JULIANNE HOUGH pulls the old switcheroo and now RYAN SEACREST is ready to REALLY get hitched!

After steady beau Ryan Seacrest faked her out with a non-proposal on “American Idol,” the former “Dancing with the Stars” pro got even by talking about steam­ing up the set of “Rock of Ages” with co-star Tom Cruise.

Her scheme to get Ryan jealous did the trick, and he’s set to propose for real!

“Ryan was sitting on the fence about when to pop the question – until Julianne started talking about her sexy scenes with Tom,” a longtime pal of the Hollywood dynamo told The ENQUIRER.

“Ryan wants to settle down there and start a family with Julianne,” said the source. “And she pushed him into it by making him insanely jeal­ous!”

But that was only after Ryan fooled her big-time. Julianne, 23, was on “Idol” promoting “Rock of Ages” in early May when Ryan announced that he had something to ask her. He reached inside his jacket pocket, but instead of producing a ring, he pulled out an envelope!

“Will you give this note I wrote to Tom Cruise?” he asked a stunned Julianne. “Such a big fan! I loved him in ‘Cocktail.’”

The source said: “Julianne really thought Ryan was going to propose. After his practical joke, she told a pal, ‘Two can play at that little game!’”

So in recent interviews, she began gushing about working with Tom, who plays sexy rock god Stacee Jaxx in the film.

“I have to say, [I] think he’s way more hot now,” she said, revealing that one of their scenes was so steamy it got cut from the film.

“It was in the strip club, and I gave Tom a lap dance,” she said.

The source pointed out: “That was all Ryan had to hear! After that, he declared that he was going to make Julianne his bride. They’ll be hitched by Christmas.”
