Rich says on 17/Nov/09
ANOTHER short ex-child star. this is crazy..

She honestly looks a half inch shorter. Linda may have been a tad taller in her early days.
mcfan says on 3/Nov/09
If she is 5'2 why does she look only 5'0 to 5'0.5? Looks like Rob and Jenny have roughly 7.5-8 inches on Linda.

I remember her on S club 7. About the same as the rest of those girls. Short.
Daii says on 23/Sep/09
Don't forget Rob has said he had a footwear advantage above^. So she could be 5'2 just hes nearly 5'9 because of his footwear. She looks 5'2 here next to him anyway.
Teddy89 says on 26/Aug/09
I'd say 5-1.5.
Anonymous says on 30/Jul/09
I'd say that Linda was 157cm in her prime and now looks 1 cm shorter.
Daii says on 26/Jul/09
Wow even Rob gets to dwarf some people (just kidding). She looks a legit 5'2
Anonymous says on 3/Jul/09
156cm
Doug says on 27/Jun/09
Looks between 5'1" and 5'2" compared to Rob.
Alternateuniverse says on 9/Apr/09
I see 7 inches here. Either Rob must be 175cm or Linda is 5-1.
595 says on 29/Mar/09
Rob looks 5-9 and a half to 5-10 or Linda must've shrunk.
Anonymous says on 6/Mar/09
Rob looks rather seven inches taller if Linda is 5-2.
Maribel says on 14/Feb/09
Also, how tall really was Linda in that pic? She looks about 5"1.5 or just 5"1 like sam said. She might've been 157cm in her prime.
Maribel says on 13/Feb/09
Rob, you look a tad over 5"8, like a 1/4 or 1/2. How tall were you in that pic?

[Editor Rob: that time of day, I think this was 4-5 hours after waking. So 5ft 8 and 1/8th probably.]
158cm says on 3/Feb/09
Maybe because she had big heels on.
T.J. says on 2/Feb/09
WOW!!!! looks alot taller in scariest places on earth, but I guess that's because there's no one next to her to compare lol.
Lozzer says on 29/Dec/08
What sneakers were you/her wearing Rob?
I will have soooo many nightmares after seeing this photo...cheers Rob!!!
(hehhe the exorcist scared the hell outta me)

[Editor Rob: 0.55 inch converse vs 0.9-0.95 samoa.]
thepope says on 11/Dec/08
Up the hoops!
Minimum says on 27/Nov/08
Actually, Linda was never really 5,2. Maybe in footwear, she is. But I seen her and she was like two inches shorter, about 5 foot max. Blair does wear heels to look taller. She needs a downgrade.
Maribel says on 25/Nov/08
She's probably 5 foot 2 with her hair.
Maribel says on 19/Nov/08
I think she's a little shorter, about 5"1.25. Go to google, yahoo, or any search engine. Type "Spike TV's "Scream Awards 2006', She was standin right next to Jennifer Carpenter, who's 5-foot-8 and a fourth, it seemed she dwarfed Blair. Rob, don't you think it's time for a downgrade.
Maximum says on 14/Nov/08
She's five two max, but she does give an impression of a 5"3-4 person. Blair does wear heels to make herself taller.
theman says on 31/Oct/08
Always thought Linda was cute, but I would have never slept with her in fear her head would spin. (And not in a good way)
Anna says on 30/Oct/08
i think shes a bit taller,like 5'3-5'4
sam says on 17/Sep/08
she is rather petite and looks five foot one.

[Editor Rob: In that photo I had about 6.75 (- the 0.4 advantage I have), so 6 and 1/3 inches over her...as shown here]
Alex says on 2/Sep/08
I think if you're 5'8.25-5'8.5 out of bed and 5'7.5 by the evening that would be a legit 5'8 too. But like Rob was saying, thats like a solid 5'8. Now something like 5'8 out of bed and 5'7 by the evening isn't a legit 5'8.
Emilie says on 27/Aug/08
I can't help but think her eyes look a little scary...all I can see is the exorcist girl ! And 5ft 2 looks right :)
Bobby says on 23/Aug/08
One of the most adorable women I've ever seen. Just looks so pretty and sweet.
Lindablair59 says on 14/Jul/08
I love Linda Blair. I am her huge fan! Now she's 49,but she seems as she was 18! Linda,you're the best!
Davey says on 11/Jul/08
rob are you a real 5`8? or are you a glen 5`8? which means 5`6 lol

[Editor Rob: I would happily let anybody measure me in the afternoon...and know I don't hover on the 5ft 7.5 mark...

in other words a legit 5ft 8 needs to measure that in the afternoon or at worse be a few mm shy of it...not a 1/2 inch shy of it]
Davey says on 28/Jun/08
get over it lego.weirdo
Ejel Khan says on 22/Jun/08
Met her 5'2" seems right, really nice lady!
roccos says on 6/Jun/08
i love your glasses rob

TNTinCA knows of what he speaks...

Sam says on 2/Jun/08
I think the elfin, "cute" features common in child actors remains so that they are elfin as adults as well.
Linda Blair has elfin features?
runt says on 4/Jun/08
Davey says on 2/Jun/08
I must admit i still feel a little weird when i see a photo of linda blair.The exorcist scared the hell out of me as a kid.
A very unfortunate good performance in a very unfortunately influencial and milestone of a movie. Unfortunate for her career I mean.
Charliemoto says on 3/Jun/08
OMG! i've been wishing for a Linda Blair page for some time now, excellent job ROB.

she's definitely 5'2 abou 10-15 years ago she looke very slightly above 5'2 like 5'2.5 imo, dont think she lost more than 1cm throughout the years (if any).

so yes 157-158cm is correct.

thanks again rob for this page.
Ejel Khan says on 3/Jun/08
Met Linda, lovely lady, got a pic with her! Unfortunately she was sitting down, but when she was standing, she appeared only 5" max!
Davey says on 3/Jun/08
ok TNT that actually makes alot of sense.
TNTinCA says on 2/Jun/08
Child actors being "small" is actually very common and is largely due to the fact that they usually hire older childer that look younger to portray certain characters on screen. It makes sense because it is easier to coach an older child that looks young as opposed to coaching a younger child.
Davey says on 2/Jun/08
i ment slow growth drugs not both lol.Im using my mobile phone.

Sam says on 2/Jun/08
I think the elfin, "cute" features common in child actors remains so that they are elfin as adults as well. I think 6 footers like Zach Braff or Jason Bateman are as big as they get.
Davey says on 2/Jun/08
Look at actors like macauly culkin and other child stars,They are all very small even when they grow up,Coincidence?
Davey says on 2/Jun/08
Alot of child actors seem to stay small,I think they get injected with some both growth drugs to keep them looking small and young.

[Editor Rob: now I think this explains why maybe some of your post s don't show!]
Alex says on 2/Jun/08
Looks about 5'2 or a hair under.
