Hayden Panettiere Height
Hayden Panettiere height: 5 ft 0.25 in (153 cm)

US Actress from tv show Heroes. A daily mail article described her 5ft 2, somebody also saying she claimed that height, but she isn't, I'd guess somewhere near 5ft and 5ft 1/2 inch.

She had these larger heels at the London Film Con with me which give her about 2.5 inches more than my sneaker.


5ft 8 Rob and Hayden

Lol wth Drew, you are a complete psycho. Hayden all the way !!!
Matthew says on 24/Jul/10
Wtf. Ewww, Vanessa Hudgens is pretty, but compared to Hayden, VANESSA IS UGLY! Hayden is just absolutely beautiful, OK?! And my MOM is taller than Vanessa, what difference does it make?!?!?!?!?!!!!
Drew says on 24/Jul/10
I think Rob got Vanessa's height right at 5'1-5'2. :)

Drew,

Those photos are from last year's Neutrogena event and it has been shown that Vanessa's shoes have a relatively large platform on them while Hayden's heels are flat. Here, take a look:

The prior year they were both wearing flat heels, and Hayden is taller:

What many don't realize is that Vanessa not only wears heels, but she typically wears heels with a platform on them as well. That adds another inch, at least.
Mari says on 23/Jul/10
Drew , you are totally right ! So then, How tall is Vanessa hudgens ?
Drew says on 21/Jul/10
Both their legs were bent in that photo, and Hayden's body is not bent - in fact, look at how her shoulders are pushed back and straight. Her body is just naturally rounder and bulkier, whereas Vanessa is more erect, but her posture is actually good in that picture. You can also start comparing their body part lengths - Vanessa has longer calves, her knee-hip length is longer than Hayden's, her shoulder is higher up than Hayden's, and her neck is longer than Hayden's too. Even if Hayden were to tilt her head back - what, 8 degrees? - to the vertical, it won't make much of a difference.
Plus, there's the fact that the floor is still not horizontal in that photo, making Vanessa seem shorter than she actually is. This photo set doesn't tell much, actually. For some reason, the photographer angled almost every single photo in this set. Imagine a horizontal line in the photos and note the angle of deviance.

Still not convinced? Here:

Their heels are relatively the same, and Vanessa has her head down in all the pictures. In the second picture, not only is her head down while Hayden raised her head all the way up, the ground is also sloping upwards to the left (where Hayden is standing), and Vanessa's legs are more bent than Hayden's.

You may have noticed that her hips are higher up for the first two, and no, she's not standing on a box. As we remember from this (Click Here) picture, Hayden always had shorter legs than Vanessa.

Vanessa seems to bend her head for almost every single photo too, and she never stands straight.

Drew -

Clearly taller? Hayden's body is curved and bent in that photo, whereas Vanessa's is straight. And Hayden's head is tilted downward. Again, Vanessa's is straight up. Compare it to the other photos where both have equatable postures and you'll see Hayden is definitely taller.

Does it matter who's taller? It doesn't make them any less of a person. Hayden is still awesome beautiful <3
Drew says on 20/Jul/10

Um, no she's not? Click Here
Vanessa is clearly taller here.

When they were on the beach, note how Vanessa was always standing on a lower plane than Hayden. The ground was not horizontal.

See these photos. Whether they're barefoot or both wearing heels, Hayden is taller than Vanessa in all of the photos.

I Love Hayden Panettiere says on 14/Jul/10
@ Jamal, I have read a couple of negative comments saying that Hayden looked fat in pictures. Also it was for the people who believe that being "short" is a negative thing (either for Hayden or themselves) when it REALLY isn't. I was just giving facts. MY Hayden is so wonderful <3 =D. LOL jk, she isn't mine, I wish she was =C.
Jamal says on 13/Jul/10
@ I Love Hayden Panettiere, why are you being so defensive about Hayden, after reading your post i thought the posts below would be negative but thats not the case.

