Heartbreaking clip for 'I'm are not the only one' stars Chris Messina and Dianna Agron as husband and wife.
Sam Smith's gospel-tinged "I'm Not the Only One" finds the breakout soul singer exploring the fallout of an extramarital affair. In his new video for the track, Smith shows exactly how painful and destructive that fallout can be, with Dianna Agron (Glee) cast as a heartbroken wife and Chris Messina (Argo, The Mindy Project) as a cheating husband.

"You and me, we made a vow / For better or for worse," Smith sings over a simple piano progression, occasionally looking deep into the camera. "I can't believe you let me down / But the proof's in a way it hurts." Agron shows exactly how much the affair hurts: After some drunken bawling, she sneaks out to catch her husband in the act and burns his clothes in their front yard. Directed by Luke Monaghan, the video ends with Messina's character returning home and greeting his wife with a sensual kiss, showing the cyclical nature of his infidelity.
It's heavy, emotive stuff – but that's the overall vibe of Smith's acclaimed debut LP, In the Lonely Hour. Back in May, the singer told Fader that the album was inspired by "unrequited love."
"It's about a guy and that's what I wanted people to know – I want to be clear that that's what it's about," he told the publication. "I want to make it a normality because this is a non-issue. People wouldn't ask a straight person these questions. I've tried to be clever with this album, because it's also important to me that my music reaches everybody. I've made my music so that it could be about anything and everybody – whether it's a guy, a female or a goat – and everybody can relate to that."

Naya Rivera Has NOT Been Fired from 'Glee,' Fox Confirms
Despite reports, Naya Rivera is not leaving Glee, it has been confirmed.
“There is no truth to the rumor Naya has been fired from the show,” Fox said in a statement to The Associated Press. “She remains under contract to Glee.”
The network’s statement follows a similar one her rep released, shooting down the rumors that claimed Naya was let go after an alleged on-set altercation with her co-star Lea Michele.
While she hasn’t been fired from the show, E! News confirmed that Naya was written out of the season five finale airing on May 13.
“[Naya] isn’t fired and her not being in the finale has nothing to do with Lea,” a source told the site. “I don’t know where these stories are coming from, but they are not true.”
There were also recent reports that Nayahad been dropped by Columbia Records, which her rep has also denied.
ARE YOU EXCITED to hear that Naya Rivera is staying on Glee?
