More sad news to report.
Isaac Hayes has passed away.
The legendary musician died early Sunday morning at his home in Memphis, Tennessee.
His wife found him on the floor near a treadmill inside his home. He was was taken to Baptist East Hospital in Memphis, where he was pronounced dead at 2:08 a.m.
Many might known Isaac from his music. Younger readers might know him best as the voice of "Chef" on South Park, a role he left because it conflicted with his Scientology beliefs.
Hayes was 65.

GEEZ……..THIS SITE SUCKS ANYMORE!!!
Tina Turner-remember His wife perez? why not mention Her?
Re: ronny – Yea I am looking for it also…I don't see it anywhere. I wonder where Perez got this from.
how about a news source? i don't see this online anywhere.
Wow, speaking of Scientology! Poor Chef! RIP!
That's so sad, and SO unexpected. Was it a heart attack?
Sad.
R.I.P.
sad!sad day for music!
so sad! not many sites reporting it just yet. he has a movie with bernie mac coming out in november. how strange them both passing within a day of each other. wonder if it was another stroke. i read he's had a few of those….they will definitely both be missed. such great talent.
SO SAD TO HEAR MY PRAYER WITH THE FAMILY =( REST IN PEACE ISSAC
I live in Memphis and this is scrolling at the bottom of local channels. It was been confirmed by Memphis Police Dept.
JANE DONE: he is not and has never been married to Tina Turner. That would be Ike TUrner.
RIP
[[[[[[[[[ real sorry 2/hear thiz ]]]]]]]]]]
zzzzzzz he waz a great singer zzzzzzzzzz
[[[[[[[[[ everyonez dying..]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]
RIP chef! You will be missed……
I thought Scientologist can't get sick…..I guess they were wrong
Re: luvme – Re: SELENA4EVA – TMZ reported it at 3:30….15 mins. before perez.
Just read on Stern Fan Network and confirmed on TMZ- Perez is right on it!
It was a breaking news alert on the local Memphis NBC station about an hour ago. It's up on CNN now. Just because Perez has it first, doesn't mean it's not true.
So sad. Memphis, the country, and the world have lost a great one.
Re: Jane Doe – Tina Turner was never married to Issac Hayes. I think you are mixing him up with Ike Turner
RE: "Younger readers might know him best as the voice of "Chef" on South Park."
Mario, you really are a retard. If Isaac lent his voice to a cartoon, how are readers going to be the ones to make the association between Chef and Isaac? What you should've written is viewers. You're an idiot.
Re: Kaystar87 – LMFAO!!!!!!
Re: Andy27 –
Dude, shut UP already!
Wtf, no!
First Bernie Mac
and now Chef!
RIPPPPP
yay!! first time to bee first!!!! =D
He's not dead until he craps his pants.
I didn't know Scientologists died.
Now he can hop on one of those DC-8s and go meet L. Ron and Xenu?
.
Boy, Tom Cruise will be jealous.
So sad
I wonder who's next? They come in threes right?
Very sad
Re: YepIsaidit – OMG I'm sorry!!!
Thanks for correcting Me!!!
Holy!! If you got to the Issaac Hayes website (www.isaachayes.com) there is a poster of Soul Men! A poster of BERNIE MAC, ISSAAC HAYES and SAMUEL L. JACKSON. Bernie Mac dies yesterday, Issaac Hayes today…if I were Samuel L. Jackson, I would be hiding somewhere safe for the next month!
Too scary
Miss Dee
for every1 who doesnt recongnize him he was the chef in south park
Re: luvme –
…..I didn't assume cause from correlation.
I was simply commenting on the fact that role model material, well-known african american men seem to "dying off"
any other questions???
Re: Miss Dee – Good point!!!
:/ I wasn't expecting this one…
omg! RIP Isaac
Can I suck on his chocolate salty balls one last time?
Andy27- Before running about and pissing yourself over your purported eureka moment and pseudo-genius… He meant younger READERS of HIS BLOG.
Re: Jane Doe – Tina Turner was married to IKE TURNER, not Issac Hayes. I know black men look alike to alot of your folks, but seriously, get your facts straight, people.
Re: Andy27 –
'Readers' of Perez. moron.
One more person is next…Death comes in three's
Re: Andy27 –
readers of PEREZHILTON.COM
not readers of south park.
Re: Miss Dee – No shit! Leadgers passing did great for the box office. This should do the same. I put nothing past money people!
Not to mention Morgan Freeman almost bit the dust…
We got this far without anyone mentioning that he was the opening act at Woodstock. Yes he was.
RIP
I said this yesterday when I heard Bernie Mack passed away…..they always die in 3's! Now today, Issac H. passes away too?? Who's next?
RIP! he had said hot songs! Check em out on youtube, yo.
Re: stefystef – Fuck You! I already corrected myself Dummy!! Read the posts before You comment!
Re: Mikey Hunt – You're right…shame on us…He most certainly was…I remember it well…
Chef: You know what they say: You can't teach a gay dog straight tricks.
Chef: Don't do drugs kids. There is a time and place for everything. It's called college.
sad.
RIP Isaac.
Bernie Mac died yesterday and now Isaac Hayes. Okay so thats two people. Why is almost every poster acting like thousands of people just died. Over exaggerate much people?! Rest In Peace issac. you will be missed
Re: Perez Hilton – That too.
such sad new loved his work and he was so fuuny on south park RIP
Liked him, not his choice of religion tho!!!! Come on, scientologist… GADS !!!!
Re: Taylor – and when you die taylor we'll all say " good one less disrespectful and rude bitch on the planet" I dont like scientologists either but he was still a person with feelings you inconsiderate little fuck. And to Andy27 once again I can always count on you as perez's hater to come on here and say something rude. I cant say enough for someone who made a login name and comments on almost every post talkin shit on perez that its people like you excuse me haters like you that give perez the most viewed blog. Thank you for keeping this website alive andy
Aww, that's sad.
shit, I'd hate the last thing I ever did to be working out on a threadmill. poor guy.
He was a shameless hypocrite.
RIP.
$cientologists believe when you die you simply discard your old body and pick up another one. So cheer up! He's out there somewhere in a brand new body. However, this begs the question…should he become a $cientologist again, He's got to pay all that money to crawl back up the bridge? Doncha juss luv $cientology!!!!
Wow, first Bernie Mac and now Issac Hayes. Oh that is so sad. Rest in peace the both of them.
Re: Mal198407 – Uhhhhh…..George Carlin ring a bell???
