Yeah, she definitely looks taller on TV & even on the covers of some the movies she's been in--anyone notice the DVD cover on "Blond Ambition"? It makes her legs look a lot longer (even though her legs are positioned behind her)

I wonder what 5'3" Jessica weighs now, 125...? she could be pushing 130 with those curves.

Anonymous says on 1/Feb/09
This is a rare photo of her without heels. Maybe her short legs make her appear shorter than she really is.

Wow she always seemed taller, like 5'7. Anyone else noticed how everyone looks taller on tv?

Jessica has nothing to worry about. Her legs aren't long but they aren't really short either. But she is wrong; she is not 5 foot 4.

Hey, runt, I believe Ali's 5'8'', here's a pic from a better angle. And note, though, that Ali is the queen of slouching-without-anybody-noticing. Click Here

runt says on 29/Oct/08
Hey Anonymous (4/Sep/08) are you sure Ali is 5'8" and not 5'7"? I believe that's Kelly Rowland on the left and she's only 5'7" and appears as tall as Ali. The camera angle is bad though.

anonymous2 says on 21/Oct/08
She looked short next to nick lachey. Nick lachey is about 175cm. In dukes of hazzard she was shorter than sean william scott by at least 20cm and she has heels on. I would say she's five foot 3 at most. She gets a lot of negative feedback from people but i don't think she's that stupid.

runt says on 17/Oct/08

And here she is with 5'.25" Eva Longoria

All 3 women are wearing heels obviously. But Jessica is closer to Eva than to Carrie.

Has anybody ever seen her without the heels/wedges? With Romo on a beach or something? She's all over from 5' 1" to her 5' 4" lie.

OK Rob, I take that "legitimate 5'3" statement back...in this article, Rachael Ray admits to being "5'3 on a good day"...that really means 5'2 - 5'2.5" I assume.

Therefore, Jessica Simpson is probably a little under 5'3".

People, look at this picture of her standing next to Nelly Furtado (5'2).

Wears wicked heels. Nobody can tell really. Good camera angles in all she does to make her taller.

Anah says on 31/Jul/08
5'2 is more realistic for her, although she could even be shorter than that. Her legs and arms are really short so I never thought she looked taller than 5'2 even with heels on.

Anonymous says on 30/Jul/08
she is arrogant...in a magazine recently, a bunch of celebs were quoted as saying what same sex celebs' bodies they admire/use for inspiration-jessica alba said jessica biel, biel said alba, and this moron simpson actually had the nerve to say herself! quote, "i bring a pic of myself from the dukes of hazzard move and say to my personal trainer-make me look like that". so conceited and really no reason 2 be.there are plenty of better looking faces and bodies-such as alba, biel, heidi klum, scarlett johanssen, rachel mcadams, vanessa marcil, cameron diaz, etc. she is not even all that, ms. simpson, and her ex is doing way better w/o her! she is short, around this height and heavy by nature-over 125, which is a lot of weight for a girl at this height. she needs to get over herself, her so called successful career is finished.

Men who feel inferior and lack confidence maybe like women a lot shorter I dont know!--

Yeah, I agree men who prefer shorter women generally are just too self-conscious and aren't confident enough. Petite women are nice, but I think taller women (As long as they are shorter than 6 foot) generally have better bodies and carry weight better.

Joe says on 15/Jul/08
shorter women are more attractive than taller women. she looks about 5'3 but its so hard to judge when you take into account the footwear women have.

Josephine says on 12/Jul/08
She is just a couple of inches shorter than the American average for women. Instead of wishing she was tall and unhealthy looking like a model she should focus on trying to get an education so she won't sound that dumb in the future.

