If Mike Myers already claimed his height as 5'7 1/2" on his CelebHeights site then Hurley is at least 5'8" because there was a short scene in Austin Powers where both were wearing normal shoes. And there were scenes where Hurley looked almost 3 inches taller than Myers with high heels. Hurley is really at least 5'8". Maybe she could hit 5'9" out of bed and she measured herself on that time.

anonymous says on 22/Nov/08
If she is half an inch taller than mike meyers than she is 172cm. In every she wears at least 4 inch heels maybe even higher heels. I still think she's 170cm and is a hot 44 year old. Still love the magnum ad.

Big King says on 17/Nov/08
Jake, please watch the first Austin Powers part and you will see that there is a seen where the kung fu man tosses Hurley's and Myers' heads together. There Hurley doesn't wear any heels and she looks a half inch taller than Myers.

Jake says on 16/Nov/08
Big King,
Are you serious when you say that Hurley wasn't wearing any heels beside Fraser in Bedazzled? Are you kidding me? She wore the highest of heels throughout the movie - which was part of her sexy devil package. And then again, you keep comparing Hurley w/o heels to Mike Myers, when there is NO scene in Austin Powers where she wasn't wearing heels! Same with Bedazzled - there is no need for you to get so desperate. So, calm down - Piers is right that Hurley looks much, much shorter than Eva Herzigova in latest pictures; you can disagree, but that doesn't make other people insane.

And your whole assumption is based on the fact that somehow Hurley can't be of average height. Well, 5'6" is a little above average and all evidence supports that measurement. Your "evidence" on the other hand is mostly just wishful thinking - I bet you can't produce a single picture of Hurley in Austin powers or Bedazzled w/o heels. I rest my case.

anonymous says on 11/Nov/08
I would say she's a short looking 170cm. She's hot though. Love that magnum ad. Hot for a 44yr old.

littlesue says on 9/Nov/08
Well a 5ft 5 woman in 4 or 5 inch heels would never look tiny!! The paper I read it in is the Daily Mirror, it could have been a typo error or maybe she said 5ft 9 and they heard it for 5ft 9 lol!!

Big King says on 7/Nov/08
Are you completely insane or what?! Liz does never look tiny! I told ya that she's above average female height. Also your 5'5" meaning is a nonsense. Where is the evidence that you read 5'5"?!

Piers says on 6/Nov/08
Take a look at recent pics on Getty images with Eva Herzigova. She looks tiny!!!

littlesue says on 6/Nov/08
I was looking through some old papers from the early 90's at my Nan's house, she was giving an interview for the TV programme Christabel and she states her height as 5ft 5

Big King says on 5/Nov/08
Otherwise Hurley would have an average female height if she would be really under 5'7" but she's mostly listed at 5'9" and less sources say that she's at 5'8". So if Hurley already claimed 5'8" then she's that tall and nothing under. Due to her above average height I think that she's at least 5'8", more like 5'8 1/2". That Hugh Grant could be near 6'. Also 5'7 1/2" is definitely a nonsense for Hurley because she looked about 6" shorter than Fraser in Bedazzled. And also beside Fraser she didn't wear high heels. And in Austin Powers Liz appears 2 1/2" taller than 5'7 1/2" Mike Myers. Without heels, Hurley seems at least a half inch taller than Myers. So these evidences are clear that Hurley isn't under 5'8". Rob, you can leave 5'7 1/2" or you can change it to 5'8". End of discussion.

C. says on 2/Nov/08
No way is she 5'9" (are you kidding me?). She's 5'6"-ish tops. Wears the largest heels imaginable.

This woman seriously needs to be downgraded.

Jake says on 29/Oct/08
Rob, why the fuss about downgrading Hurley's height? Hurley was being self-mocking on The Human Face, that was the whole shtick of the show. She did that throughout the show - sort of making fun of herself, her beauty and to an extent her (and other celebs') vanity. Even if she was being serious, why would you take her word over what almost every piece of evidence and record suggests? Grazia listed her at 5'6.5" and Cleese certainly got his number from some record after his producers researched because he was reading from the script (Hurley probably was too). As for those comparing Mike Myers and Hurley: why are they forgetting Hurley was wearing high heels throughout the film.

Hurley was never a runway model. And she has herself stated a hundred times that she owns no flat shoes - that in itself tells you that she is very height conscious and probably is prone to lying about it (even shorties like Reese Witherspoon and others are often seen in flats in pap photos). She also told the NYTimes that how she isn't very tall like most models and that is why women are not intimidated by her and instead like her. A 5'8" women would not be making such a claim.

Look at this photo of her with Grant, where she is wearing heels and looks so much shorter than grant:
Click Here

More of Grant and her:

Grant is a solid 5'11" but usually never stands straight and Hurley, even in the highest heels and a very straight posture, never caught up to him. A 5'7.5" person would have no problem doing that. The truth is that Hurley has never - and that is NEVER - appeared in public (even in pap shots outside her house) in flat shoes or even in short heels, so she can get away with claiming that she is closer to 5ft 8.

