Click Here There are also a few new photos of Miles and Alex at the honours list thing - Alex is taller.? Anonymous says on 2/Jul/08

Tom says on 28/Jun/08
the new video, he looks around 175. and miles looks 178-80. Anonymous says on 27/Jun/08
That's awesome 'lucie mogg', where did you meet him, after a show? And, if so, how was it? I agree with you, he looks a strong 5'10" or 5'11"; 5'9.5" is a bit sceptical. Also, for those who think he is shorter than Miles....check out the new "The Last Shadow Puppets" music video for the song "Standing Next to Me". They are in similar footwear (or so it seems) and Alex is definitely as tall, if not taller, than Kane. Here's the link to the video on youtube --> Click Here They both look around 5'11" or so. Normal dress footwear; great tune. lucie mogg says on 20/Jun/08
alex if definatly 5'11 i met him and asked him! :) Anonymous says on 20/Jun/08
miles kane is taller than alex by a few inches, they aint the same height at all, whoever said they were the same Anonymous says on 19/Jun/08
no way alex is 5'8 .. i think it's right 5'9.5'' in the picture of anonymous.. he looks taller than alexa,, and if she's 5'8 seems like right. Anonymous says on 7/Jun/08
If Alexa is 5'8", Alex is 5'8" or 5'9". Click Here Anonymous says on 15/May/08
Lauren, I am a bit confused as well.....has your father actually met A-Turner or are you just judging? Nevertheless, I think your guess is accurate seeing as Alex looks a strong 5'10" or a little over 5'11". andromaghé says on 9/May/08
i don't understand. what happend with your dad? or what do you want with your father here? i dont know what do you want with this. alex is 5'8" - 5'9" lauren says on 7/May/08
well he is taller than my dad i think my dads about 5ft 8 or 5ft 9 but my dad actually looks really tall but obviously he is a short arse !!!! greg says on 30/Apr/08
That's a great picture, bogart_heels. Even if Macca is 5'11", there's no way Alex Turner is 5'9.5" - as you say Macca always wears trainers. The picture you posted was taken at the Q awards- as was the one I posted below and you can see that Alex is wearing a dress shoe with a standard inch and a half heel. Alex is 5'8" all day long. andromaghé says on 20/Apr/08
I saw more videos when they stand each other by (youtube) and my opinion, that it 5-6-7cm shows between them. and Miles do not appear so tall for me. Anonymous says on 18/Apr/08
Toward the beginning of the video, Miles seems taller than Alex (that's probably where you got that andromaghé), but as the video goes on, you can see that it was just the ground because when they were singing into the mic. or walking next to each other, they are are definitely around the same height. Does anyone know how tall Miles is? Anonymous says on 11/Apr/08
Miles is just a tiny bit taller than Alex. andromaghé says on 2/Apr/08
Miles Kane seems much taller than him. is between them according to me 5-10cm. approximately 173-175 tall possibly. bogart_heels says on 31/Mar/08
If Macca's 5'10", then Alex Turner's gotta be around 5'8"ish. Can't see footwear, but Macca nearly always wears trainers and Turner wears dress shoes with a slight heel mostly. Hope the link works . . .

