she is 5'7 She is thin that is why she looks to tall! And heels add a lot of length especially since the trend now is like 5 inch heels!

Caleb says on 14/Aug/08
I remember her being interviewed on the red carpet, either at Cannes or the Oscars, and the interviewer said she looked like a model, and was as tall as a model, but she obviously wearing big heels, so 5'7" is probably about right, as with three or four inch heels on, she would give the impression of being supermodel tall.

Tall girl says on 13/Aug/08
I can't believe she's only 5.7 she always looks so tall like a model! I'm 5 . 9,5 myself but it's a different story cause i'm from holland and everybody's tall!

sophie says on 12/Aug/08
I reckon she's about 5'7", maybe slightly taller. In POTC 2 when she does the kissing scene with 5'9" Depp, she's only about an inch and a half or so shorter than him and he's in boots with a heel!

This chick is tall as hell next to every guy she is in a movie with/stands next to. I would say 5'8" or 5'9" easy.

question face says on 13/Jul/08
yes, she looks 5'7 solid, no more no less.

diana says on 1/Jun/08
yeah she is definitely 5'7. she's spot on in most movies and in that atonement movie apparently her costar is also 5'7, but haha god forbid a guy is the same height as a girl and they had him wear lifts so he could appear taller... on another note, isn't natalie portman 5'1?

Marion says on 24/May/08
I do believe Keira Knightley is in fact 5'7".

You must consider her "body type" in this case. She is a classic "pear shape", which means her weight is in her thighs, hips, and general leg area. On top of that, she has short legs and a long torso. I think this could give the illusion that she is much shorter than she is. For example, look at a girl with long legs -- she can appear much taller than she is, but ultimately be much shorter in reality. This can be applied in Keira's circumstance, just only the opposite.

Here is a photo of Keira and Sienna Miller on set: Click Here They're wearing matching wellies, so there is virtually no height advantages to either one, considering they are wearing the same shoe. Sienna Miller claims to be 5'5", although I suspect she is around 5'4" at most. In the photo Keira is obviously a few inches taller her, which would bring us in the 5'7" range.

Also, James McAvoy is 5'7", and at several of the Atonement premieres Keira appears taller than him because of her heels. I looked at a few photos and her heels don't appear to be exceedingly tall or anything, and judging from that I WOULD say that without the she WOULD be his height. Which is 5'7".

Lola says on 17/May/08
I agree with most of you on her seeming not so tall, because her torso is longer than her legs. So it appears that she is short for that reason. When most likely she is 5'7" like she says.

People think I look 5'7 or 5'8, and I'm 5'4 1/2 and its only because I have longer legs and an everage torso. Being thin helps too I guess. Id say she weighs less than 110. I weigh 109/110 and I'm sure I could look better at 104.

Kay says on 16/Mar/08
I am 5' 6" and 110 with the same body type and I can say with certainty that she weighs less than me, maybe around 100lbs no more than 105.

C. says on 10/Mar/08
I think Natalie is shorter than 5'3" (always looks closer to 5'2") and Keira looks closer to 5'6" honestly. I don't really care for her though-- I don't think she's beautiful in the least (not to mention quite boyish regarding her figure) and appears quite stuck-up. Meh.

Anonymous says on 27/Feb/08
everyone with an eyewitness sighting says 5'4 5'5. I believe she is 5'5". 5'7" is the standard hollywood "add two inches" game. 5'5".

When Myleene Klass interviewed Keira at the BAFTAs they looked a similar height and Myleene Klass is tiny. You can't see their shoes though.

brother_h says on 31/Jan/08
since when is 5'9 the average height for a man!? i thought it was 5'11 for white guys and 6'0 for islanders.

and this chick looks like she can be 5'7, blame her thin build and long(sexy ;p)legs

ive seen her with a 5'10 actor and 5'6 actor(i have no idea wat the bloodyhell their names are 0_0) i do know the 5'10 guy is white and the 5'6 guy is chinese.
both men were taller than her. well the 5'6 guy looked taller coz his eyes were above hers.

