Yamasaki Hosei

Hōsei Yamasaki (山崎 邦正 Yamasaki Hōsei) is a Japanese solo comedian and a member of Yoshimoto Kogyo’s extensive owarai lineup. He is best known for being one of the five members (and the only solo comedian) of Downtown Gaki no Tsukai’s regular cast. His role on the show is usually divided up between the suberi-kyara and the ijime-kyara. He plays the piano in his spare time, and his musical talent has been the focus of the Yamasaki Producer series wherein he composes pieces and has the other members perform them.
Outside of Gaki no Tsukai, he has released two books, a CD single of his signature "Yamazaki Ichi-ban!" song, and has appeared in several Yoshimoto Kogyo compilations and DVD releases. Yamasaki also works on radio station.
