Who Was the Most Followed on TikTok Before Khaby Lame?

Charli D'Amelio, for a little over two years. Here's how the top spot has changed hands:

  • Loren Gray, on the app since it was still called Musical.ly, was first for a while before 2020. She's 39th today with 52.7 million.
  • Charli D'Amelio passed her on March 25, 2020, with 41.4 million followers to Gray's 41.3 million. She'd joined only nine months earlier.
  • On November 22, 2020, D'Amelio became the first person to reach 100 million followers on TikTok. She was 16.
  • Khaby Lame passed D'Amelio on June 22, 2022. She's second today with 160.3 million.

Of the top 50, 12 are teams, leagues, brands or bands. The biggest is TikTok's own account, fourth with 95.9 million.

  • Football: FIFA World Cup (9th), Real Madrid (14th), FC Barcelona (19th), UEFA Champions League (25th), Paris Saint-Germain (30th) and LaLiga (48th)
  • K-pop: BTS (11th) and Blackpink (40th)
  • Sports media: ESPN (22nd) and Barstool Sports (44th)
  • Brands: TikTok (4th) and Netflix (35th)

Where Do These Follower Counts Come From?

From TikTok. We open each account's public profile the way a browser does when nobody's logged in and read the follower count TikTok sends with the page.

It's the exact count, not the rounded one you see in the app.

To pick which accounts to check, we start from Wikipedia's list of the most followed TikTok accounts and another public top 100 list, then read every account ourselves.

The lists only tell us where to look, and none of the numbers come from them. An account that's missing from both could be missing here too.

Counts change every day, so think of the table as a snapshot from September 28, 2026. We count again every month and update the date at the top.
