...Hayes had one more career in him: as Chef, the grade-school cook who dished out mediocre food and ageless wisdom on the Comedy Central animated show South Park. The show's creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, conceived the role for Barry White, another soul basso whose music soothed where Hayes' prowled and pounced. But Hayes did splendid work (his lines usually taped by phone from New York) for the first nine seasons, in which Chef was virtually the only adult character treated with affectionate respect.

She is married to Konstantin Zaklinsky, one of the Kirov's leading male dancers and its handsomest. She likes to dance with him, cook for him, anything but rehearse with him. ''We are both very critical, and we tell each other the truth.'' Offstage, she shows little of the fire that ignites her performances, but perhaps she does not need to.