Definetly 5"2 with heels. She could definetly be a model though, shes gorgeous. You only have to be tall if you want to do the catwalk thats it. She is around 5'2 but that is with her monster heels. I know because I have done lots of modelling myself and in magazines etc you give you height with heels. Its a comonly done thing, and right enough if she always wears heels then thats what it is, 5"2 or 3. But without she wouldnt be 5"

Anonymous says on 18/Dec/07
Jessica is 5'2 at the most... and to the guy who said that all guys like longer legs, sure.. I would probably agree with you.. but that's never a deciding factor on whether or not that person is attractive. I think Jessica is beautiful and she's herself... She's successful because she isnt phoney... it pays to be honest and to be yourself! Way to go Jessica! xoxo I live my life the same way!

she's def 5'2. no smaller, no taller. she's a big girl. i think she has to work really hard to get and stay in shape. typical build for a short girl. amazing how most people think she's taller. maybe cause she has a big head. lol

PC says on 9/Oct/07
Based on these pix from JessicaFann Click Here she looks more like 5'1". Even wearing platform heels she looked so short next to John Mayer who is listed 6'3". I'm 5'1" and my husband is 6'4". I always wear heels but not those big shoes Jessica wore in the pix. In pix our height difference is similar to Jessica and John.

Hi all! I'm so excited to say I bumped into Ms. Simpson the other day coming out of the gym. (I NEVER meet anyone famous!) She was in sneakers and didn't seem to want to be bothered by fans (there were no cameras around, so maybe that's why). I was in similar sneakers and I'm 5'3.5. She was much shorter than I expected. And her legs look like those you'd find on a 4'11-5'0 girl! My guess is 5 feet even, or 5'1 max. She is not tall at all (or even average height). Just my two cents!

Alex says on 9/Jul/07
Viper, at 6'3 I'd say a good height for a girl for you would like be 5'9-5'10. I think with guys a good height for a girl is 5-6 inches shorter than them. I myself love short girls too but I've seen taller ones I like too.

ugh-saw a recent pic of her and her new brown hair-i finally realized why it took my forever 2 figure out she is short-around 5'2 or 5'3-i always thought she was at least 5'5-5'6-it's b/c she's a big girl-very wide frame-and large chest and back give her a broad, powerful appearance. but, it is now quite
clear that she is indeed short. should have stuck with the blond hair, too. glenn, was she sweet? i hear she's a terror in person and totally not into the fans.

5'2 for Jessica and 5'5 for Ashley sound right? Or was there even 3 inches between the 2?

Well if she 5'3 so what. she only on inch shorter then the average 5'4 women. In japan the average women is much shorter. Anyway, drew barrwymore is about average for a girl so JS should be happy she near average for a girl. If glenn photo's are correct then she not too bad off. Too bad girls dislike short guys like me...it sux hehe...oh well. Wish guys could wear 4 inch heals, but noooooo.

Tiny and 6'0 at the same time. haha
Can't tell how tall she is though, plus she has heels but probably around 6'0. 5'11 at least. HOw tall is John Mayer though?

Only Stevie Nicks puts on heels like that 24/7 and 365 a year. Must be insecure.

I was always under the impression that she was about 5'4, she doesnt appear to be that small. If she was under 5'2 she wouldn't exaggerate it up by three inches because people would notice even if she wore heels, so I think maybe 5'3. 5'2 at least.

Anonymous says on 24/Jan/07
I am 5.5 and when I stand next to her, I tower over her. She's 5.1-5.2 at the most. When Ken cuts my hair I am taller than him by maybe 1-1.5 inch, therefore compare the two in photographs and you can see she is shorter than him.

Ellie says on 23/Jan/07
she seems very insecure with her height. i think she's lying when she says she's 5'3", her heels are always like 5 inches and then she's as tall as ashlee, who's 5'6"-ish. i think jessica is between 5'1" and 5'2"

Viper, Eva is pretty short but under 5'0 seems a bit too short, but Parker does have her by a solid foot. I can see Eva at 5'0 flat though and Jessica looks at least 5'2 to me. My estimates are 5'2 and 5'0 for each.

Viper says on 30/Dec/06
Alex, I cant see Jessica over a flat 5-2. Id even say she might be 5-1 1/2.

Id say Eva is 4-10 1/2 now. Just look how much 6-0 Tony Parker shrimps her.