Further proof is this picture of Hurley and Cherie Blair:
Click Here
Body shot: Click Here

Cherie's on-the-record height is 5'4" and even if both she and hurley are wearing equal length heels (which is very unlikely since Cherie is much heavier and is never seen in heels as high as Hurley's), does the height difference between them look anywhere close to 4" to anyone? It looks more like 1.5-2 in.

You have the last word but the truth is evident in so many pictures and the records produced by magazines. Hurley has an awesome body frame, curvy yet pencil thin and has never been spotted without her minimum 3-4in. heels, which makes her appear taller constantly. It is time to seriously change her height to 5ft 6in. for the sake of honesty.

She's hot but let's be fair Mr. Editor ;)

Big King says on 23/Oct/08
Come on, Liz isn't short! Her height can be described as above average. She also looked a half inch taller than 5'7 1/2" Mike Myers in Austin Powers.

anonymous says on 23/Oct/08
I like the magnum ad with elizabeth hurley. I thought she was short but now I don't think she's taller than 170cm. She always looks stubby.

Big King says on 20/Oct/08
Beside 6'3" Brendan Fraser she seemed short but for a woman she looks pretty big. She's something between 5'8" and 5'9". When I'm in a good mood, I'm saying that Hurley is 5'9". Liz Hurley is so hot, I can't get it!!!

anonymous says on 16/Oct/08
I watched bedazzled and she seems short even with heels on. I would say she's 5 foot 7 max. No taller. She seems stubby. No offence to her. In a red carpet appearance she was same height as pamela anderson. Both with heels on and pamela anderson is short. She's hot though for a 43 year old.

Big King says on 3/Oct/08
Liz' height is above average. So I think that she's not under 5'8".

Big King says on 21/Sep/08
5'6" is ridiculous you joker! Liz looks tall for a woman. If she already was slightly taller than Mike Myers in Austin Powers who stated his height as 5'7 1/2", then Liz is at least 5'8".

Fanatic says on 20/Sep/08
No way is she 5'7. She looks like 5'6 to me and no more.

Big King says on 20/Sep/08
Tom, keep dreaming! Anything under 5'8" is ridiculous for Liz!

Tom says on 19/Sep/08
She's 5'5" at most 5'6"
She has short legs, on the link below there is a picture of her with Trinny Woodall who is 5'9", both have high heels on.

Big King says on 15/Sep/08
I could agree with 5'9". I would say she's more 5'8 1/2" but 5'7 1/2" is definitely underestimated!

Anonymous says on 10/Sep/08
I agree. She appears to be tall. I figured at least 5'9" 1/2. Exquisite woman nonetheless.

Big King says on 7/Sep/08
I mean, she was slightly taller than Mike Myers in Austin Powers.

Big King says on 4/Sep/08
Hurley appears to be tall for a woman, don't underestimate her height although other women are taller than her most of the photos. Hurley is 5'8" and that's that! 5'8 1/2" maybe. Remember, she was slightly taller in Austin Powers and in Austin Powers she appeared tall.

joe II says on 4/Sep/08
king, didnt you notice her heels in bedazzled?

steve says on 1/Sep/08
Hurley never wears shoes with less than 4 inch heels (you can tell by the fact that her feet are almost straight up) and she still gets towered over by other women. On gettyimages, look up Elle Macpherson (6 feet, but always wears flats) and 5 foot 11 Eva Herzigova. Elle in flats is still 2-3 inches taller than Hurley in heels and Elle in heels is at least 6 inches taller. Hurley and Eva both in heels, Hurley comes up to her nose. She is AT MOST 5 feet 6.

Daii says on 8/Aug/08
She is one hot woman. Looks the above height!

brapp says on 1/Aug/08
5'6" MAX

Saw a picture of her with Gwyneth Paltrow. Liz was wearing platform shoes about 3 or 4cm higher than Gwyneth's and Liz was still 3 inches shorter!

"She would never have made it in high fashion at this height"

King says on 6/Jun/08
Don't be stupid guys, 5'6" is a big bull****! In Bedazzled, she only looked five inches shorter than Fraser who is a good 6'3". Hurley is 5'9". I would also agree if you would give her 5'8 1/2" but 5'9" is where I put the money on! She's so hot by the way!!!

Anonymous says on 9/Apr/08
She's probaly 5'6. in a pic with her and Gwenyth Paltrow, Gwen is towering over her by about 4 inches.

Jolietta says on 24/Mar/08
I think those claims about Hurley being 5'8 are false. She's often seen with Trinny Woodall from "what not to wear" and Trinny is at least 5'9 , Liz does appear to be at least 2 1/2 " shorter. I believe she's a strong 5'6

glenn says on 11/Mar/08
could be as low as 5-6.i believe that possible.she was my height in heels.