Kathy says on 31/Jan/08
I have seen a photo of Keira and Sienna miller. They both look to wear shoes with heels, but Keira looks 4-5cm taller than Sienna and Sienna is around 165cm. So maybe Keira is really around 169-170cm tall. But James Mcavoy is 170cm tall and at the Atonement premier she looks shorter than him.

elizabeth says on 27/Jan/08
No way is she a solid 5'7, around the 169m claim is more appropriate.

brett says on 24/Jan/08
if you look at all the pictures from the atonement premier, she is just about james mcavoy's height and he is 5'7. one would assume she isn't wearing flats to a red carpet event, so she is definitely shorter than 5'7. maybe 5'5-5'6? i think she needs a downgrade.

razz says on 21/Jan/08
shes no more that 5'6...if james mcvoy is 5'7 (which he said so himself!) then shes shorter than that...look at this pic: Click Here

I think Keira is about 5'5 or 5'6 she seems quite tall to me.when you look at pictures of her next to reese witherspoon she seems quite tall.she isnt that much smaller than johnny depp and he is 5'8.

Audra says on 20/Sep/07
I'd definately say she's arround 5'7 I met her at the POTC 2 premiere and I'm 5'5, she was super nice, and really tall but I'm chalking that up to the heels she was wearing.

2good2btru says on 28/Aug/07
Ending the debate right here-I was NY last year and asked for her to sign a mag for me(she was with this really skinny guy)-she did-she was really nice, she said I had nice blue eyes-hers are dark brown. Anyway I am 5"9, my sis was with me she is 5"7 and was wearing flats-so was Kiera....my sis was an inch taller os so. BAM! Debate over. Keira is a def 5"6. BTW Jonny Dep is about 5"7 no way that gut is 5"10-no way.

not tall not short says on 29/Jul/07
FYI: people can have additional vertebrae (thoracic region), giving the 'long torso' many of you comment on. It elongates the form as well. Keira is one of the most beautiful faces around. She isn't short either, and is modelling in all the top ads in top fashion magazines very successfully. Yes... she has it all! She is also young and has a couple years of growth left, so don't be surprised if she says she is 5'8" because all of us continue to grow into our early 20s and growth spurts are unpredictable.

Alex says on 22/May/07
She was down to around 100lbs I read last summer or the summer before that. 100lbs or 105 or even 110lbs at 5'7 is skinny but I think she looks ok though.
And she does look all 5'7 though.

Alice says on 22/May/07
In interview with "Cosmopolitan" Keira said she was 169 cm tall.

also look in pride and prejudice you can see her side body profile alot and it displays a long torso and also a slightly longer than normal neck.she juts her chin forwards alot.a definite 5'7 but appear shorter because of she is upper body long/w short legs

gina says on 13/Feb/07
all the people that have met claim she is around 5'5...im around that height and as im quite skinny i look longer and leaner.

Alex says on 13/Feb/07
Keira Knightley does have a disproportionately longer torso in comparison to her legs. She may be 5'7", but she's top-long. You can see some pictures on the Internet where she has her legs curled next to her body. A person with long legs will usually have the top of their knees reach at or above their shoulders (most runway models, in fact, actually go even above their shoulders). Hers top out way below her shoulders. And if you see images of her standing (preferably with shorts on, for full perspective) you can tell her torso is longer than her body.

Incidentally, Natalie Portman is also similarly proportioned (aka Denise Austin-"low butt"-to-ground, albeit she is shorter.

kim says on 6/Feb/07
i dont understand why people are saying "she looked short in this photo i saw in this magazine blah blah blah" - how can you even TELL from a picture?!

Gotxo says on 6/Feb/07
She's the kind of person that for some reason looks taller than she is, as , for
an instance, Logan's run Michael York.

I've always wondered if she's the classical intermediate value like 5' 7.5" a rounds down. Or maybe it's onlyy that she's incredible skinny (¿50Kg?

Glenn says on 6/Feb/07
I wish I could be more informative but I never met Keira.I think your right Alex.

Anonymous says on 5/Feb/07
if kate beckinsale is 5ft 7, keira is 5ft6.

Alex says on 5/Feb/07
Glenn, thats what I was saying when I see someone 4-5 inches shorter than me its a big difference to me as I'm pretty much towering over them. I can see over the top of someone who is 5'8 and my eye level comes to the top of someone who is 5'8.5. And my eye level is a good 4.5 inches from the top of my head and I'm 6'0.5.

