The autopsy showed he had arthritis in his knee. That might have had something to do with losing a bit of height.
Anon says on 22/Jan/12
I believe he was a solid 5'10 in his prime and probably lost an inch due to aging, what do you think rob? Silent d says on 10/Jan/12
Who is the kid in the photo above? Alan's son? In that photo he looks close to alan light's height. In the photo above he is 177cm easy. I thought he was 5 foot 8. 5 foot 9 is about right. Anon says on 31/Dec/11
@italian dude have you saw his kids lately? There half cast! Look at his daughter, but anyway I think MJ was about 5'10 he looked tallish in his videos ACG says on 27/Dec/11
He would hunch over a lot to try and go unnoticed in public settings- you would too if you were Michael frikkin' Jackson!! italiandude says on 24/Dec/11
response to ACG
Michael did a lot of things to he's body (he even admited to having a dimple created in his chin) but as a huge fan that has watched nearly every picture or video of him i can assure you that he had no more than 2 or 3 nose jobs.i agree with you though that it's hard to believe that they wheren't for cosmetic reasons.
To me the real "weird" thing about MJ are he's kids wich are by no means halfcasts
Regarding he's height i saw him from about a 4 meters distance and i think he was around 1'77 cm,i didnt look at he's footwear tough ACG says on 17/Dec/11
And for the record, I'm a huge fan of his, but I DO see things realistically. He was an incredible human being of immense talent and virtue, but was by no means without flaws. His extreme naivety, foolishness, and fundamentally warped concept of reality ultimately contributed greatly to his own downfall.
Of course there were other parties and factors to blame, but it's quite apparent that he himself had at least some part in just about every incident where he found himself a "victim".
I don't believe he committed any of the crimes he was accused of, but I also think he acted in such an irresponsible manner, leaving himself vulnerable to false allegations.
Of course that doesn't give anybody the right to try and take advantage of his ignorance and innocence by concocting made-up charges against him, but you'd have to be brain-dead to believe that Michael didn't have the means necessary to have prevented such a scenario from arising(at least for the 2nd time, in '03).
Not a criminal, but just lacking some serious common sense.
And the bit about only having two surgeries on his nose(AND for non-cosmetic purposes, to boot) was probably the biggest crock of BS I've ever heard. I felt almost insulted that he'd expect anyone to believe that...
So when I say he was 5'11", don't think I'm some deluded fan who thinks he was perfect and had zero faults. ACG says on 17/Dec/11
Collins- That is impossible. Nobody would call a below-average-heighted man "surprisingly tall" upon meeting him, which is exactly what I hear from every other encounter where his vertical stature is mentioned.
He was a proper 5'11" man who could give off a 5'9" impression when stooped over, whether it be in pictures or in person.
You might even be taller than 6'3" and be underestimating your own height or possibly have been standing on a higher surface. Perhaps you even had a footwear advantage, because MJ almost always wore flat loafers in public.
Any way you look at it, Jackson was easily over 5'9". Dina says on 17/Dec/11
@Collins Maybe he looked smaller to you because your so tall? He's a solid 5'10 people, get over it. R.I.P seriously?? says on 16/Dec/11
@seriously: are you really bothered about whether people discuss his height? What does it matter whether they do or not? Seriously says on 14/Dec/11
Are you guys sittine here talking about his height? Wow what does is matter he was a legend and one of the greatest of all time! Get over it people if he was 5'11 or 5'0 it should not matter!!!!!!!!!!!! RIP MJ Collins says on 9/Dec/11
I saw Michael in Nov/Dec of 83 when I was a teenager working at Disney in the underground tunnels, I got a chance to stand directly next to him. My striking memories were; How small he was, How huge his hands where & How soft and quiet he spoke/seemed. I am 6'3" there is NO WAY he was over 5'8 - 5'9" I have a picture from that moment with him (a cherished possesion) and I am chin & head above him. Also, I remember thinking then, the comments I had later heard him say: "He was thought of as an animal in a cage" cause I along with everyone else was looking at him as though he was some type of alien, and making comments about him as though he was not there. That would have to have been a sad life on God's earth! RIP Michael... lauraa says on 1/Dec/11
I think he's about 5'10. In his book Moonwalker he says something about him being a teenager and being nearly 5'10 so I think he was at least that. Just look on the HIStory tour, his shoes probably give him like an inch but he looks about 5'11. CLC says on 24/Nov/11
A friend of mines seen Michael in 89." She was sitting with his family in the front row seats & he was a few feet away from her on stage. She stated to me that she was shocked at how tall he was in person. He did have 1 in boots on that day So my guess would be 5'10 barefoot at age 30. With the boots on he was probably 5'11". Michael was very thin so when others that have met him say he was small they mean in weight not height. Before his death at 50 years old he was probably 5'9" since men loose about an inch after 50. No way in hell was he below 5'9." In the way you make me feel video model 5'7" Tatiana is wearing 2-3" heels & Michael wearing loafers were about the same height, He had half an inch over her. Marc says on 20/Nov/11

