There is NO WAY adele is 5'9 or 5'8. She does not look that tall. I'd downgrade her to 5'6.5.

@Vanessa: I know that the Jonas Brothers have an obvious advantage over her, but still, even if she was on flats and bending her knees (she wasn't on that pic, there's another pic where we can see their legs and she was losing height, but not much), she still can't be 5'9".
I'll post the pic when I find it. Look at the backstage videos of her and Ellen DeGeneres (who's around 5'6.5"); with equal footwear, Adele is 1" taller than her at most, which means that she can't be over 5'7.5". Vanessa says on 4/Jan/12
Henkka - If you pay attention, she bends her knees when take pictures close to smaller people! In the pictured with the Jonas Brothers we can see it clearly!

And she was wearing flats that day! I saw many videos of that show! Also, I heard she saying in an interview that her height is 5'9. I'm an Adeleaddict!! haha Vanessa says on 4/Jan/12

Adele is 5 ft 9 in! Henkka says on 21/Dec/11
I thought she was 5'9", until this week. Now I'm sure, a strong 5'7" is the most she could be. The videos and pics next to the Jonas Brothers, Ellen Degeneres, Alicia Keys... I've seen make her look in the 5'6.5"-5'7.5" range tops. We'd need more proof, but as of now, I'm not seeing a chance of her being anything over 5'7.5"... Jamie says on 20/Dec/11
How about 5'8 Jonas Brothers and Adele? We don't know about footwear but assuming she is wearing flats and the guys are wearing shoes that give them one inch (making them 5'9) she can at most be 5'7!?

If she is NOT in flats she must be even smaller than 5'7. I think she should be downgraded a little ... Bakura says on 19/Dec/11
Rob, she needs a downgrade:

With the Jonas Brothers, she looks 5'6.5" max.
[Editor Rob: as I said in february, there is a chance she wasn't her claim.
but, one thing to note for her is that in photos is she can look 5ft 6 range, but then she likely drops a bit of height in poses.
one thing though, she likes to stand cross legged.] 178 says on 19/Oct/11
Adele with Paul Weller - listed here as 5' 10"... although I believe he's 5' 10.75":

Rob, there is clearly more than 1 inch between them. Would you upgrade Paul as many posts have suggested or downgrade Adele?

So George what you are saying that caucasian women can't sing? George says on 2/Sep/11
Adele is really tall i just watched the VMAs and her hands are really large and fingers very long almost making her 6 foot in the VMA, she has a very strong voice and i initially thought it was an african woman singing when i only heard the voice on radio , but realize now it was a tall caucasion lady !! Sharon Burke says on 4/Aug/11
I've met Adele a few times in London, and was about an inch shorter than my husband (6'1) when wearing 3 inch heels, which puts her around 5'9. So I believe her claim. Plus there's no need for female singers to lie about their height, so why would she? hugewhofan says on 2/Jul/11
is Adele really 5ft 9? im listening to "Rolling in the deep" right now. who IS Rory Emerald (the ninja in the music video)? Lynn Cee says on 25/Feb/11
Did you see Adele on the Ellen Degeneres show yesterday? To my amazement, Adele absolutely towered over Ellen. Ellen appeared to be in her usual flats, but, even given Adele's higher heeled shoes, Adele would still be taller than Ellen by at least 1.5" — yet Ellen's height is listed as 5'7 or 5'7.5" and Adele is listed as 5'6" ... something doesn't square with reality. Watch a clip of Adele's brilliant performance on Ellen and you will see, at the end, when Ellen comes over to congratulate Adele, that Ellen has to look w-a-y up at Adele (I always assumed that Adele was short and stout, but not so). Reality check, please!
[Editor Rob: she isn't listed 5ft 6 on this page, I put her at her claim (5ft 9) but there is argument whether she is really 5ft 8] |
