Events
While not a performer, Sakagami often appears at THE iDOLM@STER live events to provide announcements or updates on upcoming games. During his appearances, he almost always wears an orange shirt to represent his company. Because of this, glow sticks in the color "Ultra Orange" are often used by audience members to cheer him on. In addition, it is a common practice for audience members to shout "Pervert!" (ヘンタイ ) while he enters the stage. He seems to have no problem with this and has said he enjoyed it in interviews, especially because this call comes close to breaking world records.
