Isaac Hayes "Chef" Quits South Park

Friday March 17, 2006
Isaac Hayes, the smooth voice behind Chef, has announced he's quitting South Park. In an interview with CNN, creator Matt Stone alleges that Hayes' couldn't take the jabs they threw at Scientology, of which Hayes is a follower. Stone is quoted as saying, "In ten years and over 150 episodes of 'South Park,' Isaac never had a problem with the show making fun of Christians, Muslim, Mormons or Jews." He continues to say, "He got a sudden case of religious sensitivity when it was his religion featured on the show." Ouch. Well, we haven't seen Chef in a long time. Perhaps this is why? Learn more about Isaac Hayes, as well as Matt Stone and Trey Parker.
