Uninitiated social media watchers are about to become well-acquainted with a towering new name on TikTok: the Senegalese-Italian phenom Khaby Lame, who last week surpassed Addison Rae to become the platform’s second most-followed creator.
And, Insider reports, Lame -- who has risen to renown for his comedic reactions and sketches -- is also on track to best longtime leader Charli D’Amelio as the most-followed creator on all of TikTok. Lame could achieve that feat by mid-August.
Per Social Blade, D'Amelio counts 120 million followers, but gained just 2.6 million over the past 30 days, whereas Lame counts 89.6 million followers but amassed a stunning 21.9 million over the past 30 days -- meaning his rate of growth is currently eight times faster than D'Amelio's. Rae, for her part, counts 81.9 million followers and gained 990,000 new followers within the past 30 days, according to Social Blade.