Alex says on 29/Dec/06
Jessica isn't a tall girl, a little under average for a female but she looks tall compared to Eva. If Jessica's heels are a little bigger than Eva's that still puts Jessica 2 inches or so taller. Eva is 5'0-5'1 so put Jessica at maybe 5'3.

Anonymous says on 28/Dec/06
In that second pic, Jessica's heels have the advantage of a platform toe, which gives her more of a height-boost than Eva's shoes. They both have killer heels though. I say Jessica 5'2". Eva 5'0.

Actually, last year I was watching a program on VH1 on Jessica's life and in it, her high school teacher described her as being 5' 2" at the age of 15. Personally, Jessica strikes me as being 5' 3" today, but her actual height depends on whether she grew after 15.

Jess is so tiny, I went to a party for her a while back and I am 5'3" she was maybe my hieght or shorter. The real mystery is why vanessa and nick think they are so tall..

Nick is not tall he stood right in front of me 2 inches away from me I didn't have to look up to talk to him.

Jessica Simpson is 5'3" tall. I walked right next to her on the beach and asked her for an autograph. We were both barefoot and I'm 5'3" tall. By the way, Glenn cannot possibly be 5'8" tall.

I really think 5'1 5'1/2 for her. Not only does she wear high heels, but she wears thick-soled platform high heels. I saw a few pairs of her shoes from her line, and I was really surprised at how high they were. I have some wicked high heels (4 3/4') and Jess's shoes were just as high and when she wears them she NEVER looks tall.

Alex says on 15/Aug/06
She was listed at most places at 5'3 for a long time. The 5'4 I didn't see often. Shes def no taller than 5'3 and 5'2 is a possible but no less than that either.

Tim says on 31/Jul/06
It's kinda hard to judge by a picture. You can't tell if she's 5'1 or 5'4 just because her legs are so stumpy. And how you can compare her to another celebrity considering that most of them apparently exaggerate their heights.
I agree, Jessica is not blessed with long legs but that may be down to that she's not well proportioned like e.g. Sarah Jessica Parker whose legs look much better than most of the "tall girls" despite she's only about 5'3.
But I saw the picture of Jessica with two other women and she really looked quite short compared to them.

Avelin and Victoria you guys have visual problems because shes obviously not 5"3 AND THE PICTURES UR TALKING ABOUT WITH EVA LONGORIA PROVE HER 5"2 HEIGHT BECAUSE SHE IS WEARING HEELS AND EVA ISNT AND SHE IS STILL NOT A LARGE AMOUNT TALLER THEN HER

Amanda says on 24/Jul/06
all i can say is if you are short count your blessings.. 1 you can find guys taller than you 2. you can wear heels and not look stupid and 3 you can find jeans to fit.. all be it they may be too long but too long is better than too short. The only advantage i have found of being a 6'3 female is sports.

diana says on 22/Jul/06
Theres NO WAY Jessica could be 5"3. When you look at her next to stars like Eva Longoria they look around the same height. I would say Jessica is in a height range from 5"1-5"2. But who cares... the average American woman is 5"4 and under and many men consider her the hottest woman like ever. Many celebrities are petite such as Jessica, Eva Longoria, Christina Milian, The Olson Twins, Rachel Bilson, Drew Barrymore, Carmen Electra, Christina Aguliera, Hilary Duff,Jojo, Kelly Ripa and so many others are all under 5"3. As I always say, in my opinion, shorter is better because you date all guys of all heights in huge heels and even if you're not pretty youre still cute!

Nelly says on 19/Jul/06
To Sianna, I like tall girls, for sure. I like girls with long beautifull legs. But I don't like my girlfriend being taller than me, i'm 6'1. I think that 5'8 is a nice height for girls. Why are u asking, are u small or what?

