♬ suono originale – Khabane lame

We’ve finally reached the most popular account on TikTok. And it’s @khaby.lame! This account belongs to TikTok creator Khabane Lame (also known as Khaby Lame). This TIkTok account often features funny, skit-style videos starring Lame.

The most unique thing about his skits however, is the fact that the humor doesn’t so much lie in what you hear but in Lame’s silent reactions to the situations featured in his videos. His facial expressions alone are comedy gold.

Note: The above rankings were based on Social Blade’s findings and the current number of followers listed on each TikTok creator’s profile page, as of August 16, 2022.
