LAS VEGAS (AP) — Khaby Lame, the world’s most popular TikTok personality with millions of followers, has left the U.S. after being detained by immigration agents in Las Vegas for allegedly overstaying his visa.
The Senegalese-Italian influencer, whose legal name is Seringe Khabane Lame, was detained Friday at Harry Reid International Airport but was allowed to leave the country without a deportation order, a spokesperson for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed in a statement.

Well, bye.
Harry Reid Airport? Every passenger boards with a black eye.
What an appropriate name.
I wanna be an Influencer. Or at least a Flatulencer.
That dude is hilarious!
“the world’s most popular TikTok personality with millions of followers...”
So is that supposed to be some lame argument for letting him stay here?
I could not care less. OUT.
He can be hilarious in another country. Thats the great thing about social media, you can do it anywhere...as the bartenders say at closing time “you don’t have to go home but you can’t stay here”
“allegedly overstaying his visa”
Freakin’ ap.......spit
I hadn’t heard of him but looked him up. He really is funny; but I like simple-minded humor.
I didn’t know his name but recognize him after searching. He is funny and the clips I’ve seen were leaning conservative or at least common sense. Maybe those were the only ones posted to conservative feeds.
He reminds me of Mr. Bean. The facial expressions and hand movements. Makes me laugh every time without his ever saying a word. Glad to see he self-deported though and didn’t use his clout to raise a stink. Seems like a pretty good dude.
Good riddance.
Always good to follow the laws of the nations you visit. 😁
“Always good to follow the laws of the nations you visit”
Brittney Griner can tell you something about that
The premise of this article seems to imply that because he is a popular person, he should be given a pass.
Overstaying your VISA is a serious charge, or it used to be. You KNOW when you are supposed to leave and if you choose to ignore, there were serious consequences, at least in the past.
You can be barred from coming back to the country for many years or forever.
I guess he came on a 30 day visa, and maybe tried to extend to 45 days?
The guy has some good vids, surprised he wasn’t granted a 6 month visa. He looks to have enough income not to become parasite on the taxpayers.
Hope this doesn’t spot him from more trips to help our economies.
>> I wanna be ... a Flatulencer.
Careful what you wish for. I am a world-class flatulencer! But for some reason no one follows me. 😉
Ha ha.