Haylie says on 15/Jul/06
Has anyone seen her new video which Eva Longoria, Christina Applegate, and Christina Milian are all in? It's a pretty good way to judge all of their heights. I've only seen a picture of it being made but from what I can tell, Eva is the smallest, Jessica and Christina Milian are very close in height, and Christina Applegate is the tallest (though not be that much)

Yeah she may look taller because first of all....If you notice Jessica's shoes on sweetkisses.net on the set of her new video..they are pointy PLATFORM so they have an extra height under the front of the sandal..and also in another picture on the site it shows a pic where eva is not wearing any heals and shes standing near jessica whos wearing like 5 inch heels: Click Here ( notice jessica's heels in this pic..how they have an extra platform)

in the pic that sunbeame posted...jess looks a fair bit taller than eva whos what..5'1? so maybe 5'3 isnt actually wrong

sunbeame says on 24/Jun/06
Actually, after seeing some recent pics of Jess next to Eva Longoria, i am actually thinking 5'2 or 5'3 is not that far from the truth!! She looks about 3 inches taller, or an absolute minimum of 2 inches taller. Eva is apprently 5'1.
Click Here

Alex says on 31/May/06
Sunbeame, those sneakers she has on give a good 1.5 inches. I got a pair of new balance with chunkish heels that give 1.5 inches. My other sneakers give just an inch. New balance are known for the 1.5 inch heels.

Alex says on 31/May/06
Glenn, I could see Jessica as short as 5'2 but no less than that though.

J. says on 31/May/06
In defense of Jessica, in the pic that sunbeame posted, her legs are crossed and she's not really standing straight. However, it does prove that she can really be in the 5'2" range! It's weird because I could have sworn that she looked an average height girl back when she first came out!

Glenn says on 31/May/06
kind of looks that way doesnt it?

Glenn says on 29/May/06
5-3 tops.5-2 more realistic.

Wicked Kid says on 29/May/06
Glenn!! Are you really sure it's not 5'3" with her 4" heels????? Her legs are soooooo short I would probably only believe if you told me she's 5'.

Glenn says on 29/May/06
5-3 tops.I took the photo for conversation piece.

Alex says on 28/May/06
Decent picture by Glenn. She does look short there but those guys also appear pretty tall. Hard to guess her height in that picture since we don't know how tall those other guys are for sure. What did Glenn estimate her barefoot height anyway?

A. says on 24/Apr/06
She was such a wrong choice for Daisy Duke, that was really when her height kind of donned on me, the first thing I noticed in her photos was how stumpy her legs appeared...even at size 0!

All the sources for Catherine Bach are 5'8 (and she looked it, even taller wearing her heels, maybe you should do a height on her Rob?) and at size 1 her legs looked long and great. If Jessica was really 5'4 she would have been able to look taller, and the shorts usually make the most of increasing a persons illusion of height, but she still looked pretty small. I'd say she's around 5'1.5, 5'2 at the most.

[Editor Rob: bach will be added in future and on dukes did look near that yes]

Vivi says on 17/Apr/06
On one of the episodes of "The Newlyweds", Her fam was making fun of her for wearing high heels at the pool. She stated somthing like "I always wear heels I'm only 5'2".

Alex says on 16/Apr/06
Jess could get away with 5'3 and thats her at the max. 5'2.5 seem a bit more accurate.

sf says on 14/Apr/06
I don't mind her short legs either, as I find them quite gorgeous...

cheryl says on 13/Apr/06
kate i really do agree with you!so what if she's got short legs.i wouldn't mind.it's cute.she is something between 5.1-5.3 and whatever her height is it is fine and her height!people should be pleased with their height.it sis cute being short anyway jess in my opinion!

Kats says on 13/Apr/06
Totally crazy Rob! She certainly appears to have short legs, but her parents had to be insane to do that! Just insane! For starters, how could they think that would work, and more importantly how cruel were they to put her through that? IDIOTS.

Kats says on 12/Apr/06
Here's another listing I think is pretty accurate. I agree with 5'2.5-definitely around there. I'm surpised she's said 5'3 lately, since she's said 5'4 before. Maybe she realized she wasn't getting away with 5'4!

[Editor Rob: man, I can't get the image whenever I read her name of her parents spending 10 minutes every night yanking at her legs incase she ended up a midget...crazy]

ice says on 5/Apr/06
I give her a strong 5'2, which would be like 158cm. This would make sense with her sister at 164cm.