According to Michael Jackson's autopsy report he was 69 inches. That meant he was 5' 9" and this was his correct height. Danimal says on 25/Oct/11
ikuu says on 22/Oct/11
5 ft 9.5 or 176cm to 177cm. Once he said that he messured himself when he was very young nearly 5 ft 10, but he was not a clear 5 ft 10. His driving licence from the mid 80s says 5 ft 9. ( just something over 5 ft 9 )5 ft 9.5 when he was 30, 5 ft 9 when he died at age of 50. Police had him at 5 ft 11. The Day the Police had him he wore 1,5 inch boots gives him a 5 ft 11 with his shoes in 2003. so just a 5.9.5 or 176cm to 177cm barefeet, 175cm when he died
He was being given 5'11" in the 80's already. Not just in 2003. You don't know he had on 1.5" shoes when he was arrested. Everything you are saying is speculation and you are stating it as facts, when it isn't. eurolaura says on 24/Oct/11
I met Michael 3 times in 2 days during his second visit in Bucharest back in 1996 and the first time he was standing right in front of me, in the hotel hall, at 50 cm, for about 2 minutes. I am 174 cm and that day I didn't wear high heels (no more than 1 cm heels) so let's say I was 175. He was like 2-3 cm taller than me with no more than 1 cm heels too. I couldn't believe he was so tall. And so thin. And so white. And so childlike looking and acting. The second time he was in a theater (inside the famous, huge, ugly, grotesque Ceausescu's People's House) sitting at 2 rows distance in front of me and the last time I saw him it was the next day. He was sitting in his car while I was the last person allowed to enter and sit with him to talk for a while, right before he left to airport. I don't have any pics because at that time a camera wasn't something one can afford in our country. I hope it helps. I apologize for not knowing the measures in ft. ikuu says on 22/Oct/11

Rob, what do you think is the absolute minimum you can concoct an argument for with Michael's height?
I mean 5' 9" does appear to be a 'realistic median'. But I swear I have seen him appear as low as 5' 7" in various photos!
Cheers.

I Mean Michael Wasn't A Short man , he Always looked Like A Good 5'11"

And Couple Of months Ago I Read A Book About Michael's legacy , Even The Book Stated 5'11"

Jess says on 16/Apr/11
If Michael was 5'7, how come he looked 5'9/5'10 next to 6'0 Brooke Shields in the Off The Wall Era, when he wore LOAFERS? I'll compromise and say he was 5'8 at the shortest, barefoot and up to 5'11 with "heels".
Click Here
Seeing Brooke was measured at 5'10" at the age of 14 and if this picture of the two of them is from the Off The Wall era (circa 1979), then Brooke was MAX 5'10" at that time and looks to be a good 2-3" on MJ. marko says on 10/Jul/11
5 ft 10 or 5 10.5 sounds right Slim Shady says on 7/Jul/11
C'mon Let's get it Right Michael Jackson Was 5'11" At His Best
There's no Biography of Him That States he Was 5'9" or 5'8"
it's Either 5'10" or 5'11"
But I'll Say MJ Was A Good 5'11"

Michael never had the best posture, but I disagree with a lot of the comments below. Michael was not 5' 9". He must be 5' 10". However, perhaps he is a little shorter considering that his shoes were usually elevated. I am a thirteen year old female and stand at 5 11.5 currently. I am still growing. I would think to be only an inch taller than Michael. Opinions? ACG says on 4/Jul/11
hex says on 2/Jul/11
I know that he's a lot shorter than Oprah because I saw the 1993 special and thought, Oprah's TOWERING over MJ she must be well over six feet. Then I read Oprah is 5'7" so MJ was five feet at the most. Oprah had a good half foot on him

