Youtuber
Khabane "Khaby" Lame is a Senegalese-Italian influencer and content creator, best known for his highly popular, silent comedic videos on TikTok. He is currently the most-followed user on the platform.
Lame's signature content consists of "duet" or "stitch" videos where he wordlessly mocks overly complicated "life hack" videos by demonstrating a much simpler, common-sense way to achieve the same result. His humor relies entirely on his deadpan facial expressions and a signature shrug and hand gesture, which allows his comedy to transcend language barriers and resonate with a global audience.
Born in Senegal in 2000, his family moved to Italy when he was one year old. His rise to fame began in March 2020 after he was laid off from his factory job during the COVID-19 pandemic, leading him to start posting videos on TikTok. He became an Italian citizen in 2022. He has expanded his career to include major brand deals, such as with Hugo Boss, and appearances in film.