Alex says on 5/Apr/06
No way is Jessica as low as 4'11-5'0! LOL
Shes not as tall as 5'4 for sure. Rob's estimate is good though, but she's def in the 5'2-5'2.5 range.

sf says on 22/Mar/06
On Entertainment Tonight, or Access Hollywood, or one of those idiotic shows that I somehow happened to be watching a few nights ago, she was talking about some designer shoes coming out in her name, and how she likes heels because she is "only 5'3"." Anyway, she said, 5'3" - take it for what it's worth.

cheryl says on 22/Mar/06
yeah but also nick's sneakers have 1-1.5 inches.i do think she's 5.1,5-5.2.she goes to nick's nose when they're barefoot and as nick's 5.9 that height sounds right.

JDD says on 21/Mar/06
YEAH but dont also forget those uggs shes wearing DO have atleast 1-1.5 inches also !! I definitely have to say she is for sURE 5"1-5"2 and no more than that!!

Anonymous says on 21/Mar/06
Hey, could Jess be as tall as 5'3" Rob? Here she is with Nick and she's not in heels; he's in sneakers. She doesn't look as short.

[Editor Rob: yes, possibly. Sometimes you are going to find photos that exaggarate differences, with sloping streets, one person mid-stride, further back etc. In those instances some might argue simpson looks 5ft 1, but in most pics 5ft 2.5-3 is what I would guess]

cheryl says on 18/Mar/06
yes,i'm becoming to think she's about 5.1.gosh,i'd wish i only was as short.i konw it sounds weird,but i do.but jess is walking a bit more on the back side than nick.maybe?

theheightguru says on 13/Mar/06
Wow, that last pic looked pretty concrete. She's wearing MEGA HEELS and is still shorter than Nick.

Jeee says on 9/Mar/06
after seeing her in person Id bet money that shes five feet tall...no more...my friend is five four and she met her a few times before....both had heels on and she said she was a full head taller than jess...

cdtt says on 1/Mar/06
I met her about a year ago then I was about 5'9" and she had on some heels about mabye 3 or 4 inches tall. I was about 5 inches taller than her. So that is about 5'1" or 5'2"

sunbeame says on 28/Feb/06
A picture of her in trainers, looking very petite:

rae says on 23/Feb/06
I've heard that she's 5'3 at the most. That sounds about right. I just don't understand how all these average height celebs have such enormous feet!

cheryl says on 16/Feb/06
sunbeame,you are right.has anyone seen her lately?and who could tell how tall she is?it's true,you hardly never see her without heels.even ugg boots give you about an inch or even more!

sunbeame says on 15/Feb/06
The thing you have to remember is that Jessica tends to wear very high heels, and also styles with a platfrom base also. (Check out www.jessicastyle.com if you don't believe me, or pictures such as this http://www.jsimpson.net/displayimage.php?album=978&pos=0)

Such shoes will make her apear a fair bit taller than her true height!! This should be taken into consideration when working out her height.

Glenn says Carmen Electra is 5'2. Jessica may well be a bit shorter than this then, given her heel heights/platform soles. She also appears incredibly keen to mask her true height (even her 'flip flops' which she wears in newlyweds, and are on the jessica style website are 4 inch wedges!!. Plus she makes comments about how short she thinks she is.
She's a tricky one to work out as she goes to a lot of work to fool people into thinking she is taller than she is!!

cheryl says on 15/Feb/06
our girl jess is so short but i still think she's gotta be 5.2.my brother is about nick's size and i'm 5.2,5 and our height differenze is about the same as theirs.

Wicked Kid says on 13/Feb/06
Like I don't think 5'3" is classified as 'real short' as the average American Woman is 5'4". So she's just an inch below average which ISN'T considered 'real short'. She's totally bluffing. Or she's just too bimbotic to tell inches and feets apart. I stick to 4'11" - 5'.

[Editor Rob: I forgot what programme, but the other day I saw some footage of her and carmen electra and they really looked near enough the same height...]

