I think lil kim's height is so adorable! I'm only 5'2 and every body I hang out with is taller than me so I like being short.... and besides looking like a slinky girrafe is not cute

Shawn Johnson (also on Dancing with the Stars) is listed 4'9" or 4'10" and she said that Lil Kim is taller than her "by like 2 inches". rachel says on 21/Apr/09
yay finally a celeb thats my height =] i love lil kim, ive been watchin her on dancing with the stars. us shorties are cute so dont hate :p Golden says on 9/Feb/09
Anonymous (1/Oct/08) beauty is not based on ANY of those superficial things, it is based on character. I think it is very shallow that you believe that beauty is determined by face and weight, just like everyone doesnt need to be the same height, everyone doesnt need to look the same, or be the same weight...what is the world coming to... Just me says on 20/Jan/09
Too much time on your hands! If you're in a wheel chair you'd be shorter than all the short women in the world, so never judge others on appearance. God is watching you. Michelle says on 15/Dec/08
So what if she is short! I'm short too and I get more guys than my average height girlfriends. God created us all differently and beautifully! Stephen says on 20/Nov/08
You are absolutely right brown sugar! I am a guy who is 17 and I'm 6'0 and I prefer short women like you. Taller guys like me do prefer short women. And another thing is if you are short you don't have to worry about wearing heels. You said you are around 4'11 and I'm 6'0 so if you wore heels you would be about 5'2 and still WAY shorter than me. And another thing is that if you are 4'11 you would never have to worry about bending down to kiss your boyfriend. lol. Anonymous says on 1/Oct/08
well she probably started out at 4'9 now she is 4'11 who knows. people do grow...i dont think she is 4'9...i think she's about 5'1 or 5'2 with high heels.I think it woudl be weird if everyone was the same height...besides I think peopl are beautiful based on face and weight not height....=) danny says on 1/Oct/08
I thought she was 4 11 she is still so pretty short girl says on 14/Sep/08
is she really that short? I wonder if the height claimed here is retribution for her lying about her height. The picture looks like an exaggeration since Glenn is leaning in. I'm not trying to be contrary, but sometimes how we feel about someone effects how we perceive their looks. Sometimes I find this sight demeaning, and other times playing favorites. Its very scary how obsessed people can get over size. Tracy says on 27/Jul/08
i would never thought that lil kim was 4ft 9.5in, i thought she was abt 5ft- 5ft 1, i am 5ft 1 and i cant believe that i am taller then her wow Brown sugar says on 15/Jul/08
For all the ppl that's asking, yeah alot of guys go for short girls/women. I'm around 4'11", and all my boyfriends were always tall. I don't know why but they always were attracted to me and not my shortness but they do mention they love my height. I aint the shortest one in my high school, but being short is a beautiful thing. Everything adds up. God didn't make me ugly with no butt. So I'm alright with my height. Actually being any height is okay, so other people stop saying damn she's so short and what not. At least we short people doesnt need to worry of our boyfriends being taller then us. Kris says on 9/Jul/08
There are so many wonderful, beautiful girls in the world- some are tall, some are small. Gabrielle Reese is tall- and beautiful. Shakira is small- and beautiful. There are plenty of people who are particularly attracted to tall girls, and plenty who are particularly attracted to small girls. That is the truth, no matter how it may seem in the media. Though I can find girls of all heights attractive, I am particularly attracted to very very small girls. If Lil' Kim is 4'9", that sounds great to me! And maybe it doesn't to everyone, and that is perfectly alright- but plenty of people do like it :-) Marie says on 5/Jul/08
Well, I'm 4'8, so if I ever do meet her (haha!) I can tell everyone for sure.
And what's with people insulting others and their height? Height really can't be helped, and shortness or tallness doesn't make anyone more or less beautiful. Samantha says on 26/Jun/08
I'm 4'11" and its not an issue for me AT ALL. I'm shaped like a woman and completely in proportion. Ive always known Lil' Kim as to being the exact same height as me. Melinda says on 7/Jun/08
I don't understand why petite girls NEVER admit their actual height, or average-heighted girls either, for that matter. 5'ers usually claim 5'2'' or 5'3'', and 5'4/5ish chicks usually say 5'7''. We can't all be giraffes, get over it! Being short can be cute. Davey says on 2/Jun/08
wow she is really really short.I cant beleive it.How is she famous again? runt says on 1/Jun/08
Rob, Lil' Kim is a musician? are we using the term a bit loosely? J. says on 18/May/08
Rob, is she REALLY this short? Any real proof? As I stated a while ago, an old magazine article on her from back in the mid '90s did describe her as 4'8". Karen says on 13/Apr/08
What is the problem with you? It isn't her fault of being short. So what? Height is not the most important thing in life. In fact, most of the smartest people in history were short. Maria says on 26/Feb/08
I would like to make a comment to Alexandra. First of all at one point Americans were the tallest people in the world and I read somewhere how some Europeans became obsessed with becoming taller that they were actually taking HGH. I don't know how much of this is true but all I know is that there appears to be some growth issue in some Eastern European countries. I am 5'8 (average) and all of my friends are short and to be honest I don't see that as being abnormal. It is actually very extraordinary to see how differently we were all created. rain says on 15/Jan/08
you guys are really cruel! no wonder ther are so many girls who are small have to have more confidence coz you guys put them down. victor says on 25/Dec/07
wow, she makes me feel tall and I'm short! I'm only a miserably short 5'3 or 5'5 with shoes or fancy shoes. Sara says on 1/Dec/07
Kathryn what doyou have against small women? In previous post, I tried to put aside my anger and say something kind. She is not tall but get over the short thing...there are many people who are short...it is not abnormal. If we can't reach the top shelve on a grocery store, we meet a hot guy who can. Instead we are given a gifted mind, or the sexiest looks, or even better, a deeper perspective on life and the whole equality thing.
