Khaby Lame is the most followed tiktoker ever

With 143.2 million followers and 2.3 billion views, Khaby Lame is officially the world's most-followed titktoker. The 22-year-old of Senegalese descent had managed to surpass Addison Rae in July 2021 and has now dethroned teenager Charli D'Amelio, to his credit with a fanbase boasting 142.3 million followers. Currently residing in Italy, Khaby Lame began filming dance skits and skits in which she reacts to video games. Success, however, came in 2021: with videos and content aimed at suggestions that are as ironic as they are obvious, he has gained a growing audience. «The idea came to me because I was seeing these videos circulating and I liked the idea of bringing some simplicity» he told CNN last year.

His signature style is based on exaggerating facial expressions and expressive reactions in the face of mundane everyday setbacks, without speaking in any of his viral videos on TikTok. The commitment of his followers, recently deployed in the forefront to further grow his community, has taken him straight to the top of the charts. He has achieved such popularity that he was called as a juror - for the section dedicated to tiktokers - at the Cannes Film Festival, an experience that strengthened his connection with cinema. And with fashion, since he was chosen by Boss as the face of the SS22 campaign and star of an exclusive capsule collection already on sale.
