The applause took me by surprise,” he said. ”I’m just trying to celebrate others when I realize I’m just married too!”
Meanwhile, fellow comedian and friend of Sakamoto, Yuzuru Kawaguchi from the Einstein duo, has taken to social media to share anecdotes about their dinner following the wedding announcement.