Anyway I think you girls are lucky regarding height, as you can look good whether you are small (like Hayden) avergage, tall and even amazonian. But if a guy is short they are undesireable and ugly. So Hayden it not at a disadvantage for being short.
I Love Hayden Panettiere says on 12/Jul/10
Mhm... She's 5ft of 5'1". Roughly within that range. So? Yes, I guess it's small, but is it really that much of a big deal? There are plenty of girls/women out there that are that height or smaller, even other celebrities. Does that give you the right to look down on someone?
Think about it, Hayden's... Perfect! She cannot be faulted whatsoever. So y'know, because the media/haters ALWAYS have to criticize celebs, all they can bad-mouth about is her height, because really, what else can the media/haters say?! I guess if the only down-side to her is her height, then that's pretty good, because height is unnecessary, thus nothing wrong with Hayden. What difference does it make? She's still beautiful, passionate about what she does, hard-working, enthusiastic, generous, thoughtful, and lastly the thing that she deserves being: She's rich. Why should she herself even be bothered about her height? She's got plenty of other things to focus on and has her all her life ahead of her. Just by saying "OMG Hayden Panettiere is a midget!" Really, is that such a big deal? Just because she's famous has she got to be tall? Height is unnecessary, there are plenty more things that are actually important to life.
OK, if you are still criticizing her, just think about yourself. How tall are you? Has it made a huge improvement in your life from being specifically that height? What have you achieved that is more impressive and successful than what Hayden has? (Starring roles in TV programmes/movies)
Do you doing anything for what you are passionate about? (She is passionate about animals, e.g. whales, and has also protested to have whales treated respectfully to such an extent that she has risked her life and and almost been arrested. She obviously doesn't do that just to give herself a good name, otherwise she wouldn't be willing to risk her own life or risk being arrested. She is definitely passionate about what she believes in, which is very very good). Lulz, I find it amazing that she's able to do all this extra work for the environment and animals ONTOP of other work, e.g. Learning and acting for scripts for TV programmes (Heroes, she starred in that), movies and events that she has to attend to. I'm sure there are many other types of work which I have not said as I am not aware of it. She probably makes most of her work look minor, when in reality it is difficult, thus making others not aware of the other work that she does. This clearly shows that she is very successful and that height is unnecessary.
And for her wearing heels? It is fashionable to wear heels. Is she not allowed to wear heels purely because she's 5ft/5'1"? That's silly. And anyway if she didn't, people would still criticize her, not only for her height, but for being "unfashionable". Especially to important events. In my personal opinion, I don't think it's unfashionable at all, but I'm sure people would say that it is. On the other hand I do understand the importance of wearing heels to important events. Most other celebrity women also wear heels (OBVIOUSLY), and if you didn't know that then you live under a rock.
Also there are plenty of haters out there, who have never even met Hayden or think badly on purely because of the voice of the media, or pictures (let me just tell you, if you have a low opinion of her because of pictures, you don't know what beautiful is).
And for the people that think she's fat? OK, well just picture a fat person in your head and then compare it with Hayden. Now what d'you think? For her height, she is an average weight. At least she's not a size zero like a lot of the Hollywood actors/singers/models. This shows she can take care of her health and not starve herself to death, and also this shows that lack of food is not the cause to her height. Some people naturally just don't grow as much as others, but as said before, this is unnecessary.
I have made my points blatantly clear to make you people reading this understand that she should not be criticized for stupid things, when in fact she's amazing for everything she stands for.
tall one says on 30/Jun/10
emmy why are you jealeous.i am a 5 11 girl and i know that boys say that small girls are cuteor what and i believe that too but tall girls have heart also.i mean when people say "wow you are tall" that is usually a compliment. Being tall is associated with being attractive. Not to say that shorter women are not attractive, there are many women who are petite and smoking.
Point is, there is nothing to be ashamed of if you are tall or short. Embrace what you have been blessed with.

I think it's rigth that she is 5 ft 0.25, cause I saw her on a pictur with Ashley Tisdale and it looks like she was about 10 cm taller than Hayden, so...
The Accurater says on 22/Apr/10
The 155 Cm so spot on for Hayden Panettiere, not more than that.

What a beutiful women. 153 cm seems about right.
Littlesue says on 16/Apr/10
I would say any actress, short, medium or tall would wear some sort of heel with a formal gown, just to walk a bit more elegantly, us women tend to waddle in flat shoes
Anonymous says on 15/Apr/10
Yes, because we all know how many short actresses wear flats with formal gowns.
Sara says on 14/Apr/10
@Anonymous , are you dumb? you cant even see the shoes! how could you possibly say that Hayden is taller?
Reetika says on 13/Apr/10
Is she realy 5ft0.25in?I heard that she is around 4ft11in.

blondie says on 30/Jan/10
okay people for one thing hayden isnt under 5' at all id say she is at least 5'1 maybe taller. and another thing im pretty sure she isnt 104 lbs. im pretty sure she is more in the range of 115 to 120 , maybe bigger, but certainly not 104 lbs.
Realme2008 says on 27/Jan/10
She's a little liar.Lol, she tries to state she's 5'2" in this article: Click Here

"I'm typically a very fiery person anyway, but I just feel like cute and blonde and little is just so one category and one thing and changing my hair color, I feel like I don't have to overcompensate so much for the fact that I don't like being called cute or anything like that -- especially being all 5-foot-2 of me," she told Us."
Anonymous says on 24/Jan/10
Her and Hillary Duff are the hottest 5 footers ever. For them I would make an exception and date/marry under 5'5"-5'6". <3