JDD says on 11/Feb/06
EXACTLY so if shes like 5"1.5 she's gonna say she's 5"3...most celebrities DO add a couple inches to her height and she obviously did...she's NoT 5"3!!!

[Editor Rob: the thing is 'really short', isn't 5ft 3 or 2...for ladies 'really short' is Christine Chenoweth range! But the point is she began by saying 5ft 3 when she was 20 odd, then as she got even more famous she then starts saying 5ft 4...

this is the girl whose parents would yank on her legs at night in some futile attempt to make her taller ;-)]

CelebHeights Editor says on 11/Feb/06
March 2001:
"I’m real short, I’m 5’3” and I’ve always wanted to be taller"

Alex says on 9/Feb/06
I could go as low as 5'2 for her but nothing less than that. I highly doubt she'd boost her height up by 4 inches, lol.

Wicked Kid says on 9/Feb/06
5'2.5"??? Note how much Glenn has to bend to reach near her eye level.

Serene says on 5/Feb/06
Agree with Alex.. she is short.. but not as short as 5'.. that would be unfair for Jessica ( just kidding)..

5'2.5 is okay.. I think..

cheryl says on 26/Jan/06
we ALL KNOW JESS IS TRULY A SHORT PERSON,but she is definetely at least 5'1.i swear.i've never seen her but my brother is about same size than nick and when i'm barefeet our height differenze is about the same that nick&jess have when she's barefeet.IMO she's 5'2.?

CelebHeights Editor says on 25/Jan/06
On this page with pics a girl says, "She looked like a living Barbie and was shorter than I thought - in heels she was just a little taller than me. (I'm barely 5'1''.)"...not sure if the girl means she didn't have heels and jessica did...

Serene says on 25/Jan/06
In Dukes of Hazzard.. she does seem to be a bit short...

My local magazine also stated her as 160cm tall.. 5'3"

Wicked Kid says on 24/Jan/06
I'm still betting on 5' though. If Glenn stood straight, they'd already be 4" apart at least. And minus her usual 4" heels.

heightfan says on 20/Jan/06
She is a very tough one, she doesn't appear to be one of the true shortees (IMO an adult female 5'-5'2") I think you have her nailed at 5'2"1/2. Also I agree with cheryl about short girls being hot.

cheryl says on 19/Jan/06
when jess is wearing about 3 inch heels and is next to ashlee she looks a lot shorter.still.and ashlee has trainers.just look at those pictures when they were shopping last year or something in ny.i still don't (want to)believe that jess is only 5'1.i think 5'2.5'1 would make me jealous.being short is so totally HOT!!!

Glenn says on 17/Jan/06
wow.I had no idea she was supposed to be that short.but im putting my foot in my mouth cause she had heels on here and im bending and leaning into her.I would guessed 5-4.maybe she is 5-2 ish.

Toni says on 16/Jan/06
Hmmm....I would have to say that you can't go by pictures like this..She could be leaning in to him also.I have plenty of pictures with people that I look shorter than them just because of the way we are standing.

Viper652 says on 16/Jan/06
How the hell does Glenn meet all these celebs??

sunbeame says on 15/Jan/06
Also i was wondering, at 5'8 Glenn is only an inch or so shorter than Nick Lachey, but there always seems to be WAY more of a difference between them two?

Anonymous says on 14/Jan/06
Glenn what would you guess she is in barefeet?

sunbeame says on 14/Jan/06
So what do you rekon then Editor Rob? I know you can't see the heels, but you can assume they are her usual 4 or 5 inches. She has admitted herself that she always wears heels this big. Glenn is STILL taller AND is leaning.
I really do think from all the photos/tv shows i have seen, that she is a very petite person. The general consensus on this page strongly places her at about 5'1.

[Editor Rob: Glenn, what did you reckon she looked when you saw her?]

