36. IMDB says she's 41.

Her IMDB shows her as a model with very little acting experience. She has mostly just played a character who is a model, or appeared as a one-time dayplayer.   

Seems like the only real acting role she's had is in a 3-month daily soap on MyTV in 2006 called "Desire" that they marketed as a US telenovela.

She seems too young to me, but I guess we will see when she's on screen.

 

 

I wouldn’t be against the idea, however let’s see how she is on screen first. 

And yeah I don’t like how they are constantly deSORASing the character 

I hope she is 41, would be better age-wise.  I am kinda worried about her not having many acting credits and being a model.   I want Cam Mathison's Drew with Britt, NOT Carly or Jordan.

She looks more like Jordan #1 than the other women.

i know black don't crack, but she looks the same age as the dude playing her son. 🤣

 

i *wish* they would try CM out with other women, but my gut tells me he's earmarked for Sam/Carly. Ugh. I wish they would test him with Ava. I hate Nicolas and that whole mehhh story they have her mixed up in, tbh. 

Lord she's not good so far. And tbh the character has never worked.

Is Demetria McKinney or Denise Boutte available?  Or are they still shillin' for Tyler Perry?

I thought it was just me. She is beautiful, but a dreadful actress. I don’t see how this is going to work. Jordan usually gets pretty good screen time due to her job and I can’t see this actress pulling it off.

I feel like this should be an easy role to cast if they go a little older. Looking at the three Jordan’s, it’s hard to understand what they’re going for with these recasts other than too young, beautiful and Black. I don’t think either recast fit the personality of the original character. 

This new actress shows no emotion at all.  She's not needed, so why recast?

The way the Jordan & Sonny scenes played today had me thinking wanted to have sex with Sonny
