A verb used to describe a situation when a homosexual male, who also happens to be "in the closet", begins going out with a girl in order to attempt to prove that he is not a homosexual. Usually, when a man is Tom Cruising, everyone already knows that he's gay, except for him.

The origin of the term comes from Tom Cruise, who was criticized about his sexuality and soon afterward married Katie Holmes. Many people still believed he was homosexual though, and the phrase was born.