I hope you realize that if you use your only strength to cut down others, you lose all your other possible strengths...just like if short people ended their lives right then and there with thier ''trajic''shortcoming.
Being short has inspired me to lose weight and reach that size double zero (healthily), turn down the guys who I once thought were too good for me, use my intellect, and help others find their beauty.
Hope you find yours but...trust me, if its abnormal...i am thankful. I'm what I am says on 26/Aug/07
I'll be surprised, if she's 4'11 - 5'0. Good eyes, Rob!
4'9 is not a weird thing for girls (ok! It's a weird in Hollywood world, but not our world). There're still a lot of girls at this height in E. Asia, S. America... Especially, it is simple in Indochina. I even live in N. Europe and I still see some 4'8, 4'9 healthy girls.... Anonymous says on 14/Jul/07
OMG i just saw a commercial today about car safety and if your 4'9 or under u need a car seat lil needs one LMAO Alexandra says on 27/Jun/07
Oh my god!!! How can she be THAT short??? I was 146 cm when I was ten!!! I mean, I am from Serbia, and we're kinda tall, but still... Kathryn says on 25/Jun/07
@TOKATHRYN.....now, i didn´t see any comment of u here, hä? so why do u take a hand in this? and if u write one more comment like that, i´ll show u how to get a life! god, i hate people who take a hand in sth. but dont even have a clue what they´re talking about... titch says on 20/Jun/07
i am 5'1 and a 6'2 friend once said i was 4'9. he refused to believe i was any more even when i said he could measure, all because my other friend who was the same height was wearing heels. these things are deceptive. i think this is too little for her. TOKATHRYN says on 16/Jun/07
Kathyrn,
You need to get a life. All I see is comments from you on here! Do something positive with your life rather than commenting on what u consider short (as if anyone really cares about your opinion anyways!) Kathryn says on 13/Jun/07
this is short, okay? absolutely extremely short!! and noone can say, this tall in any way, she´s a real pudgy. a 9year old kid is only this height if its gonna be tall an adult but this height here is like the height of a 10-12 year old kid of course. Rae<3 says on 3/Jun/07
I ALWAYS THOUGHT SHE WAS LIKE 4'11 porsche says on 17/May/07
Looking at Danny Devito's photo with Glenn, Lil Kim looks significantly taller even accounting for heels. anonymous says on 24/Apr/07
i have met her before. she was shockingly short. nowhere near 5`0. easily 4`10 and under. hello says on 9/Apr/07
trueheight, a 9year old kid isn't 4 ft 9. Only in the netherlands, and they are the tallest people of the world. Its A Punjabi Ting (UK) says on 9/Apr/07
Cutie in my experience, over here in England, girls get confused over their height. I see some who are clearly short, but call themselves 5ft 3. I'm 5'8", and girls who come up to my chest call themselves 5ft to 5ft 2. trueheight says on 8/Apr/07
wow, how did you guys seem to downgrade her to the height of a 9yr old? I thought the consensus was 4'11? john says on 5/Apr/07
Sure do! I have a 4'10"/11" friend and I'm totally crazy about her! cutie says on 6/Mar/07
do guys go 4r short girls???? ShiaLabeoufGurl says on 18/Feb/07
OMG who is this Glenn dude that all the celebs r always photographed with!!!!!!!!!!???????????? Evanna says on 7/Dec/06
The picture that T. posted here is hillarious. What a freak show. Too much make up can make women look really ugly.
As for Kim, probably under 4'11". I remember seeing a documentary several years ago where she and her friends spoke about her life etc. She mentioned that Biggy didn't take her seriously at all in the beginning, because of how small she was. A says on 16/Nov/06
Her jail photo shows her at 5 feet 0 inches
[Padraig: If you were going to ask a question on which singers were under 5 feet, my iron clad response would be little kim] J. says on 4/May/06
Towards the end of this clip of an appearance on the Howard Stern show, Kim is asked by Howard her height. She jokingly says "5'11", then after a bunch of giggles, she answers "5 feet": Click Here
I specifically remember a 1996 article (I think, in Black Beat magazine) on Kim had the writer describing her as the '4 foot 8' rapper. I don't believe that she's THAT short though. Just a sub-5 footer who quotes herself as such sometimes. lol ice says on 30/Jan/06
Okay, this one I know. She was doing an interview on BET a few years back ( wearing some purple outfit) The lady asking questions took notice to how little she was, and came out and asked her. Kim replied "4 foot 11." I don't know where the 5'0 or more claims came from Anonymous says on 26/Jan/06
i read in loaded mag a good 11 year ago when first i herd of her that she was a 4ft9 raper CelebHeights Editor says on 26/Dec/05
She did say once, "I say I'm 5ft and a half, but I'm really just 5ft" Great Porro says on 18/Dec/05
i saw her once appon a time my 9 year old sister was higher she is such a small
like aaa{....} 8 y.o girl someone says on 24/Sep/05
she is most def 4'11" J. says on 23/Feb/05
She was wearing shoes in the mugshot, hence the 5'0" height. |