Michael was 5'8" at the most, and perhaps had a footware disadvantage in this photo, because Alan Light, as I've made a good case about on Dolph Lundgren's page and all over the site, is 5'8.5", being generous. chris says on 24/Jun/11
there's a better picture of these two standing together and michael was a whole lot taller look up "In The Closet" Viper says on 21/Jun/11
He was never 5-9 in his life SweetChari says on 20/Jun/11
I always thought he was 5'10" but the truth is folks he was 5'9.5"/136 pounds according to medical record--not the 5'11"/110-120 pounds claimed. That's probably why he claimed 5'10" b/c he WAS 5'10" in loafers! He had poor posture so this is why he looks shorter. The 5'11" height on his mugshot can easily be his height in heeled boots. He mostly wore loafers and he definitely towered Oprah during her special folks maybe she'd taken off her heels. He was barely taller (in boots) than barefoot Naomi Campbell in his music video In The Closet. She is 5'9.5" (same hgt as him). Also, he doesn't look that much shorter than 6ft Brooke except for when she has on heels. He didn't always wear heels either, loafers don't give much height and aren't lifts. Mr. Kaplan says on 17/Jun/11

I saw him talking to oprah and she towered over him by several inches. Oprah's around 5'7". So MJ is about 5'2"

@sarah
How do you know your dad is really 5.9.5? I'm 5.11 and I'm often a couple inches taller than others claiming that height. sarah says on 30/May/11
My dad met michael once during a press confrence and My dad said that as far as he knows they are approximatly the same height my dads 5 ft 9.5 - 5ft 10 Marie says on 29/May/11
I have a strong belief that Michael was probably 5'8" without shoes (and probably in the morning). My exact educated guess is that Michael is/was 5'7.5", but most of us like to round up, don't we ;). I'm a costume designer and have a good eye for measuring people and clothing just by sight. I've been doing it for years, so I think my estimates from the pictures could be fairly accurate.
At the 1984 Grammys, it appears that Michael is wearing shoes that can't have less than a 1/2inch heel on them but even considering the angle of the camera don't look to be more than 1"; it doesn't appear that he wore insoles because the sides of his shoes appear very shallow and I think his heels would've continuously slipped out if his feet were propped up inside (impo).
In this photo of him and Brooke Shields at the event, she looks about 3.5 inches taller than him. Brooke appears to be in flats, however I can't find any photos of the back of her shoes, so I'm just going to assume she's in flats. (For the record, Brooke is 18 or 19 and Michael is 25 or 26, and by that age people are usually done growing.. upwards anyway).
Brooke has widely been publicized at 6', which I don't think any woman would say they were 6' unless they really were (most women would never want to be that tall). At age 14 she was measured at 5'10". I'm going to go with the shortest she's been reported to be, so we're going to say that she is 5'10".
Click Here
So now let's break down this photo. This is how I set my minimum height for him.
Even if Brooke was in flats, she would be at least 5'10. They are both standing at the same mark on the sidewalk and the camera is about eye level with Brooke; she is standing straight and Michael is standing slightly bent to hold Emanuel. Michael, in no more than a 1" heel, looks to be about 3.5" shorter than her. So doing the math (3.5" difference + 1" of shoe = 4.5" shorter than 5'10" flat-shoed Brooke), he can't be shorter than 5'6.5", and with his child-carrying posture, I'm going to grant him a half an inch, so I have him at 5'7" (and I'm not even taking into consideration that she might actually be 6' or wearing heels).
To get his maximum height, I used another photo from the same event, where he stands side by side with Quincy Jones who is reported to be 5'6"-5'6.5". I'm going to use the maximum height reported on Quincy to find my estimated maximum height for Michael.
Click Here
Now I've scoured the internet and cannot find a full-length photo of Quincy from that night, but I'm going to assume that he was wearing shoes no more than 1" tall, because I haven't seen him wear heels any higher in any other full-lenth photos from red-carpet events. I believe they are standing almost exactly in line with each other, by comparing the size of the two Grammys they are holding and the position of their shoulders. So, with Quincy's estimated maximum height being 5'7.5" with heels, Michael stands about 1/2" taller than him, side by side. The camera is at eye level with both of them. Michael is tilting his head down to the side slightly, so I give him another 1/2" since Quincy appears to be standing straight. (Why is Michael's posture so slouchy for a professional dancer... anyway back to where I was.) So I'm going with the 1" taller for Michael. So with my estimate of Quincy's height being 5'7.5" maximum on that night with shoes, and Michael standing 1" taller maximum (and we established already that Michael was wearing a maximum of 1" heels), we do the math. (1" difference - 1" of shoe = 0" taller than the 5'7.5" heeled Quincy, making my estimated maximum height for him 5'7.5"
So with all that said, I reaffirm my belief that Michael was not 5'11" or even 5'9", but actually 5'7.5" (maybe 5'8" on a good day). That's my professional opinion and I'm sticking to it. Mr. Kaplan says on 21/May/11
Again, all words, no evidence. Each time he "looks" 5'11", we don't see his footwear. On the other hand, there are many pics of him and his shoes, being dwarfed by some celebrity. Justin says on 21/May/11