Locjk, 5'7" or 5'8"....Rob, can you upgrade Turner to 5'10" or 5'10.5"? He's also around the same height/taller than Miles Kane. Locjk. says on 3/Mar/08
How tall is jamie cook? 5' 7'' or alex height Anonymous says on 2/Mar/08
Ehm, I dunno, I think he looks a strong 5'10", perhaps 5'11" from these photos. First, here he is with fellow bandmate Matt Helders whose height I do not know, but he does seem like a relatively tall guy, probably around a strong 6'? Click Here Alex's heels are obviously larger, but how much I do not know. The two seem to be around the same height, so I am guessing Alex is not mucher shorter in reality. Second, here is a photo with the "6'3" and a bit" Mika and, I don't know, but Alex is not getting totally killed....look Click Here Granted, it's not the greatest photo, but it's the only one so sorry.... greg says on 2/Mar/08
I don't think he's much, if any, over 5'8". This is him with his girlfriend who's 5'8" and the second photo has them both on the same level with a similar heel - if anything Alex's are bigger:
Click Here Girl says on 30/Jan/08
I'd put Alex at around 5'9 1/2" because his girl Alexa is 5'8" and when she wears heels she's about an inch taller than him (she doesn't wear very high heels). Anonymous says on 28/Jan/08
Yeha, agreed to Matt and Nacks, possibly a weak 5'11", but I dunno for sure. Jamie seems about 5'7" or 5'8"? Not sure, Rob? Matt says on 23/Jan/08
Alex a strong 5'10".How tall is jamie cook? Nacks says on 23/Jan/08
Alex 5'10" . Does anyone know how tall Jamie is ? Anonymous says on 4/Jan/08
Yeah, he seems taller than 5'9.5". I would go anywhere from a strong 5'10" to 5'11.5" and he is only 20 or 21 years of age, I believe (?), so there is a good chance he has grown a slight amount since the Arctic Monkeys came into the spotlight. Does anyone know how tall Jamie is? 5'7" or 5'8"? Matt (drummer) seems Alex's height or slightly taller? I suppose close to 6' for him? Their new bass player (Nick) seems about Jamie's height. Question Rob, how did you get 5'9.5" to begin with? Is it just a guess or do you have concrete evidence?

I met him, I was standing on a bit of pavement abotut 3 inches high and I'd say he was about 1 inch below me. I'm 5'8" so I spose that'd put him at around 5'10"? Les says on 1/Jan/08
I've met him, he's either my height or a very negligible amount shorter and I'm 5'11" Anonymous says on 18/Dec/07
ive got foto of him frm glastobury with me,as i was local press and he looked shorter than i thought, we where standing on level wooden flooring in photo and he was dead same height as me and iam dead on 5ft8 to the mil. so 174cm at very very most. sopaz (Sheffield) says on 16/Nov/07
I'm taller than him, and i'm about 5'8... Matt from Sheffield says on 15/Nov/07
No way is he that tall.
I stood taller than him and I'm only about 5'7 Matt says on 14/Nov/07
he looks slightly shorter:S but i aint met him so i dno! wts matts, cookies nd nicks hight? Anonymous says on 21/Oct/07
if alex was standing up for most of the day (as at concerts), i reckon 5ft 9.5 sounds bang on. otherwise he might be bit over that on a good day Anna says on 16/Oct/07
Nice information Kzero, it actually helps to figure things out. If you could post the photo, it would be nice, at least in my opinion. But I just question that McCartney photo then because he looks very close in height, if not taller, and McCartney is listed as 5'10" as of now on this website - peak height being 5'11". And I'm guessing McCartney had a slight advantage, if I were to guess. And, yeah, that sounds about right for Nick and Ricky. And yes I've noticed they are a tall band. I wonder if Rob will ever get round to adding Nick and/or Ricky (?). And, just another point about ALex, if he is only 5'8"ish, that would make Jamie Cook about 5'5" or 5'6" and surely he is not that short? Did you meet him as well Kzero? Anyway, where did you meet these people (what event)? It sounds brilliant, whatever it was....just a concert or festival? Kzero says on 16/Oct/07
I've met Alex Turner, and we were both wearing Converse or similar shoes, and there's just no way he was an inch and a half taller than me. I'm 5-8 midmorning and this was laaaate at night, and my eyes were very nearly level with his. This was a few months ago, and I know he's young but I doubt he's grown.
and Re: Anna's Kaiser Chiefs question, Nick says he's about 6'2" and he did tower over me, and Ricky is taller than everyone says, at about 5'10-11, I'd say (have met both twice). Ricky just looks short, because he's in an insanely tall band. The guitarist and bassist must each be 6'4".