Im short too and im glad there are short actors and actresses out there. For us short people, it means we're not condemned to prejudices and dumb jokes forevver. It gives us some hope. :)

She'd be a total 8.5" shorter then Rob if she was barefoot. My guess is 5'0" and 5'0.5" in the morning.
Denise says on 7/Dec/09
I love the fact she's this short. I have the same height as her (I'm also a girl) and she is my rolemodel. Since I knew she is the same height as me, I really don't mind I'm short. (: God, I love Hayden.
madalena says on 21/Nov/09
she always looked at least 5'2 to me....
Anonymous says on 17/Nov/09
Vanessa had to have been in some tricky footwear. Hayden and Vanessa have appeared at several events together, and apart from this most recent one, Hayden has ALWAYS looked taller.
Heightgirl says on 16/Nov/09
Hayden was shorter than 5f2 Vanessa Hudgens. I realize that Vanessa was in 1" platforms, but when she was standing straight, she was about 3" taller and that makes Hayden 5f.
Kat says on 8/Nov/09
Click Here

Hayden's shoes here are similar in terms of heels to what Rob has posted, and if those shoes give 2.5 inches that makes Hayden 5'3ish, Quinto is probably 6'1.5 with those dress shoes, but that doesnt look like a 10.5 inch difference, more like 8 inches.

[Editor Rob: those heels will give nearer 3.5 than 2.5.]
Realme2008 says on 22/Oct/09
I think Hayden has really beautiful face,but her proportions are really bad. Her legs and arms make her look even shorter then she actually is. She's not proportioned well at all in my opinion.
Daily says on 7/Oct/09
She's tiny and the thing with Hayden is that she actually looks mega-tiny =D
Anonymous says on 4/Oct/09
I'm with Victorian -- Vanessa clearly has platforms on the soles of her heels, while Hayden's heels are flat. Go to Wireimage and look at all of the photos of the two of them together, in 90% of them Hayden is an inch or so taller.

155cm max

Richelia says on 12/May/09
i think Jeff is right,her weight is neither 87 nor 78 lbs.
she doesn't seems that thin, actually, i think she's quite fat in some ways.
so she may be 113 lbs.....

Richelia what are you saying? How in the world is Hayden fat? So you're saying 5'0" and 113 pounds is fat? It's far from being fat, it's perfectly healthy. People these days just seem to have got so obsessed with the whole anorexic look that when they see someone who is a healthy weight they think it's fat. It's ridiculous.

Anyway about her height. No way is this girl 5'2". She always looks very small. Like myself, I'm only 5'0" so we are pretty much the same height! Wish I was as beautiful as her though. Looks about 5 inches shorter than Rob in that picture. Take away the heels she was wearing and she'd be about 5'0". So this is a good listing here. :) :) :) :) :)
someone says on 14/Sep/09
i think she is taller than that .... on youtube they are videos with her and some other persons .... with different dresses and shoe and she don īt look for me so extremmly short anywhere .... on the ellen show on martha stewart, regis and kelly..... she donīt seem to be this short .... to me
Kayleigh says on 5/Sep/09
Ann,

Hunny you are only 15 years old.. Probably just getting into 10th grade or something?? I'm 25 years old and 5ft 1.8 inches but I was a cheerleader for 12yrs from age 6-18, and my whole team every year were smaller girls. When I turned 18 I started coaching cheerleading and trust me I know from seeing it you can wake up one day and be taller over night at that age, but from what I see height has nothing to do with not having a boyfriend, or being on a date. You need to get your security up there first before even thinking of dating. I've coached girls where they are the smallest girl on the team in the beginning of the season and by the end she's up there with the taller girls, High school teams, and younger. But trust me its fun being small because you have the advantage of putting on a pair of shoes that make you taller. If you were tall nothing you could do to make you shorter.

Ann: height is not the reason behind this "not-having-a-boyfriend-or-never-been-on-the-date" situation. u shouldn't let urself feel insecure just becoz u think u'r short.
Ann says on 22/Aug/09
I'm always worrying about my hight.. im' only 150cm and im' not so okay with it, but i do tell everyone that i am. I have never had a boyfriend or never even been on date. I'm 15 years old. I think.. well.. I've heard that i'm pretty and very nice person and all that, so i'm thinkin that could it be about my hight, that i haven't found enyone? Or is it just bad luck? I know i'm young but still.. Could it be? I feel quite insecure..
LaLaPo says on 16/Aug/09
the thing is, you can't compare girl's heights, because they wear heels- I'm 5 foot 2, and i ore heels at a party, which made me about 5 foot 5/6, and my mate had really high heels on, which made her about 5 foot 8. But when we took our heels off, she was a lot shorter than me, she must only be about 4'11 or 5'0, so it's very hard to compare girls heights.
Personally, I'd say Hayden was 5'1.
Anonymous says on 11/Aug/09
blonde1817 - I don't see a stair in the background. They are standing right next to tables -- why would they place tables and stairs just against a stairway?

