Khabane Lame
Khabane Lame, known as Khaby Lame, is an Italian-Senegalese TikTok star who gained fame for his humorous and straightforward videos that simplify complicated life hacks. Born in Senegal and raised in Italy after his family emigrated two decades ago, Lame began creating content on TikTok in March 2020 after losing his factory job due to the COVID-19 pandemic. His silent yet expressive style resonated with millions, making him one of the most followed creators on the platform.
