\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tEx-Van Halen frontman Sammy Hagar revealed he hasn\u2019t spoken to former bandmate Alex Van Halen in 21 years amid a long-running feud. \u201cI think Al\u2019s angry because I\u2019m out doing it, and [bassist] Mike [Anthony] and I are out doing it, and he can\u2019t. He\u2019s not a singer. He\u2019s not a guitar player. He is [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
As for Burch\u2019s death, Downe claimed that the alleged incident was also \u201calcohol and prescription related\u201d but he prefers to keep the details private from the public. \u201cit\u2019s good to talk about it. It\u2019s good to talk about it with my friends, my close-knit friends.\u00a0I don\u2019t really wanna talk about it with strangers, \u2019cause it doesn\u2019t seem appropriate,\u201d he explained. \u201cIt is what it is.\u201d<\/p>\n

Faster Pussycat singer Taime Downe<\/strong>\u2018s fianc\u00e9e, Kimberly Burch<\/strong>, has reportedly died after falling overboard from a Royal Caribbean cruise ship near the Bahamas.<\/p>\nTMZ<\/a><\/em> reports that Burch fell to her death after being seen in a \u201cheated argument\u201d with Down, 60, on board The \u201880s Cruise, which set sail from Miami on Sunday, March 2, and was headed to the Bahamas.<\/p>\nAccording to the U.S. Coast Guard, the incident occurred 20 miles off the coast of Freeport. The Coast Guard reportedly provided a helicopter and personnel to the Royal Bahamas Defense Force in its rescue mission but the search was eventually suspended without finding a body.<\/p>\n
Kimberly\u2019s mother Carnell Burch told the website that Downe had personally called her to deliver the tragic news on Monday, March 3, but it\u2019s still unclear how Kimberly fell overboard.