I'd say Keira could be 5'7 but her skinny frame can make her appear taller but 5'7 is very possible still, 5'3 I could agree with for Natalie, 5'2 at the very shortest. What does Keira weigh? I read 100lbs in a recent magazine but that estimate may not be the most accurate though. But for someone 5'7 100lbs is pretty light. She doesn't look bad to me though.

Glenn says on 15/Jan/07
I agree.thats a HUGE difference.and I agree that Portman might be shorter.

Alex says on 14/Jan/07
She says 5'7 and 5'3 is a huge different and she's right for the most part. Some people will say 4-5 inches is a small difference and I have to disagree. Thats a big difference. And Portman isn't even 5'3 from what I hear. A little less most say. When I am near someone 5'8 I'm in between 4 and 5 inches taller and I feel like I'm basically towering over them.
Rob, when you see someone 4-5 inches taller than you don't you feel towered over? I do.

Keira I believe is 5'7 though. What do you think Glenn?

Coffecakes says on 7/Jan/07
Saw a documentary on telly called Skinny Celebrities and Keira was in it - they had some diet expert on who stated her height at 5'6 and weighing in at about 110lbs!!
She doesn't appear to be a solid 5'7.

Rose says on 2/Jan/07
She doesn't quite seem to be 5'7, about 5'5 to 5'6 is right. She is teeny miny next to 6 ft plus Cilve Owen in King Arthur and next to her 6'0 ft boyfriend even shorter. I guess she looks tall becase of her slim frame.

Lara says on 30/Dec/06
Keira is about 5'5" TOPS. A friend of mine met her in London, and my friend is dead on 5'7, and she was barefoot and Keira was in flats when they met and she said Keira was 5'5 tops. No more, and no less.

Viper652 says on 6/Oct/06
5-6 1/2 Id say.

to me Keira really looks 5-7.Sometimes she looks taller, but she also wears high heels.
if you ask me, 5-7 sounds realistic. so, i would give her a 5-7.

i just read somewhere that she was 5'7" and only 7st 10lbs- she's always looked v. thin to me so perhaps this height is right cos i'm same height and 9st 7lbs and with about the two stone difference thats probs the right kinda stature.

I think she's 5'7. Her skinny build may make her appear a bit taller.

you can look and see the girl isn't shorter than 5'6.If you look at people like hilary duff and jessica simpson,rachel bilson who are all like 5'3-5'4 tops) and lindsay lohan and ashlee simpson (who are like maybe 5'5)keira looks taller than all of them.she has a long neck which may make her look taller but to say she is anything shorter than 5'6 is ridiculous.If Alexis Bledel is like 5'6 Keira would have to be 5'6 or if not 5'7.I believe she is 5'7 look at Eva Pigford.Even Keira standing next to Olrando Bloom she is definitely like 5'7 or at least 5'6.

Anon says on 28/Mar/06
Many of you, not all, are forgetting that female celebrities mostly wear heels in public. So if you're saying that she was a little taller than you in public when you met her (if you're not wearing heels), without heels she would probably be shorter. Just a reminder :)

Short is under 5' 3". The average height is 5' 4.5" remember? Weirdo. I think Keira is 5' 7" which is actually on the tall side for a woman. Where do people come up with the average woman height being 5' 10"? Because that's what it would have to be for a woman of 5' 7" to be short! 5' 10" is the average height for a MAN!

Britpop says on 13/Dec/05
I think she's just one of those gorls that looks tall b/c she's skinny. However, vertically, when compared with others she is definitley on the short/average side. I don't think it's possible that she is even 5'6".

Smoke says on 6/Apr/05
She's really 5'7" tops, if Kate Beckinsale is truely under 5'8" then Keira is under 5'7". Granted in the pics of them together Keira is much closer to the camera than Kate and it's generally harder to gauge women's heights then men's because women wear much bigger heals. In the pics I've seen with Keira and Kate, Kate really does look an even inch taller than Keira. If Kate is 172 cm, then Keira is really 169 cm.
