This is Masaki Sumitani, aka Razor Ramon Hard Gay (or simply Hard Gay).
Some openly gays, lesbians, and hetereosexuals will say that HG is really offensive, because, as you have probably guess, Sumitani is not gay. Personally, I think he's misunderstood, and that it is just a comedy act.
Anyway, as far as I can tell, Sumitani was originally a wrestler (with his famous hip-thrust final move). He officially retired from wrestling last year, probably due to his huge success on the Japanese television show "Bakusho Mondai no Bakuten!"
HG is very popular right now in some circle, and last year released an album. I downloaded this song from hard-gay.org called "Young Man", which is a re-work of the Village People's "YMCA" song, except with some Japanese lyrics. And of course his trademark "HOOO!"
Trivia: HG's "Whooo!" was probably inspired by American Wrestler Ric "Nature Boy" Flair (WWE).