So yeah, Alex Turner is pretty tiny. I've got a photo, if you must have one. Anna says on 15/Oct/07
Well, is McCartney 5'9" or 5'10" nowadays? bloke says on 14/Oct/07
I can see it but it's difficult to see AT as he is obscured by Shirley Bassey! He looks smaller than McCartney and appears to be casually dressed. It seems likely that he is around the same height as McCartney but unlikely to be any taller, which probably would suggest that the height listed here is correct. Anna says on 10/Oct/07
OKay. I dunno quite what to do then....Rob, are you able to see it? It's working quite perfectly for me.... Evanna says on 10/Oct/07
Unusable = all I can see is a bunch of numbers and letters on a blank page. I've told you that Getty is a tricky one, even if you use tinyurl. It's always better (although maybe illegal) to copy a pic (or buy it! that's legal) and then link it via the image hosting websites. These links usually work. Anna says on 10/Oct/07
How is it unusable? You mean literally you cannot get it to show up or it's a crappy shot? And, yes, I was regarding the fact that Paul's peak height was 5'11" and has now lost an inch, and is thus 5'10" now. At least that is according to this site. And his posture looks fine to me, so I don't know what is wrong with my photo.... Evanna says on 10/Oct/07
Anna, your link is unusable, as usual. In any case, Macca is 64 now, he's lost at least one inch, possibly more, and nowadays his posture isn't great either. That's why Turner might appear taller. Anna says on 9/Oct/07
Here's the photo, I'm a dumb arse. Click Here Anna says on 9/Oct/07
Back to Alex Turner...I searched him on Getty Images and came up with some photos of him and Paul McCartney, who is listed here as 5'10". Although footwear is not seen, I am guessing that Paul was wearing dress shoes (given his attire) and Alex was wearing tennis shoes, which would mean he may have a small disadvantage. Alex looks to be a little behind Paul, yet looks about the same height/eye to eye, so I am guessing he may be more like a 5'10" or possibly 5'10.5"....could this be possible? Evanna says on 6/Oct/07
Anna I'm 5'8.25", I might even be 5'8.5" if I stretched properly; and I'm definitely close to 5'9" straight out of bed, but I do shrink considerably during the day. I can easily get away with saying 5'9", which I sometimes do :) Actually most of my friends think I'm 5'9" but only because they don't know their own exact heights either. Most people think they're taller than they actually are...
I don't think Rob will upgrade Emma Watson unless he's presented with some firm evidence, like a photo with Glenn. I'm sorry, but most of the "evidence" you tend to post really doesn't prove that Watson is any taller than 5'5". Legit 5'6" girls like Beyonce, Gwen Stefani or Jessica Alba can look really tall in heels. Watson never looks that tall, just average. As for Grint, I think he might be 5'8" flat, but not taller. Anyway I see no point in further arguing about their heights, hopefully Rob or someone else from this site will meet them soon, and then we'll have a clear picture.
And here's a "short" list of my favourite artists, in no particular order: AC/DC, Peppers, Bon Jovi, Manic Street Preachers, Amy Winehouse, Gorillaz, Ian Brown, REM (early stuff), Oasis (same thing), Robbie Williams, Primal Scream, The White Stripes, The Clash, B52s, The Smiths, Nirvana, Metallica, Faith No More, The Rolling Stones, U2, Tina Turner, Marvin Gaye, Bill Withers, Jackson 5, Stevie Wonder and MANY others!... Anna says on 4/Oct/07
Hey, I don't care if you don't agree, I just need Rob to upgrade asap. And as for Rupert, what is your opinion on him? 5'8"? And, that's quite cool. I play a bit of guitar, but not loads. And I actually play the violin as well, though not awfully seriously. And how tall are you? Because you always are saying 5'5" is average to short for a female (maybe it wasn't you, but someone was saying that) and it annoyed me slihgtly because 5'5" is not even that short for a girl. The average height is about 5'3" or 5'4" I believe...Anyway, what are some other bands and/or singers you are interested in? Evanna says on 4/Oct/07
100% correct, bloke.
