Charli D'Amelio is no longer the only TikTok mega star. With his unique expressions and characteristic humor that have become his signature, content creator Khaby Lame has quickly conquered the hearts of Internet users. The young Senegalese influencer is now the second creator to accumulate over 100 million followers on the platform.

A significant accomplishment -- as it's even more than the sultry Bella Poarch, one of the emblematic figures of TikTok, counts.


With few words and just some meaningful hand movements, which have become his signature, Khaby Lame, real name: Khabane, has quickly become one of the sensations on TikTok. A meteoric and unexpected career path for this young man of 21 years living in Chivasso, Italy, whose posts now directly reach more than 101 million subscribers on the platform. As TikTok emphasises, it's nothing short of sensational, since this feat was achieved in only 17 months, and even more impressive given that Khaby Lame has largely surpassed Bella Poarch in this regard.

"I am honoured to have achieved this milestone, made possible by the global TikTok community. I am passionate about entertaining and making people laugh since childhood, and I am thankful to TikTok for offering me a global stage to share my passion with the rest of the world. I will continue to work towards my dreams, knowing I can count on a beautiful community ready to cheer me on. Thank you and I love you all!" said Khaby Lame.
