The US Government, under the leadership of Donald Trump, has deported Khaby Lame, the world’s most followed TikTok creator, over alleged illegal migration.

The New York Times reports that Lame was detained by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) last Friday in Las Vegas and subsequently deported from the United States over allegations of overstaying his visa.

Lame, a 25-year-old Italian-Senegalese influencer with over 160 million followers on TikTok, was reportedly picked up by ICE operatives at Harry Reid International Airport.

The agency confirmed the detention in an official statement, stating that Lame entered the country on April 30 but “overstayed the terms of his visa.”

The TikToker was granted a voluntary departure order on Friday and has since exited the U.S.

His deportation from the country has ignited uproar online, not just over his visa status but because a young Trump-aligned influencer is claiming responsibility for tipping off authorities.

“Every single illegal alien needs to be DEPORTED. When I found out the biggest TikTok star, Khaby Lame, is an illegal alien evading taxes, I worked with Trump’s ICE to have him removed. He’s since been detained by ICE and removed,” Bo Loudon, a Gen Z Trump supporter and self-styled activist, wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

Loudon, a teenager whose Instagram is plastered with smiling photos alongside former President Donald Trump, his son Barron, and various members of the MAGA inner circle, said he made a few calls to the top after hearing from friends about Lame’s alleged undocumented presence.

“I just called some buddies in the administration,” Loudon said in an interview with online streamer Dylan Page. “And I’ve never seen anything happen so quick.”

Loudon further accused Lame of being politically hostile to the Trump movement. However, there is no public record of Lame making overt political statements, nor has he commented on Trump or U.S. politics.

Lame, who rose to fame by mocking overly complex “life hack” videos with silent, comic reaction clips, had built a lucrative career on his expressive face and deadpan gestures.

His meteoric rise led to partnerships with major fashion labels, a cameo in a Hollywood film, and a U.S.-based reality TV show titled “Khaby Is Coming To America” on Tubi.

Despite the mounting controversy, Lame has not released any public statement on his deportation.

He did not respond to multiple media inquiries, but on Monday, he posted an Instagram story from São Paulo, Brazil, his first verified location after leaving the U.S.

The New York Times added that Lame’s former legal representative, Riccardo Lanzo, said Lame had spent considerable time in the United States in recent months, though he admitted he was “unsure about his visa situation.”

ICE’s enforcement against Lame comes amid a broader immigration crackdown under President Trump’s renewed term in office.

The agency has seen a spike in arrests and removals, with some actions now bleeding into the high-profile worlds of influencers and celebrities.

The New York Times reached out to Loudon for comment, but he declined the request, instead referring the publication to his interview with Dylan Page.

Rapper and actor Falz has stood firm in his assertion that fornication is not a sin despite widespread criticism from Christians and Muslims.

In a recent interview with Arise TV, Falz clarified that his comments were not rooted in Christianity, but rather in his personal belief system, which he calls the “religion of love”.

Falz argued that premarital s3x between consenting adults doesn’t harm anyone and shouldn’t be considered wrong.

He emphasised that he’s no longer a Christian and that his “religion of love” prioritises individual freedom and mutual consent.

He said: “I think people would read the tweet and just assume that I meant according to Christianity.

“I wasn’t really speaking from that perspective. I practice the religion of love. Under that religion, I don’t think fornication is a sin.

“Because I looked at it, I strictly addressed the issue: Why are we not allowed to engage in this premarital intercourse? What is the issue? Who does it offend?

“These are not married people. These are two unmarried people. Willingly. Consensually. Personally, I don’t think there is a problem there.

“I’m no longer a Christian. I practice religion of love.”