As for me, Anna, my mum's and dad's families came from the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia, the two countries that don't exist anymore. I have Russian, German, Serbian, Montenegrian, Turkish, Bulgarian and Vlach roots - quite a mixture, innit? And I'm a proper musician, a classically trained pianist. But I listen to all sorts of music, not just Beethoven & co. Favourite band AC/DC, favourite song RHCP "Under the Bridge"... I used to play in a lot of bands, bass guitar and synth. But I gave up my r'n'r career after having a child (though I'm still active as a songwriter). Hope this satisfies your curiosity. Friends? :)
(Although I'll never say that Emma Watson is taller than 5'5"!) bloke says on 4/Oct/07
OT: Id be surprised if as much as 50% of the population of the City of Manchester were primarily of English descent, Greater Manchester perhaps. At the last census (2001) about 80% of the population was White/European but that figure was is probably much lower in reality and most White people in Manchester are of Irish origin. Anna says on 3/Oct/07
haha, honestly, the same as i've been saying. I'm 17 as of now, but turn 18 in a little over a month, am a female, am 5'3", but to be exact 5'2.5", and wear a size 6 in shoes. And my name is Anna! ah! okay?!?! and I'm not really into making friends on this site, however, we won't expand on that seeing as you don't really believe me my reasoning as to why I'm here, but I just could not pass up a comment like such on alex turner's page. He is amazing. Evanna says on 2/Oct/07
Anna didn't you say you weren't here to make friends? :) I promise I'll answer all your questions, but only if you reveal your true age, sex, height and shoe size (name is optional!) Anna says on 1/Oct/07
Evanna, what sort of musician are you? "btw I'm a musician too" I'm just curious. I'm quite interested in music. Arctic Monkeys and Oasis are probably my favourite bands, however, I listen to many...the British music scene is absolutely fantastic as of now....and, if not too invasive, what country are your family from? You said Eastern Europe, but specifically. I haven't got a terribly interesting ancestry (100% English), but nevertheless am proud to be so. Evanna says on 30/Sep/07
I'm a mudblood :) Evanna says on 30/Sep/07
Actually my family is from Eastern Europe, I don't have a single drop of British blood in me. But I guess that doesn't make me a minority, since 50% of people living in Manchester are of foreign descent. (In fact here in Hulme being white makes you a minority!) I just think that Manics are brilliant.
[Editor Rob: ah right, I do have irish family.] Evanna says on 30/Sep/07
Oh yeah. :) I used to go to all sorts of concerts/gigs/festivals when I was younger. That's how I met a lot of musicians, not just my locals (Btw I'm a musician too). But ever since I had a child and started my PhD, my leisure time has been terribly limited, actually nonexistent. I'll be seeing Happy Mondays in December, maybe Manics too (gotta support the Welsh!), and that's it.
[Editor Rob: Welsh roots eh? I thought you were Mancunian! The Manics are well worth seeing. The last welsh 'Singers' I spoke to were erm, Hyperactive + Lisa from Steps :P] Evanna says on 29/Sep/07
Boyzone?! Honestly, Rob, how could you?!...
[Editor Rob: gotta support the Irish and all that ;)] Anna says on 28/Sep/07
Both are quite attractive and brilliant musicians. Anyway, just curious, what type of music do you listen to, Rob, this type? And, just wondering, do you think you will add either Ricky Wilson or Nick Hodgson of the Kaiser Chiefs?
[Editor Rob: if I could find good comparisons I might.
Here's a glimpse of some concerts I've been to in the past: Here I really don't follow many bands, I just listen to music that sounds good to me, regardless of who the singer or band or genre is. Except Rap though. Give me a cheeky girls song over a tupac 'song' any day of the year.] Anna says on 28/Sep/07
True to you word Rob, I like that. How tall do you reckon Jamie Cook (Monkey guitarist) is? I'd say 5'7" or 5'8" seeing as he is a few inches shorter than Alex....
[Editor Rob: yes the guitar guy looks a few inches shorter.] JK says on 23/Sep/07
I thought he around 5'11'' |
