TikTok Star Khaby Lame Leaves United States After ICE Detention

TikTok megastar Khaby Lame has voluntarily departed the United States after being detained by ICE.

According to DailyMail.com, an ICE spokesperson in a statement revealed that Lame, an Italian citizen born in Senegal, was detained by the agency on June 6 due to ‘immigration violations’ after entering the U.S. on April 30.

Khaby – whose full name is Seringe Khabane Lame – was granted voluntary departure and has now left the country.

“U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained Seringe Khabane Lame, 25, a citizen of Italy, on June 6 at the Harry Reid International Airport, Las Vegas, Nevada, for immigration violations. Lame entered the United States on April 30 and overstayed the terms of his visa. Lame was granted voluntary departure on June 6 and has since departed the U.S.”

Since the detention, he has managed to remain active on social media. On June 7, he posted a photo of what appeared to be Venice Beach to his Instagram Stories, and a video was also shared to his TikTok (the app states the post was uploaded ‘one day ago’).