Irma, please read well and know about this site before making foolish comments. Here, when somebody writes "weak" + any height, this person means that the real height of the subject tends to be less than that estimated figure. On the other side, "strong" + any height means that the real height of the subject tends to be more than that estimated. It doesn't have anything to do with a person being strong or weak for being any given height. Irma says on 15/May/11
I don't see why people call 5'8 "weak" I've seen many stupid,hateful comments on this site,not to mention the absurd obsession with tallness or rejection towards shorter heights...are people who say 5'7 and 5'8 is weak are 6'3 or something are you?

mj was the height metioned above.bt im confused,cuz bo jackson wrote in his biography that mj was as tall as him when they met,bo is listed 6'1" ,6'0" max.i think mj wore insoles. Asera says on 20/Apr/11
Very simple...watch We Are The World. Click Here

He's about the same height as Diana Ross. So about 5'6 like I've said before
Click Here 178 says on 20/Apr/11
Michael Jackson was definitely 5' 7".
Here with 5' 10" Paul McCartney, Jackson without lifts is 3 inches shorter:
Click Here
Here with lifts, Jackson looks just 1 inch shorter than McCartney:
Click Here
Jackson appeared 5' 9" with lifts. This explains the 5' 9" listing! 178 says on 20/Apr/11
Hi Rob. Just out of curiosity, what was the maximum height Michael Jackson gave the impression of being (when wearing heels or elevator shoes for example)?
Just wondered if a celebrity as big as him was made to look a certain height by his PR etc...
Cheers.
[Editor Rob: I think he could appear like a 5ft 10 man at times] 178 says on 20/Apr/11
I know I sound like a killjoy but this listing is incorrect. Baring in mind Michael Jackson's the biggest celebrity on here (if not, in the entire world), I find it illogical that a website attempting to pinpoint accurate height listings for celebrities should make such a basic error.
His maximum height was 5' 8". He was possibly as low as 5' 7".
Here's a photo of him with David Bowie, who was 5' 10" peak and you can see 2 inches difference between them:
Click Here
The question is whether Bowie was still at peak height when this was taken.
Compare Jackson to many true 5' 9"-5' 10" guys such as; Paul McCartney, Freddie Mercury, Prince Charles, Eddie Murphy etc... and you see that Jackson clearly falls short of 5' 9" and can appear as low as 5' 7". It really couldn't be more obvious!
Kurt Cobain's another one who's listed incorrectly (at 5' 9" funnily enough). He only ever claimed to be 5' 7" and looks it next to true 5' 9" guys.
I'm not knocking the editor by the way. He's constructed a great website with his passion, knowledge and welcoming tone. Nor am I a Jackson worshiper, nor am I trying to belittle him. I'm just a guy who's interested in accurate facts regarding my favourite celebrities. Now... time to move on to another celebrity, lol!
As Rob says, "Don't take height too seriously!"
Love and peace ;-) Jess says on 19/Apr/11
Asera, I will believe you if you can explain to me how 6'0 Brooke Shields didn't "tower over" Michael in the Off The Wall era. (He wore loafers back then).

