A screenwriter who worked with Tom Cruise in the erotic drama Eyes Wide Shut has labeled the Hollywood star an “egocentric control freak” among other things.Frederic Raphael, 91, made the claims about the actor in his new book, Last Post, in which he targeted the Mission: Impossible star’s career, links to Scientology, and his failed marriage to Aussie actress Nicole Kidman.Raphael fell out with the film’s director Stanley Kubrick in 1999, when he released his first memoir, Eyes Wide Open, where he was very critical of Kubrick’s directing style, which led to him being uninvited to the film’s premiere.Now in his new book, Raphael again slammed Kubrick and accused the Hollywood heavyweight’s wife Christiane Harlan and her brother Jan Harlan of spearheading the unflattering portrayal of him on Wikipedia.The author also roped Cruise into the drama by claiming the actor knew of the Wikipedia entry.“The Harlans and Master Cruise have managed to insert some derogatory stuff in my Wikipedia entry,” he writes, as obtained by the Daily Mail.Raphael’s claims appear to stem from the Wikipedia entry citing film critic Roger Ebert’s interview with Cruise in 1999, where he sided with Kubrick in the feud.“[Raphael] wouldn’t have written it if Stanley had been alive,” Cruise is quoted saying in the interview.“Opportunistic.

Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour wasn’t creating enough of a groundswell, Swifties caused such a ruckus during the Seattle, Washington leg that they generated the equivalent of a 2.3 magnitude earthquake — rivaling the legendary “Beastquake” of 2011.“This was much bigger,” Western Washington University geology professor Jackie Caplan-Auerbach told King 5 after comparing the tectonic activity.The groundbreaking phenomenon occurred over the weekend while the “Antihero” singer had performed sold-out back-to-back shows to over 144,000 fans at Lumen Field, the Seattle Times reported.Little did the Grammy winner know that her concert would prove earth-shattering in the seismic sense: The activity from the three-and-a-half-hour marathon caused quite a commotion on a seismometer located next to the stadium, which prompted Caplan-Auerback to conduct a study to see if it surpassed the previous Lumen record caused by the Beastquake. For those unfamiliar with Seattle sports lore, this seminal event occurred in 2011 after Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch scored a touchdown and fans went wild.To see how the two events compared tectonically, Caplan-Auerback first analyzed data from the two Swift shows.
