Alex Van Halen called former bandmate Sammy Hagar "a complete idiot" in a Brazilian magazine interview, and Hagar responded on Instagram by asking for peace, the latest chapter in a feud now spanning more than two decades.

"In my opinion, Sammy Hagar is a complete idiot." Hagar, 78, did not match the hostility. In a post shared by the Rock Celebrities account on Instagram, the…Open