Also, in the background, you can see a gentleman wearing a black suit. One of his feet is on the tan area of the ground (where Hayden is standing). The other foot is on the gray area (where Alexis is standing). His feet are level. They are standing on the same level, no trickery.
Capricorn7 says on 11/Aug/09
I'm 5"1! so we're pretty close!
norah says on 11/Aug/09
yeah she looks pretty short in heroes. im 159 cm tall(i dont use feet or inches) and where i come from thats pretty tall.
Isabela says on 30/Jul/09
Looks about right. 5"0 is a better description than 5"2. I'm about 4"10 and 1/2. So she's a few inches taller than me. Not sure what the average height is.
blonde1817 says on 28/Jul/09
I agree that body type/frame is most important...I'm 5' and have a small frame so I start to look chubby if I weigh over 100 lbs. Actually, I think my body type is a lot like Hayden's, except that i have more of an hourglass shape (she's a bit more square I think). I love Hayden because she shows that petite women can be sexy, not just cute!

Also, anon. mentioned that she towers over Alexis Dziena but if you look at the background of those pics I think there is a stair and Hayden is above Alexis. So they're prob the same height.
emmy says on 27/Jul/09
for me,i think she is small but she is still cute and pretty.i am 15 and 5'3.i hope i will grow an inch taller.at least 5'5-5'6 max when i reach the age of 17.my mother says so because she is a nurse.my mother is 5'1[156cm] while father is 5'8[173cm].i am an asian and can be considere as taller becaause the average age for girls here are 5'1[i think]....by the way,hayden is a pretty woman...
littlesue says on 23/Jul/09
Its all about build as well, I'm 4ft 11 but if I go under 8 stone I look awful because I have a large frame, about 8 stone 10 is my ideal.
lily says on 22/Jul/09
if jf's estimate's correct than i guess i should be ok with my bmi. i'm 5 and 1/2 by midday and i weigh 106 pounds. it's all about the body shape u've got, not how much u weigh...
jf says on 20/Jul/09
I'd estimate her at around 5'0" 104 pounds. She used to have a bit of "baby fat" but it seems like she's shed that. No way is she 5'2" come on, watch Bring it On 2. She is very tiny.
L says on 16/Jul/09
Ugh guys height has nothing to do with how much weight you lose is obvious or not! If you're small-framed & you lose 5lbs regardless of if you're 5'1" or 5'10" it still looks like alot. If you're large-framed it's harder to tell rather or not if you've lost weight. I know because I'm a woman thats 5'10" even with a small frame & when I lose 5-10lbs it's veeery noticable.
M4te says on 16/Jul/09
she definately needs an upgrade
Anonymous says on 10/Jul/09
Most certainly needs an upgrade. She practically towers over Alexis Dziena (who is listed as 5'1" here): Click Here both were wearing heels at that event -- check WireImage. She's also taller than Hilary Duff and Vanessa Hudgens, both of whom are listed as taller than her here.
kate says on 6/Jul/09
wtf? Since when does 113 pounds qualify as fat? It's so sad how ridiculous some of you act.
BD says on 23/Jun/09
I stood next to her at an event at the 2009 super bowl. She was wearing flats. 5'0'' on the dot seems accurate, maybe even a hair under. She is most certainly not 5'2''. I'm 5'8'' by the way.
Heightgirl says on 16/Jun/09
5f is the max that I would give Hayden and she looks 115 lbs. Boy those shoes are high and they had an inch of a hidden platform too so I bet they gave her an extra 4+ inches.
Katrina says on 3/Jun/09
Those heels she has on in the pic Rob posted seem like 4 inches so 5 feet seems to be an ok height for her
lily says on 12/May/09
Richelia: hayden and fat????

would u explain????
Richelia says on 12/May/09
i think Jeff is right,her weight is neither 87 nor 78 lbs.
she doesn't seems that thin, actually, i think she's quite fat in some ways.
so she may be 113 lbs.....
18and5'8'' says on 29/Apr/09
she's hot.....that's all i have to say, and that heroes is a great show...and she's hot lol
Alex says on 29/Apr/09
5'2 78lbs is def underweight. Even if shes naturally small framed and not anoerexic, its still very skinny.
lily says on 12/Apr/09
jeff i was not talking about hayden when i mentioned that weight. and i had it gotten wrong as well, so sorry for the oopsy. it was not 78, it was 87..
Jeff says on 12/Apr/09
if ur wondering wat Hayden's weight is, it is 113 lbs, not 78 lbs as noted below
natahsa12 says on 22/Mar/09
wow 5'1 and 78 lbs thats scary thin. but like i said, we are all shaped differently.
