My boyfriend is convinced that Boy George was in Ashes to Ashes video because apparently a documentary he saw said it to be true. I said that they didn't do their research properly because the only real name in the video other than Bowie was Steve Strange. But he just won't believe me. Am I wrong?

George was a massive Bowie fan as evidenced here but he wasn't in the video.

The confusion is probably because a character playing Boy George recently popped up in the Ashes to Ashes BBC series (as a cloakroom attendant at The Blitz nightclub - the position & place he worked in 1981). In that same episode, Steve Strange makes an appearance and sings 'Fade to Grey'.

ADAM VS BOWIE MASH UP PROJECT - | - BOWIE DOWNUNDER

No this argument we've been having has been going on way before the Ashes To Ashes tv program....but thanks for confirming he wasn't in it. :)

If I remember correctly, both Boy George and Steve Strange auditioned for a part in the Ashes to Ashes vid but only Strange got in. So it wouldn't be very difficult for someone to get their wires crossed in this.