Anonymous says on 14/Jan/06
I can't see the picture of Glenn with Jessica? Does anyone else have that problem? Is there a link to it where i can see the picture? Thanks

[Editor Rob: it had an s missing in the filename so shows now]

Sarah says on 14/Jan/06
I'd say she is 5"1'. I'm 5"1' also and even in 4" heals she looks the same as I do next to average height girls. When she stands next to other celebrity girls that aren't that tall themselves she still looks small. My boyfriend just noticed how short she was on the award show she just did. When she presented she stood way off to the side to try to make it less noticeable.

Rilson says on 8/Jan/06
I was watching E!news the other day and they showed a video clip of jessica on the red carpet at some event, and i have to say i was really shocked at how tiny she was! I'd always assumed she was around 5'3 but i don't think so anymore. The camera was looking down the red carpet so you could see her in comparison to other people and she just looked like this tiny little doll. (thats not ment to sound derogatory - i think she's beautiful!!). Anyway this is obviosly with her heels ON - without them, i dunno, i'd also be inclined to say 5'0 or 5'1 i think. But admitedly in some pics she can look taller, but probably just through bigger heels.
Ashlee - i agree, maybe 5'3.5/5'4.

Sarah says on 6/Jan/06
Jess is definitely 5"1, but I don't think Ashlee's only 5"3...I think 5"4....she seemed taller then that...and don't forget also that in pictures next to Jessica, not only are her heels usually smaller then Jess' but also she slouches a lot when she stands, giving the effect that she's shorter then she is !

Wicked Kid says on 6/Jan/06
Well so that kinda settles it doesn't it? Jess is 5'1" max, and Ashlee's 5'3"?

Marc says on 2/Jan/06
I met her one time when she was in Flip flops. I'm 5'10, and I had a little bit more than a head over her (maybe about 9 inches, since my head is about 8 inches). She complained to me that she wished she was my height (even though i'm a guy...weird) since I'm the right height to be a female model. Too bad I'm not 6'3" like I want to be, but short hot girls always make it all better.

anonoymous says on 2/Jan/06
she is defnitely 5'1" because she says herself she usually wears 5-4" heels- and if she was really 5'4" like she says she would be about the same height as Nick Lachey! And in all pictures she is about 3 or 4 inches shorter than him.

sunbeame says on 17/Dec/05
So how tall would you say she is then, Bobbyb?? Would you agree with the rest of us that she is more 5'1 than 5'3??

bobbyb says on 16/Dec/05
I've spoken to her and had pics taken with her twice. She's tiny. What's funny is when you look at her in pics she looks like she has huge boobs. When you see her in person hers are no bigger than an average girl. It's just that she is so small they looks proportionately bigger. The camera plays funny tricks.

Anonymous says on 7/Dec/05
yea i'd say 5 foot 1. shes so short! LOL
but short girls are much cuter

Anonymous says on 6/Dec/05
if nick is 5'9 exactly then jessica looks like she is closer to 5'1, if nick is taller than 5'9 (which most people think he isnt) than she is taller maybe in the 5'2 area.

sunbeame says on 5/Dec/05
Here is another one where they're both standing a little straigter:

Some rare pics of jessica in trainers, may help to give some perspective. I still think smaller than 5ft 2.5, remember Nick isn't majorly tall himself at around 5ft 9.

hannah says on 2/Dec/05
she says she's 5ft 3,but i guess she might be shorter.i'm 5ft 2.5 and i really hope she's not shorter than me cause she's the cutest and i don't want her to be shorter.i'm jealous.being short and tiny is SUPER!!and jess IS TINY!!

Wicked Kid says on 30/Nov/05
Apollo, a pity we can't see their heels. Mandy looks to have about 8 inches height advantage over Jessica.

Wicked Kid says on 23/Nov/05
Well the editor Rob has to listen to both sides. So at least he's starting to downgrade Jessica. Half an inch is still something. Though I'd still be pushing for the 5'1" she deserves.

sunbeame says on 23/Nov/05
There's no point downgrading her just half an inch - everyone seems to be saying she's not that tall, and from pictures i've seen i agree! If you're going to downgrade her at least it make it worthwhile!! Some of these female celebs seem to get away with lying too easily!!!

