TikTok star Khaby Lame: Arrested in Vegas, USA leaving!
It's an exciting but worrying chapter in 25-year-old TikTok star Khaby Lame's life that has now taken an unexpected turn. The social media sensation, known for his humorous, wordless reaction videos to complicated life hacks, was detained by ICE at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas. Lame, who has over 160 million followers on TikTok, was forced to leave the US after overstaying the terms of his visa. According to the information from zvw.de and nytimes.com He entered the USA on April 30 and spent more time in the country than allowed.
The situation worsened when Lame was approached by immigration authorities on Friday. ICE offered him the opportunity to voluntarily leave the country, which he ultimately accepted. So far, Lame has not publicly commented on the incidents, but has continued to post content on his social media, including an Instagram story from São Paulo, Brazil.
Who is behind the deportation?
Another interesting aspect of the story is that a pro-Trump activist named Bo Loudon claims to be responsible for Lame's deportation. Loudon said he was informed that Lame was in the U.S. illegally and contacted friends in the Trump administration to follow up. These allegations highlight the current political situation in which the US government has increasingly taken action against people without valid documents since Donald Trump took office, which also became Lame's downfall.
Khaby Lame, who was born in Senegal and has lived in Italy since he was one, has spent a lot of time in the United States in recent months. His former lawyer, Riccardo Lanzo, reported Lame's uncertainty regarding his visa status, making the entire situation even more complex. Lame, who has not only found huge success on TikTok but has also partnered with fashion brands and appeared in a Hollywood film, seems temporarily withdrawn from the experience.
Still, this could be an important lesson for many artists and influencers who operate internationally. The influence of individuals on politics has also increased significantly these days. It remains to be seen how the situation develops for Lame and whether he will soon return to the stage to delight his audience with his unique talents.
