Razor Ramon Hard...Gay? | March 03, 2006 |
 Popular comedian Razor Ramon HG (30) finally has finally made the gossip weeklies. The HG stands for Hard Gay, but the other party in this "romance scandal" is busty pin-up girl Suzuki Anna (23), a former member of the "sexy group" Minisuka Porisu (Miniskirt Police). The two were spotted out on a date in Tokyo's Shinjuku district by photographers from the weekly magazine Friday. HG has had perhaps the biggest breakthrough in comedy over the last year with his studded black leather outfits, sunglasses, outrageous comments, posing and the catchphrase of "Fohhh!" The tall and well-built former wrestler, whose real name is Sumitani Masaki, formed comedy duo Razor Ramon with partner Debuchi Makoto (31) in 1997 and joined the Yoshimoto Kogyo agency. But it wasn't until the creation of the HG character that they began to become popular. Debuchi has tried to cash in with his RG (Real Gay) character, but has had limited exposure.
Director and scriptwriter Kuze Teruhiko died of a heart attack at his Tokyo home yesterday. He was 70. He was best known for the popular 1970s TBS TV dramas "Jikan Desu Yo" and "Terauchi Kantaro no Ikka".
• The hardest-working man in Japanese showbiz has taken on yet another job. With the new talk show "Mino Monta no Sashinomi" set to start in April, Mino (61) now has a whopping ten regular weekly shows, nine of them on TV and one on the radio. The latest addition to his busy schedule is on NTV at 11:45pm on Mondays, so he now has shows in the morning, afternoon, evening and late at night. Mino was most recently in the news following his back surgery immediately after hosting the Kohaku spectacular on New Year's Eve, after which he spent two weeks in hospital.