C. says on 10/Mar/08
I think she clearly lies about her height and just about everything. She probably is no more than 5'6", especially if someone guessed her at that height (there is no way a 5'8" woman would be guessed at 5'6", seriously).

Why grant is only 5"9' is that makes sense? He is defin 5"11'

She would have never made it in a high fashion at this height.
MF, Hurley was NEVER, EVER High Fashion!

mf says on 12/Oct/07
This is no way she's 5'7.5, let alone some of the lower figures being claimed here. She would have never made it in a high fashion at this height. Additionally, the very reliable Fashion Model Database lists her at 5'10". The lowest I would go with Hurley is 5'9".

BlondGirl says on 24/Jul/07
She brushed past me on her way into Selfridges, London, about 4 years ago. We were using the same door so we brushed shoulder to shoulder, although it was brief. I am a truthful 5-4 - measured myself a LOT, using the electronic thing at the gym - and I was wearing one-inch heels. I know because I had two pairs of the same shoes I wore ALL the time around the time I saw her. She wasn't that much taller than me, only an inch and a half at most, maybe an inch. Of course, I don't know what shoes she was wearing. In pap pics she is often wearing skinny jeans and flats around town, so if she was in flats that would make her 5 6.5 at the most. I just know she wasn't that much taller than me when she brushed past and I know I'm no taller than 5-4, so I reckon anything over 5-6 is stretching it.

Rut says on 19/Jun/07
Cleese said 'about five ft. seven'.

Kathryn says on 14/Jun/07
in a pic with Hugh Grant on i m d b she definately looks 5 cm smaller than him. AND she has on 2 inch heels. so this height is most accurate. a little taller than 5'7''.

irshgrl500 says on 2/May/07
"5'7" Model WANTS Desperately to GROW TALLER."

NOT 5'9". Ms Hurley is in a photo on the Internet Movie Database, under "Elizabeth Hurley" next to 5'7" Rosario Dawson. Hurley is MAYBE 1/2" taler than Dawson.

Liz should really be billed as the "Shrimpy model". LOL!

irshgrl500 says on 2/May/07
To Anonymous 4/Aug/06, I agree, Hurley CANNOT be 5'8", either. Those pics you submitted of Grant and Hurley shows Hurley is HEELS and Grant is supposedly 5'11". If Hurley were the actual 5'9" she claims, she would be the same height as Grant in the photos. She looks to be about 1-2" shorter. I say she's 5'7".

5'5 or 5'6 estimates are ridiculous. She was a model and you have to be at least 5'7 for that.

Actually, you have to be around 5'8" or 5'9", at the very least to be a Print or Runway model. Hurley was NEVER either. She became the face for Este Lauder and prior to that had done some relevant work, in print.
Hurley thinks she was some BIG TIME Supermodel. She is and WAS VERY good at self-promotion!

5ft7.5inches is correct, maybe even 5ft 8. The proof is that a few months ago Hello magazine published photos of Liz Hurley's visit to Pakistan. She was shown in several photos barefoot with Imran Khan and Arun Nair. Imran who is easily min 5ft 11" or 6ft was max 4" taller than Liz and no way did Liz look 5ft 5 or 5ft 6. I dont have access to those photos but clearly she was around 5ft 8

Anonymous says on 5/Sep/06
She is just as tall as Mike Myers when she is in three plus inch shoes. (Watch Austin Powers, nemely the scenes where they are in the silver space-type outfits). He really is 5'6-7" so she cannot be taller than 5'5'. Not possible.

Anonymous says on 4/Aug/06
I believe the 5-5/5'6 estimate. Though I was really fooled. I thought for sure 5'8. But then might have to look at Grant's height again. He doesn't appear to be more than a few inches taller. Not the best pic but anyway: Click Here

In one comedy movie she has played with Matthew Perry(from Friends). She looks 1 inch shorter than him with wearing really high boots.He was wearing flat shoes. If he is barefoot 182 ,he is 185 with shoes,i think. 10 cm heels advantage+3 cm shortage make her a least 172.(5'8)

I think Liz is more like 2 inches shorter. Her dark hair disappears in the picture by Gwyneth. And if you find the top of her head, Gwyn is only 1-2" taller (and Gwyneth is wearing huge boots wheras Hurley is in smallish heels. I think that Gwyneth is more like 5'7", having seen her several times in person, and that Hurley is about 5'5.5".

In The 2001 BBC documentary, 'crets of The Human Face', episode 3 (i think), John Cleese says that Hurley is 5'6" ... to which she corrects him to 5'8". It's scripted dialogued, and perhaps is a subtle joke about how stars (and people) exagerrate their height.

I believe the 5'6" is correct. With largeish heels this would make her stand at 5'8/5'9, which qualifies the 2-3 inch height difference between her and Hugh Grant.

Britpop says on 13/Dec/05
5'7.5 is still infalted. This is a 5'5.5. That is still tall with heels. However, there is very little evidence tat she is close to 5'7". I love liz andt I believe she is 5'5 only.
