World’s famous TikToker Khaby Lame leaves US after being detained by immigration officials

World’s famous TikToker Khaby Lame leaves US after being detained by immigration officials

One of the world’s most famous TikTok stars Khaby Lame has left the US after being detained by immigration officials.

The influencer was detained in Las Vegas for allegedly staying in the country after his visa expired.

He then voluntarily departed, but officials did not say which day he left.

Lame is one of hundreds of people caught in US President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown, which includes cross-country raids and an increasing number of deportations, and which has also sparked days of protest against Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Lame has not publicly commented on his voluntary departure, leaving fans guessing about when he left and where he is now.

ICE says he arrived in the US on the 30th of April and then overstayed his visa, and officials say he was released the same day he was detained and subsequently left the country.
