Washington, June 8 (UNI) The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said it had detained one of the world’s most famous TikTokers, Khaby Lame, due to his visa expiration.
“US Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained Seringe Khabane Lame, 25, a citizen of Italy, June 6, at the Harry Reid International Airport, Las Vegas, Nevada for immigration violations,” the ICE said in a statement to Agence France-Presse.
According to authorities, Lame entered the United States on April 30, but it turned out that he had overstayed his visa. The blogger was released on the day of his detention, after which he voluntarily left the country.
Lame is a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and one of the most popular TikTok influencers, with more than 162 million followers. His short, wordless videos have gone viral, poking fun at the complicated instructions and advice that abound on the internet.
