Isaac Hayes

In incredibly sad news legendary soul singer, songwriter, Grammy and academy award winner musician, Isaac Hayes has died.

 

 

Hayes’ wife found him on the floor near a running treadmill inside his home, according to Memphis’ Shelby County Sheriff’s department. Hayes was taken to Baptist East Hospital in Memphis, where he was pronounced dead at 2:08 p.m.  Officials will continue their investigation into Hayes’ death, but they believe no foul play was involved.  He was 65 years old

  He was the perfect embodiment of cool-testpattern

While many know Mr.Hayes as the voice of Chef on “South Park”…Most know him as the pioneer who laid the groundwork for disco, southern soul and of course with his smooth talk singing, he was rapping before there was rap or hip hop. R.I.P Mr. Hayes

Ashlee and Pete Wentz confirm they are expecing their first child

May 29th, 2008 by Karis Michelle | No Comments | Filed in Celebrity Gossip, News

The newly married couple has confirmed on Pete Wentz’s website, that they are expecting their first child. So, I guess it’s official, that Alice and Wonderland charade was nothing more than a shot gun wedding, perhaps a PR move by papa Joe. Here’s a quote from Pete’s website.

“While many have speculated about this, we wanted to wait until after the first trimester to officially confirm that we are expecting our first child. This is truly the most joyous time in our lives and we are excited to share the happy news and start our family.”

Ashlee Simpson is also changing her name to Ashlee Wentz. Professionally she will use the name Ashlee Simpson-Wentz. She had this to say on the subject:

“I think that that’s something that a woman should do when they’re marrying a man,” Simpson said. “It’s a tradition that I think is a great tradition.”

I get the sentiment, and can totally digg that she wants to change her name legally, but Ashlee Simpson-Wentz just doesn’t quite roll of the tongue. I give her 6 months to get out of marital blitz and drop the Wentz “professionally”.
