From a factory worker to making millions on Tiktok, meet the most-followed individual on Tiktok, Khaby Lame. With over 162 million followers, he holds the title of the most-followed individual on the platform. But what makes Khaby so special? His witty and sarcastic approach to everyday situations has captured the hearts of millions around the world.
Instead of dancing or lip-syncing, Khaby uses his facial expressions and body language to create comedy gold. He has even been dubbed the “Italian King of Comedy” by his fans. Despite his massive success, Khaby remains humble and down-to-earth, using his platform to spread positivity and inspire others to follow their dreams.
But let’s not forget how Khabane got here. It all started with him getting laid off during the pandemic and turning to TikTok as a creative outlet. He started off by dancing and watching video games, but it was his unique take on complicated “life hacks” that really caught people’s attention. His simple and effective solutions, accompanied by his signature hand gesture, quickly went viral and before he knew it, he was a household name.
Khabane has been recognized by major publications like Forbes and Fortune. Khabane is earning up to $750,000 per post. And he’s on track to make $10 million by the end of this year. He has also been added as a cosmetic outfit in the popular video game Fortnite Battle Royale. That’s right, you can now dress up your character as the TikTok star himself.
