Yes - Gwen Stefani is the waitress - before she was famous! Martha Wainwright (Ru's sister) is Madama Butterfly - Rufus was pretty unknown when this song was relased and so family and friends were drafted in for the video shoot!

All the girls in the video are heroines from various operas - "Carmen", "Madame Butterfly" etc who all die tragically for love. Rufus is a huge opera fan and this song reflects his love of the genre.

Are they all killing themselves because he's gay? I love this video, too adorable. :D

how fitting that the video starts off with Wainwright in bed with multiple women.

"You mean he's not gay?!"
"Nope, he is, APRIL FOOLS!"

Lol XD.
