How tall is Donny Osmond

5ft 8 (172.7 cm)

American Singer. When he was interviewing Gabrielle Reece' he said "I'm 5 7 on a good day" but he might have been playing that down a bit or shocked at her height because in Daily mail 2004 he also said "I'd love to be 5ft 10. I'm only 5ft 9in on a good day. If I could wear high heels I would" and in 2017 also said "I am 5ft 9in and weigh about 11 ½st (163 pounds)"

I literally ran into him at the LA airport years ago and was shocked at how short he was - I agree "I'm 5'7" on a good day"

Oh, we must have Jimmy Osmond, Rob! He’s so full of personality and he’s on my TV right now on Family Fortunes. He is such a genuine guy and comparing him to Vernon Kaye, I’d say he’s at least 5ft11.

I remember the days when Donny was on all my girlfriends’ walls! I did like him very much, but I was already teetering on the heavier side of rock music by that time!

Five nine. 😀👍

Ron, is 172cm or 174cm likelier for Donny?

A strong 5ft8 is likely...definitely not 5ft7

5-9 next to me 30 years ago.

@ kathy - He might have been once, but now he is much nearer the 5ft8 mark now!

However, I maintain my 5ft8.25.
kathy said on 23/Feb/18
He is 5'10"

If I remember correctly, Donny
was as much as 5ft10 at his optimum height, but that was according to my teenage magazines, and they might have puffed up their heights slightly! Genuine and lovely person, so I doubt if he'd have done something that shallow!

Of course, he will be less now as he is approaching 60, though
there is no way he looks it! I will settle for 5ft8.25.

5ft8 max I'd say though he said he was 5ft9. Probably 5ft9-10 when he was younger, but he's 50+ now and we all shrink a bit as we age. Now he's probably 5ft8 max

Osmond has always been an entertainer that wears 1.5 - 2 inch heels. Based on his appearances on television, and the fact that he is nearly 60 years old, I would estimate his height at 5'7.5".

I have met him a few times and in the pictures I have we are the same height. I am 5'7
Victoria Chang said on 8/Mar/13
I got the correct answer today. Donny Osmond is five feet ten inches tall.
Victoria Chang said on 11/Feb/13
I think Donny is five feet nine inches, he is taller than Andy Gibb, if Andy Gibb was five eight, then Donny should be taller than five eight.

Met him a couple of times at church stuff he is about 5ft 8 I would say and had perfectly ordinary shoes on him. He is a good man, and very kind.I didnt think anything strange about his hair either, just a good head of hair which plenty of men doo have. Most of his brothers are the same.

He is about 5'7 and has a small frame and very handsome as well

My daughter, who is 5'10" was walking ahead of her party in Vegas a couple of years ago, and walked into him. She didn't immediately catch on who he was (age gap showing between her and our generation), but he was very nice about it. Small, but not diminuative. About 5'7"-scraping 5'8" according to her, but she didn't catch his footwear. She was wearing flats at the time.

I knew him in the 70s in Utah. I am 6 feet tall and estimate him at 5'6.

If you watch him with Sanjaya here:Click Here
They look about the same height.
Brah said on 19/Feb/08
Rob, you should downgrade this guy. He was a good deal shorter than Sanjaya Malakar (who is 5'9" and looked it next to Leno) on the Tonight Show.

He was just on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and next to a 5'9" American Idol reject Sanjaya Malakar, he looked a full inch or more shorter. 5'8" is the very top of the scale for him, and possibly shorter than that. He really did look tiny with Jay standing near by.

His wax figure, at the old "Movieland Wax Museum(Buena Park)," looked 5'7".
DP said on 1/Jul/06
Based on all the videos and pics, I'm going to say he's close to 5'9" but a bit off. His quip about being "5'-7" on a good day" was said just in jest. We also have to remember that he's nearing 50 years old believe it or not so I'm sure he's starting to lose height to age. I don't question he was a bit taller back in the Donnie and Marie show but he's lost at least a 1/2 inch since those days.
J. said on 20/Jun/06
Wow, that previous video clip is the smoking gun! So, yeah, Osmond has now been 'outted' as a definite lifts man! And to think he's been listed as 5'10" all these years ...
Lafrich said on 19/Jun/06
In this video (about 1:10 seconds into it), he says he is 5"7 on a good day!

I thought he was 5'9 at the most. Tom Jones was like two inches taller than him.
MD said on 27/Apr/06
If you give Ronan Keating 5'8" (though most are pointing shorter), than he very well could be that height:

So, either Ronan needs a downgrade or Donnie is 5'10"
