À propos de cet audio
The biggest story swirling around Khaby Lame in recent days is his sudden departure from the United States after being briefly detained by immigration authorities. According to BBC News and Associated Press coverage as reported by fiijivillage.com and IMDb, Khaby—currently the worlds most-followed TikToker—was stopped by Immigration and Customs Enforcement at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas on June 6, after officials discovered he had overstayed his visa. He first entered the US on April 30, notably ahead of his high-profile appearance at the Met Gala in New York. Lame was not deported but instead granted a voluntary departure, choosing to leave the US the same day he was released. Neither ICE nor Khaby specified the exact date he left or his current location, sparking widespread speculation on social media, with fans demanding to know where he is and what comes next. Khaby himself has not commented publicly on the incident up to this point, leaving his millions of followers guessing and fueling a steady churn of memes and hashtags about his sudden exit and future plans across TikTok, Instagram, and X.
Media ranging from Arab News to Africanews to IMDb have all led with versions of headlines like TikTok star Khaby Lame leaves the US after his detention by federal agents and Khaby Lame, Worlds Biggest TikTok Star, Leaves U.S. After Being Detained By ICE. This has forced a discussion about prominent figures caught in the ongoing crackdown on visa overstays under tighter US immigration policies, a topic now trending on TikTok and Google alike.
Despite this turbulence, Khaby’s social footprint remains enormous. According to Accio, he retains the top spot among TikTok creators in 2025 with 162.5 million followers, and Amra & Elma names him the most bookable influencer on Instagram, now boasting nearly eighty million followers there. Buzz about his brand contracts and silent comedy formulas is still robust. Amra & Elma also confirms that his business team remains tightly organized, and he continues to attract lucrative marketing collaborations even while outside the US. Forbes previously estimated his annual influencer marketing income at $16.5 million, a figure that industry observers say is likely to climb given the global attention.
There is no verified news on new business ventures, product launches, or notable public appearances since the immigration episode, and any rumors about Khaby resuming filming or making surprise appearances remain unconfirmed. Social media continues to speculate about his next moves, with #WhereIsKhaby trending, but as of today, all available reports agree: Khaby Lame’s biggest recent headline is his voluntary, closely watched exit from the US after a brush with immigration enforcement—an event that will likely shape his narrative and international brand campaigns for months to come.
