When we last saw David Bowie, 37, the neon rocker had cleaned up his glitter-king image in order to bask in "the serious moonlight." But Bowie has more disguises than a chameleon, and in his new 20-minute video for the song Blue Jean, from his soon-to-be-released album Tonight, Bowie assumes two roles. Sometimes he is Lord Byron, sometimes he is a sign painter named Vic, vainly trying to convince his girlfriend that he and the randy aristocrat are buddies.

...across the English Channel, an armada of shadows, only their lavender wing lights clearly visible in the thin moonlight. They took more than three hours to cross the Channel, then they dropped to 700 ft. to make their landing run. Suddenly they plunged into the turbulence of a thick bank of clouds.

One of the black swans lifts its head and makes a long, low sound.' Jackson imitates the sound and laughs: "It's like a little dog barking...
Matthew himself seems equally unconvinced that he is actually having an affair with the 15 year old daughter of his best friend. "Last night never happened," he tells Jennifer the night after their moonlight encounter on the beach. "I know," Jennifer says, smiling smugly, "I was there." These vacuous lines do nothing to enforce the believability of the relationship...
