I'm about 6 feet tall in heels. I usually wear four-to-five inch heels. I'm not really that tall. In flats I certainly don't look that tall. I'm really a little thing.
I was doing a lot of body building in the Eighties, which I don't do any more because I really messed up my joints. Now I've rediscovered hula hooping from my childhood.
I'm 5ft 10 1/2in tall and was teased at school for being so skinny, so I'm glad I've finally been able to put a bit of weight on and be more curvy.

I've seen her recently, from 2018-2021, next to other people on talk shows and she is either 5' 5",
tall or has the LARGEST head even seen

Dolph is still fond of her but said his time with her was C*R*A*Z*Y* haha. Oddly her parents were very conservative, her dad was a preacher!! She is about as wild as it gets. Only guys of Dolph and Sven Ole Thorsen's size were hardy enough for her LOL. Click Here wow looks short there with big Arnie.

Wishing this striking model, actress and singer a fantastic Birthday!
She came over as taller to me than 5ft8 on the big screen. It must have been her personality!

I thought she was really tall when I was a kid, but watching A View to Kill again about a decade ago, I noticed she was noticeably shorter than 6 foot Christopher Walken. Grace more or less admitted she was no more than 5'8" in an interview published on 7/15/84 in Asbury Park Press
"I'm about six feet tall in heels," she said. "I usually wear four-to-five-inch heels. I'm not really that tall. In flats I certainly don't look that tall. I'm really a little thing."

Yes, seeing her in interviews she looks about 6 ft in big heels, certainly not 5'10.5! The legs are deceptive though.

She came to a club I was working at in the middle of the day. I rushed out of the dj booth and there she was. I nearly knocked on her butt when I ran into her. She is short. Very short. I'd say 5'4". I am 5'11 1/2z'. My first reaction, tho silent, was, 'wow, you are short'.

Firstly, 5 ft 4 isn't 'short. Very short.' for a woman. Secondly, she's clearly taller than this. I doubt you've met her lah.

5"8 women can appear around 5"9-10 on screen. There's NO WAY she could even make it as a catalogue model if she was 5"4 as some on here are claiming.

She's only 5ft8?
I could've sworn she was like 5ft11 or so in A View To A Kill. Saw eye-to-eye with Christopher Walken

Also explains why Dolph could rest his chin on her head, he looked near 9 inches taller.

Grace was 173 cm tall (5'8). That's what was written on her modelling card when she was a model in Paris in the 70's (Click Here)

She couldn't be taller than 5'6 or 5'7. Next to Christopher Walken and Roger Moore in A View to a Kill in 1985, she didn't look any taller. Both men towered over her, even when she wore high heels. Maybe in platforms at Studio 54 she looked 5'10 but she wasn't. She actually has a petite frame.

She was at most 5'9" as I could see from having a drink next to her at a bar in Paris Ile Saint Louis back in the late 80's. She stood a few inches shorter than me (@ 5'10")

I thought her peak height was 5'11, but now I think her peak height might of been 5'9. I remember one of the actor from "View to a Kill", before he first met her, he thought she was going to be this extra tall Amazonian woman, but after meeting her realized she was not.

She actually looks like 6 ft 2 here and an Amazonian. I suspect she's in massive heels and that tailor at her side is a little dwarf of 5'2".

I am surprised she is only 5'8" I always used to think she was around the 6ft mark.

I've seen her original model portfolio from the 70's, and she's exactly 5'10½".

I am constantly amazed to hear Grace described as "amazonian". I've stood next the lady herself - when she was barefooted. I'm 5'8", and she was well below my height. She's no more than 5'3"/4" - trust me. It's because she's so slim boned that she looks tall in full-length photos.

I met her during summer '01. She was 2-3" taller than my 5'7" friend (who was playing in her band). An imposing-looking lady, but very cool. So I could be wrong, but I really think she is closer to 5'10".

Editor Rob I think she's lost height in fact. Recent pics I don't think she's that tall, but in Conan, I didn't think she looked more than 5ft 9
