I am short (5 even) and it used to bother me more. I met Brittany,actually saw her on different occasions, and she is ,oh how very sad I have to say, was a great person. What I was going to say is many actors and actresses are shorter than they seem on screen,including Brittany.5'2" would be about right. This fact,along with just getting older and accepting myself more has made me feel better about my height. I have been told I'm about the same size as Penelope Cruz and most people think she super sexy. So short or tall confidence is most Important.
About Brittany, she was tiny,not a chance that she weighed as much as 115 as has been reported somewhere.I'm 104 lbs. and she was quite a bit thinner and a couple sizes smaller than myself.Really,and yes it seemed to border a unhealthy weight. And very nice to all she met.She will be missed.

I worked with her not too long ago.I would not think she was over 5'2 or so.
Sometimes it is so hard to tell when someone wears very high heels all the time.
I dont think I saw her with heels that were not at least 4 inches high.
And then when you are shot not showing your feet or with long pants on that cover your high heels you seem taller.
What I am totally stumped on(no pun intended) is her weight that has been mentioned attributed to the autopsy. Several months ago she was very thin
and being a small person myself,I would have bet any thing she could not have weighed over 100 lbs. In the pictures taken right before her death,I was a little stunned,because she appeared much thinner than several months ago.
I cant help but think that 115lbs is inaccurate.
At times Brittany wasn't well and I (we) were concerned.
She was gracious and kind to Crew and fans on set.
I dont want to say to much,because I hate speculation,
and in no way was I privy to any inside info or anything like it.
But I have eyes ears and instincts, and something seemed not right.
How I wish I would have been wrong. josh says on 5/Jan/10
i think 5'2.5 was accurate for her because in clueless she didn't seemed that much shorter than alicia silverstone (5'5). rip brittany murphy it is too bad somebody that talented like her had to pass away so young. Melanie says on 30/Dec/09
I am 5'2" and think that the autopsy would be correct in declaring her height at 5'3"! She had a small frame and was thin and that always makes a person appear taller than you would imagine. I know...people always think I'm at least 5'4" or 5'5"....so yeah, I don't think the coroner would give inaccurate information folks....She was the right weight for her height. For ever inch after 5 feet you add 5 pounds and that is the target weight the person should aim for...my doc told me this years ago...She was very beautiful, young, vivacious, and talented! I wish she didn't have to leave us so soon : ) It's scary when someone close to your own age dies...I just turned 33 and am freaked out because I grew up loving "Clueless", "Dont Say a Word", "Girl Interrupted", "Little Black Book", "8 Mile", "Just Married", and loved that she played the voice of Luann on "King of the Hill"! I know she's done more movies and began singing. I guess she didn't think people would take her singing very seriously, but the guy she sang with couldn't say enough about how great her voice actually was! I think she made a movie coming out in 2010:) Brittany you will forever be remembered!!!! <3 Anon says on 27/Dec/09
I would have said she was taller than this. But still so sad. I love her, she's my favourite. Source says on 25/Dec/09
According to the autopsy she was 5'3 and 115pounds. rainar says on 21/Dec/09
dammn... she was very pretty and too young .. MD says on 21/Dec/09
This really shocked me, to say the least. A lot of folks are said to be the nicest after they die, but in Brittany's case, it really seemed true. Just watching her made you smile, whether it was in movies or on the talk shoes. Very real, very genuine; a life gone far too soon. Hopefully, it was simply her time and not the result of anything else. Jacob says on 21/Dec/09
Can't believe she's dead... she was great in 'Girl Interrupted', when i first saw that film in 1999.

Doesn`t matter how tall she was. She was and will always be amazing. R.I.P DirtyShoes says on 21/Dec/09
RIP Brittany Murphy JoshJ says on 20/Dec/09
rest in piece ms murphy Scott says on 20/Nov/09
I met her on the set of Don't say a word in Toronto. This girl is a tiny, 5 footer. 5'1 at max but no more than that for sure. Neil says on 20/Apr/09
She looks to me like 5' to 5'1". 5'3" definitely seems to be an exaggeration. kayla says on 7/Aug/08
i think she's shorter than 5'2". i saw her on 8 mile with eminem(listed 5'8 here but i think he's 5'7") and she's about on eminem's nose while she's already in 4" high heels.i'll give her 5foot. Taylor says on 24/Aug/07
Yea I knew Brittany Murphy couldn't be too tall because she's so little. Very petite girl. I'd say she's no taller than 5'2 but I doubt she's 5'3. Aiden says on 10/Jul/07
wow... i just finished watching 'Uptown Girls' and i thought she was at least.... 5'6... can't believe she's only 5'2..! joe says on 10/May/07
come on no way is she bigger than 5.2 ! In just married Ashton .K (whos 6.2) towers way way over her, even with 4 inch boots ! scott says on 24/Mar/07
i was an extra for her movie with michael douglas, "don't way a word". this girl is TINY. i'd thought she was a teen because she was so little. she is not taller than 5ft for sure without heels Beauty says on 17/Jan/07
At first brittany is standing in front of the picture with holly.. which makes holly taller.. if the were standing besides each other.. and secondly you don't see their heels... so you don't know if either of them are wearing heels..or perhaps.. if brittanys heels are taller than holly's..
find another pictures my friend.. you couldn't caunt on that one... MMS says on 13/Oct/06
Check this out she looks 1" taller than Holly... Click Here MMS says on 11/Oct/06
Ok, in the picture from "MM" the heel on the shoes looks like a "kitten" heel which is like 1" to 1/2" so she could be a full 5'3" and Gleen did meet her and he said she is 5'3". :)

Brittany Murphy (2" heel) and Queen Latifah (5'9" with sneakers)

She definitely not a 5'3" Nat says on 22/Jun/06
Maybe 5'3"ish with heels on? Her body looks too tiny for 5'3" barefoot. I'm 5'3" and my best friend is 5'8". The difference between Glenn (5'8") and Brittany is much more noticeable that my friend and I. Glenn says on 20/Jan/06
sweet girl! CoolJ says on 18/Jan/06
Glenn is big pimping.
5'3 always looked too big for her...
Glenn says on 17/Jan/06
does this one look faked too lawrence? she was 5-3. CelebHeights Editor says on 15/Jan/06
Glenn looks like he's got a big lean, but I thought this was a younger 'paula abdul' in the pic added here ;) theheightguru says on 12/Nov/05
Here she is with Kathy Bates, who is listed here at 5'3. Granted, it isn't a full length shot, but Brittany appears to be standing straight while Kathy is leaning back. If Brittany is a legitimate 5'3, why does she look the same height as Kathy in that pic? I'm pretty sure Brittany isn't wearing flats...
gladrunn says on 25/Oct/05
I can say for sure she's at least 5'3: once i met her at a party, i was with my mom, who is 5'2, and, even if my mom weared 3 inches heels and brittany taller ones, she towered my mother by at least 5 inches CoolJ says on 7/Sep/05
Judging from J's pic, 5'3 does seem mighty generous. I'm thinking 5'2ish at the most. mcfan says on 7/Sep/05
Weren't her and Holly Hunter (5'2) the same height? smoothadora says on 13/Aug/05
but have you seen her in the film "Spun"? she is wearing highish heels throughout but she looks as though she'd be taller than 5'3. |
