Comprehensive reports from the British Daily Mail and other foreign media on the 8th, Khaby Lame, the top internet celebrity on short video social platform TikTok, was recently arrested in the United States and has voluntarily left the country.
Authorized by the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE) spokesman said the Senegal-born Italian citizen entered the United States on April 30 and was detained at an airport in Las Vegas, Nevada on June 6 for "violating immigration regulations."
ICE's statement stated: "Seringe Khabane Lame, a 25-year-old Italian citizen, was detained by ICE for violating immigration regulations at Harry Reed International Airport in Las Vegas on June 6. Lame's visa was overdue after entering the country on April 30, which violated the US immigration law. He was allowed to leave voluntarily on June 6 and has left the United States."
The report pointed out that despite being detained, Lame's activity on social media did not appear to be affected. On June 7, he posted a photo suspected to have been taken on Venice Beach on social platform Instagram, and the video of his TikTok account is still being updated.
Since US President Trump returns to the White House, ICE has stepped up its raids and searches to combat illegal immigrants. According to official US statements, as of now, hundreds of thousands of illegal residents in the United States have been arrested or repatriated by the authorities. On June 5 and 6, raids by ICE personnel in Los Angeles also sparked mass protests.
According to reports, Kabi Lame moved from Senegal to Chivaso near Turin, Italy with his family, and officially obtained Italian nationality in 2022. He became famous for satirizing those "life tips" that were too complicated. He usually doesn't speak in the short videos he shot. He uses his helpless "speechless" expression to convey humor only with his helpless expression and simple actions. He once said that this expression is to communicate with the audience in "global language". Today, Rame has more than 162 million followers on TikTok, making it one of the creators with the most fans on the platform.
