| Isaac Hayes | | * Stars pay tribute to Isaac Hayes*
Stars including Dionne Warwick and Gloria Gaynor pay tribute to soul legend Isaac Hayes, who has died at the age of 65. | |
| | Isaac Hayes | | I'm saying to myself right about now that we have to stop meeting like this. Coming so closely on the heels of the death of Bernie Mac, comedian and actor, you can imagine how shocked I was when my daughter informed me of the death of soul singer Isaac Hayes yesterday.[em]sad[/em] Isaac Hayes made so many inroads in the music business that he was inducted into the Hall of Fame, among other honors. He was a gifted songwriter as well as singer and even ventured into acting. He rose to fame during a time when I was young enough to really appreciate his music. Although he is probably most famous for his song "Theme From Shaft," from the '70s movie of the same name, my two personal favorites are "I Stand Accused" and "By the Time I Get to Phoenix." It goes without saying that the world has lost a great talent in Isaac Hayes. I grieve with his family and friends. | |

Another Legend Has Died........
The only song I remember was Shaft....I however remeber his look and felt he was a man of free will. He dress relaxed and not over powering for his business and that will always stand out in my mind. | |
| | Isaac Hayes | | It's not so much an every-day thing, but a really sad thing. Isaac Hayes died today. This man was incredibly creative, and telented in so many ways. He had to intestinal fortitued to perform in chains when he was making hit recordings (Shaft, et. al.) He appeared on talk shows and talked about issues, not just something he was trying to advertize. His writing jumped of the page and burrowed into the souls of the readers.Even as the cook on South Park, Isaac Hayes was a magnificent man.May he rest in peace, supported by the love and respect of everyone who experienced his work.[em]cry[/em] | |

JacksonI Know who I would vote for, but in this case my opinion does not matter!! | |

Let's not let race or religion stop of from doing the only thing we can, and that is pray for they souls and families. | |
| | It's Been A Very Sad Week In The World Of Entertainment | | I don't know how to start this discussion because I am very
sad about the loss of 2 of may favorite Entertainers, both
having passed away suddenly this week. One is Bernie Mac,
an unbelievably brilliant comedian whose comedy genius
I have enjoyed for years. I have followed his career from
the very beginning and watched just about every episode
of "The Bernie Mac Show" And then today to turn on the
computer and to find yet another of my favorite Entertainers,
Isaac Hayes- (yes he played John Shaft) a brilliant performer,
both singer and actor has also passed away. Both these men
left us suddenly this week and I know they will be greatly
missed. | |

| Did Bernie Mac die? He's only 50!! | | I am watching the news, and have learned that Bernie Mac has died from a battle of pneumonia! I can't believe it! He is one of my favorite actors and comedians! I liked him on the movie "Friday." Why do all the greats die so young? | |
