TikTok Star Khaby Lame Leaves US After Immigration Detainment

  • Lame entered the U.S. on April 30, 2025, but authorities detained him for allegedly overstaying his visa amid the Trump administration's ongoing immigration crackdown.
  • After detention at Harry Reid International Airport, officials allowed Lame to depart voluntarily, avoiding a deportation order that could have restricted his reentry for up to 10 years.
  • A spokesperson from ICE confirmed Lame’s visa overstay, while he has not publicly commented on his detention and recent departure from the U.S.
  • Lame’s departure highlights the intensified immigration enforcement under President Trump, which has coincided with widespread protests and National Guard deployment in cities like Los Angeles.
