Man charged after jumping on stage during Katy Perry concert in Australia
Katy Perry was Wide Awake after a fan stormed on stage and put his arm around her during a concert in Sydney, Australia on Monday.

The man started dancing by himself after Perry spun around to distance herself from him and continued to sing. As he performed the 'floss' dance move, security approached him from both sides and escorted him off stage. 'There's never going to be another show like this, so just enjoy it, Sydney,' Perry said into her microphone as security grabbed the man. 'What the hell is going on?'

Khaby Lame has the most followers on TikTok. ICE detained him — and now he's left the U.S.
Khaby Lame, the world's most popular TikTok personality with millions of followers, has left the U.S. after being detained by immigration agents in Las Vegas for allegedly overstaying his visa. The Senegalese-Italian influencer, whose legal name is Serigne Khabane Lame, was detained Friday at Harry Reid International Airport but was allowed to leave the country without a deportation order, a spokesperson for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) confirmed in a statement. Lame arrived in the U.S. on April 30 and "overstayed the terms of his visa," the ICE spokesperson said. The Associated Press sent a message seeking comment Tuesday to the email address listed on Lame's Instagram account. He has not publicly commented on his detainment. His detainment and voluntary departure from the U.S. comes amid President Donald Trump's escalating crackdown on immigration, including raids in Los Angeles that sparked days of protests against ICE, as the president tests the bounds of his executive authority.
