Notes:

Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam absolutely 100% were added as the first opener of this show's bill. I know, because I attended the show AND reviewed the show for a local newspaper. I still have the clipping.

Here's some additional confirmation:

"Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam and Squeeze opened up. LLCJ were basically booed off the stage, and Squeeze was well received."

"Triple bill : David Bowie - Squeeze - Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam circa 1987 at Giants Stadium. Lisa Lisa got booed off after 3 songs (tough crowd, eh? - or just misguided booking?). Squeeze did play a COMPLETE 1.5 hour set opening for Bowie, to tremendous ovation. I guess the Bowie crowd did have SOME patience."

"Great tour… oddly, Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam where a warm up band on the NY/ NJ leg…Then Squeeze played (which made more sense) then Bowie."

I was on the field near the stage that day and Lisa Lisa And The Cult Jam weren’t just booed off the stage but also had food thrown at them. Despite that they played their current hit Head To Toe before they gave the crowd the middle finger and walked off the stage.