Wicked Kid says on 22/Nov/05
Yeah, Jess's clearly 5'1" MAX to the MAX. I wouldn't be surprised that she's 5'0". Why is she listed at 5'3"? Since Nick Lachey's height's been downgraded by an inch, shouldn't Jess's height be downgraded too?

[Editor Rob: I'm thinking 5ft 2.5...but 5ft 1 is well, people can get away with 2 inches]

anonoymous says on 20/Nov/05
Why do you still list her height as 5'3"? She is clearly 5'1"-5'2".

sunbeame says on 19/Nov/05
On here and in the ashley simpson page, there sure seems a lot of evidence for a downgrade? I think she is 5'1.

Viper652 says on 13/Nov/05
Sean William scott is no more then 5-10 though

sianna says on 13/Nov/05
im seriously doubting that shez even 5'3! i mean look at here in "The Dukes of Hazard" in the scene when Jess, Jonny ans Seann r in the bar, it is clear that jess is wearing 4-5 inch heels, and she barely reaches the 6" Seann William Scotts shoulders! i think she is 5'1.

Kianna says on 11/Nov/05
i'm glad that jessica is 5'3 because i'm only 5'2 and she is so beautiful. so she is like a role model to me if she is that short and still looks that beautiful then i could look that beautiful too.

Anonymous says on 6/Nov/05
it says she is 5'3'' everywhere but i wonder how can she not look so fat when she is that small. cuz she have big breasts and everything. i think she looks taller.

Sarah says on 28/Oct/05
she admitted herself "I always wear 4 inch heals, when I want to look taller I wear 5 inch heals." From In Touch Magazine...see her heals are enormous!!!! but shes the best!!

Anonymous says on 28/Oct/05
You guys really think she is shorter than 5'3"? I guess she always wears really really high heels then?

What says on 27/Oct/05
I think evidence is sufficient for a downgrade. 5'2" is still generous, but Jess deserves generous.

Serena says on 26/Oct/05
You HAVE you downgrade her to 5"2 i've met her too and I'm definately 5"4 (just been measured) and she was more than an inch smaller than me!

heightgirl says on 24/Oct/05
Heh - SORRY Sarah - but it's very easy to claim you've met someone on the Internet. Pictures are the only evidence I take seriously.

a 5'9 girl says on 23/Oct/05
Now when you downgraded Nick to 5'9 you can downgrade Jessica to 5'2

SARAH says on 22/Oct/05
YES MISS height girl...she does look 5"2 because i met her!!!! shes soooooooooo small....goo meeet her then come talk okay buddy

heightgirl says on 22/Oct/05
There's no way she's shorter than 5'3. I'd say somewhere between 5'3 and 5'4.

Sarah says on 22/Oct/05
jessica doesnt look 5"3

J. says on 17/Oct/05
That pic also proves that Lachey ain't 5'10".

Sarah says on 15/Oct/05
It really is true...I think that she says her height WITH her heals because when i met her she was wearing some uggs of some sort ...with like maybe 1 inch heal..and im a tru 5"4 with flats...she was definitely shorter then me..by like two inches..(with her uggs on)

Christina says on 14/Oct/05
do you wanna hear what I really think?!
jessica is 5'1 and nick is 5'9.
i'm quite sure about this.
you REALLY SHOULD DOWNGRADE HER

Loli says on 13/Oct/05
could Jessica be under 5`3``! I thought she is that mush but you can tell editor rob!

Anonymous says on 11/Oct/05
Ashlee is onlt two inches taller. And Jess is not 5'3", at all.

I fitted jessica for a dress a couple years ago. She barely met the 5'1" mark without shoes. Ash was only three inches taller and nowhere near 5'6". We have to know that stuff. When you are super short in Hollyood it is very easy and a basic requisite to add about two or three inches to your height.

I'd say 5'2.5.

i think her legs looked long when she's in jeans,but when she's wearing skirts,her legs seem quite short.Like in the "dukes of hazzard",she was wearing shorts and its quite clear that she's not very tall.But i think she's beautiful and sweet!
