Remember when Eddie Van Halen was one of the coolest guys alive? Barely? Well, then, take our word for it, he used to be the coolest. However, in the years since he kicked Sammy Hagar out of his band in favor of Gary Cherone (!), he's been steadily draining his ever-dwindling coolness reserve. The latest affront? He'll be guest-starring on Two and a Half Men this fall. [TV Squad]
