It seems that most of the traffic on this site comes from outside of Japan, so most readers are unaware of the Hard Gay fad that’s been going on in Japan for the last 7 months or so.

Razor Ramone HG, or “Hard Gay” as he is more popularly known, is a comedian whose gimmick is to dress up in some sort of gay leather outfit and hump the air at an incredible rate(all to the tune of “Livin’ la vida loca”). His catch phrases are “Okaaaayy!!!” and “Foo!”. This gimmick, which would have probably died quickly in any other country, has been popular since the mid 2005. Hard Gay makes almost daily appearances on Japanese TV programs.

I’ve managed to locate a few clips from Japanese TV featuring Razor Ramone HG in action. Thanks to the amazing power of google video, you can watch them in your backwards countries! Since most of HG’s humor involves being loud and acting “gay”, you don’t need to understand Japanese to enjoy these clips:
Clip 1 Features Razor Ramone HG emulating his hero, Superman, by helping various people he encounters. He helps a man load a truck, helps a musician, and helps lift a motorcycle(while acting totally gay, of course).

Clip 2 is entitled “Hard Gay Tissue.” Razor Ramone HG comes to the aid of a guy passing out promotional campaign tissues. He shouts “Hard Gay Tissues” at people walking buy and succeeds in making people take the tissues.

Clip 3 is a recently produced music video featuring Razor Ramone HG singing and dancing “Young Man”, the Japanese version of YMCA. It is somewhat gay, but not as amusing as his other works:

Watch them now, before the Hard Gay craze completely dies out!
