TikTok star Khaby Lame was detained by ICE on Friday, June 6 for immigration violation, PEOPLE can confirm.

“U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained Seringe Khabane Lame, 25, a citizen of Italy, June 6, at the Harry Reid International Airport, Las Vegas, Nevada for immigration violations,” an ICE spokesperson told PEOPLE in an email statement on Monday, June 9. “Lame entered the United States April 30 and overstayed the terms of his visa.”

The Senegalese-Italian influencer, 25, — who moved to Italy from his native Senegal when he was a baby, but was granted Italian citizenship in August 2022 — has since left the country, confirmed the ICE spokesperson.

“Lame was granted voluntary departure June 6 and has since departed the U.S.,” continued ICE’s statement.

News of Lame’s detainment came after rumors swirled online that the internet phenom was arrested.

PEOPLE reached out to a representative for Lame for comment on Monday, June 9 on the matter, but did not immediately hear back.

In 2024, Lame was named one of PEOPLE’s Creators of the Year. He opened up about his humble beginnings and meteoric rise to fame on social media, where he continues to hold the record for having the most followers on TikTok to date.

“Before TikTok, I was working in a factory. I had a lot of different jobs,” he told PEOPLE last year. “I was helping support my family — three little brothers, one older brother and my parents. Then my world changed completely. It’s a whole different life now.”

Lame amassed fame online for his comedic content. Specifically, he’s known for silently mocking overly complicated “life hack” and other situational videos.

“When I discovered TikTok during COVID, I was making videos for fun. It was a way for all of us to step outside of all the things that were going on in the world,” he shared. “I was just there trying to make people laugh. It wasn’t something that I expected to be my form of work in the future.”

The content creator also revealed his first big purchase since his success.

“The first thing I did with the money I’ve made is buy a bigger house for my family,” he revealed. “We’re a family of seven. It’s a big family.”

Lame added, “I don’t like to spend a lot of money, but for this, my family has always done so much for me.”

The Parent Trap star Elaine Hendrix might happily let another lizard crawl around on her face, thank you very much!

In a new interview about her upcoming Freakier Friday cameo opposite fellow Parent Trap star Lindsay Lohan, Hendrix tells Entertainment Weekly she’s willing to shoot a sequel to Disney’s 1998 cinematic remake of the 1961 original — even if it might be difficult for her antagonistic character, Meredith Blake, to find a way back into the story.

“There are always rumors. I don’t know where they come from. I think it’s mostly [from] fans who would love to see that,” Hendrix says when asked about plans for a potential continuation to the film, which saw Lohan play dual roles as twins Hallie and Annie as they prepared for their father’s (Dennis Quaid) unfavorable marriage to Meredith.

Hendrix confirms that she’s yet to hear “anything official” about a second film, and questions, “How would you bring Meredith Blake back into the sequel?” after the girls’ dad broke up with her during the bombastic finale.

“But, I’d be so crushed if she wasn’t part of a sequel,” Hendrix admits, adding that she’d “hands down, in the right situation” join a sequel if the studio asked.

“Clearly there are so many sequels that should have never been made, and I’m not going to name names or titles,” she jokes. “Freakier Friday is definitely not one of them. Our Parent Trap wasn’t a sequel — it was reboot, and definitely should’ve been made. So, yeah, I’d totally be into it. I loved it, that was a great experience from A to Z.”

Of her reunion with Lohan in Freakier Friday, which also stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Hendrix says she’s now in closer contact with Lohan than she ever was before, as she tells EW she didn’t speak much with the child star after The Parent Trap due to a difference in age.

“She lives on the other side of the world and has a family and is busy. We both have full lives, but particularly through social media and texting, we’re staying in touch, which is quite lovely,” Hendrix says. “I’m so happy for her and where she is in her life. It’s nice, in these new chapters of our lives, to be in contact.”

Freakier Friday is in theaters on Aug. 8.

Mark Hamill isn’t so sure that Donald Trump is a real Star Wars fan. 

During Friday’s episode of The View, the Luke Skywalker actor was asked to weigh in on the AI-generated image of a weirdly jacked Trump holding a red lightsaber that the White House posted on social media last month in celebration of May the Fourth.

And critiques, he had. “Well, first of all, I thought: ‘If he’s a Star Wars fan, he should know he should be holding a green lightsaber,'” Hamill remarked, shaking his head in confusion. “Not an evil red lightsaber!”

As the View cohosts laughed, 73-year-old actor proceeded to quote his original social media response to the image, saying, “My comment was: ‘Proof positive he’s full of Sith.'” 

Hamill then explained that he believes the only way to truly combat Trump’s absurd antics is through humor. “I don’t get angry and I don’t drop F-bombs,” he said. “I mean, I know I have a lot of kids that follow me, but I think to have fun with it, mock him — that’s the kryptonite to malignant narcissists.”

May the Fourth, a play on the phrase “May the Force be with you,” is a special day for Star Wars fans to celebrate the franchise. Last month the White House chose to partake in the festivities by sharing the image of Trump — as well as two outrageously large bald eagles and two American flags, both of which do not exist in the Star Wars universe — and an ominous message that took a blatant shot at those across the political aisle.

“Happy May the 4th to all, including the Radical Left Lunatics who are fighting so hard to to [sic] bring Sith Lords, Murderers, Drug Lords, Dangerous Prisoners, & well known MS-13 Gang Members, back into our Galaxy,” the post read. “You’re not the Rebellion—you’re the Empire. May the 4th be with you.”

While one can only assume that Trump’s team gave him that lightsaber because he’s a Republican politician, red lightsabers have historically been wielded by the Sith and turned that bloodied hue because they have been imbued with the Dark Side of the Force. Popular red lightsaber users include Darth Maul, Kylo Ren, and Darth Vader, the latter of whom was a key leader in the Galactic Empire in the original Star Wars trilogy.

Given the connotations, the White House’s color choice was met with general confusion across the board.

“How do you not have one nerd on staff to tell you what color lightsaber is good and what color is bad???” one social media user wrote. Another commented, “Hey sorry, confused patriot here. Why does Trump have a red lightsaber?”

And a third, perhaps, put it best when they added, “This account is so cringe.”

The View airs weekdays on ABC.