Viper says on 10/Apr/11
MJ is not even 5-11 in boots with lifts. Who are these dumb trolls?
MJ at 5'6 is possible I guess. But Id go with 5-7 to be on the safer side.
Wow, it's pretty sad when even VIPER thinks you're going too low. Asera, GTFO. Asera says on 18/Apr/11
He was almost the same height as George Lucas so about 5'6 is absolutely right. It's the easiest thing in the world to see by the way, I really can't believe some people are only now figuring this out. Michael's physique and proportions were always of a person in that height range, from 5'5 to 5'7 max. When you see the picture of him with Lucas and compare it to the one with Eddie Murphy it's REALLY obvious. He was also always VERY slender and thin. Just small in every kind of way. Most dancers ARE shorter people you know! I doubt he could have been as fast and agile if he was much taller. 5'6 to 5'7 is PERFECT height for a dancer.
I just really feel like everyone in Hollywood(the insiders) and the ones who run this site are having a huge laugh at people for only now figuring out how tall(or short)he really was when it's been SO damn obvious all the time. They KNOW he was MUCH shorter than is being claimed in any publicity. They've always known he was more closer to 5'6, and never even over 5'7! This is one of the biggest Illusions of Hollywood height! I guess the more famous they become the more their height gets exaggerated over time, and no one is more famous than MJ.
Back in the 80's almost everyone knew Michael was only about 5'6-5'7! That's simply how he looks too! Jess says on 16/Apr/11
If Michael was 5'7, how come he looked 5'9/5'10 next to 6'0 Brooke Shields in the Off The Wall Era, when he wore LOAFERS? I'll compromise and say he was 5'8 at the shortest, barefoot and up to 5'11 with "heels".
Click Here Mr. Kaplan says on 15/Apr/11
I feel like I'm arguing with preteens. On each and every pic where he looks "tall", we don't see his footwear. rey says on 14/Apr/11
This is Wat Stupid People Say:He Was 172 Cm
This Is What People Who Know The Truth Say: He's 5'11"
Just Look The Photo With Opera
Opera Is 5'6.5
And Mj towers Her Like Over 4 inches Robert says on 13/Apr/11
Asera - I'm willing to admit he was closer to 5'7 than 5'9. Although I'm starting to think you have some kind of messed up hero worship with Jackson to the point you have convince yourself he was the same height as you..
By the way, I think it's kind of ignorant to assume a whole family is short by judging solely on the women and one male. Jermaine is an obvious 5'10 at the very least. Not very short, is he? Janet is about 5'3-5'4 which is pretty average. Joe Jackson looks like he could of peaked at about 5'10 as well. You take this height thing too serious. I mean I'm interested in celebrity heights, because a lot of them lie about it, and it's interesting. But come on dude. Mr. Kaplan says on 12/Apr/11
hill, are you blind?
Can't you see he's wearing cowboy boots? Viper says on 11/Apr/11
There is nothing worse than people who still think hes 5-9 going by that stupid autopsy report. I guess Tupac is 6-0 then as well. Viper says on 10/Apr/11
MJ is not even 5-11 in boots with lifts. Who are these dumb trolls?
MJ at 5'6 is possible I guess. But Id go with 5-7 to be on the safer side. mike says on 10/Apr/11
If MJ was 5'11", why did 6 ft nothing Reagan tower over him? He might be 5'7". Dr.dre says on 10/Apr/11
MJ Was 5'11"
There Is No Way That He Was Shorter Than 5'9
Seriously you guys are crazy Asera says on 9/Apr/11
Yes, DEFINITELY more closer to 5'6 :
Click Here
Click Here
Click Here
Click Here
And next to Eddie Murphy he sure doesn't look even 5'7 :
Click Here
He needed those boots to look like he's over 5'7 next to a 5'9 guy!
There is no way he was 5'7. It's just not possible.The height exaggeration gets more and more ridiculous all the time. I mean he even obviously had the physical proportions of someone around 5'5 - 5'6. His body proportions are too similar to Diana Ross. Click Here
It's no wonder because his mother is only about 4'11-5'0. She's REALLY tiny.
Michael and his sisters are ALL smaller than average height because height is hereditary and in the genes Click Here
The Jackson's are a "short" family and that's it! Asera says on 9/Apr/11
I've been thinking he was maybe more closer to 5'6 than 5'7. He was just too close to Diana Ross in height to be any taller. Click Here
I think maybe 5'6 and half at his tallest without any shoes on. I just love how much they lied about his height that autopsy thing! It's just so hilariously innacurate and untrue when you think that in reality even in his 20's he even barely reached 5'7! Anyone can easily see he was clearly always much shorter than 5'9 if they only bother to look for the truth. It's just SO obvious it's ridiculous.I don't know...maybe they measured him wearing his 3 inch heeled boots or something! Or maybe they're just lying for some other reason. It's all very strange. hill says on 8/Apr/11
it depends on the angle of the camera

Why is it so hard for the guy to be 5'8? Mathew says on 7/Apr/11
He was never more than a weak 5'8" barefoot. Guidette617 says on 7/Apr/11
I know a few people that met Michael back in the 80s and they said they were very shocked at how tall he looked in person. After men hit 45ish they start getting a little shorter then when they were 25. ACG says on 5/Apr/11
Viper says on 4/Apr/11
They didnt measure him at his autopsy you nimrod. Tupac was 6-0 at his autopsy. You believe that too? LMAO
And John Lennon was supposedly measured at 5'6" for his autopsy. Do you buy into that, Viper?
...whoops, never mind, I forgot who I was talking to. Viper says on 4/Apr/11
They didnt measure him at his autopsy you nimrod. Tupac was 6-0 at his autopsy. You believe that too? LMAO Mr. Kaplan says on 4/Apr/11
So Tupac grew three inches after his death? Amazing! tell-em says on 4/Apr/11
tupac's autopsy had him at 5'11", no way was he close to that height. Rob says on 1/Apr/11
Viper - I don't really have to prove it.
Look at his autopsy. The real answer says on 1/Apr/11
You can check the AR on "The smoking gun site". Case report say he was 69 inches tall. If I'm not wrong that's 5' 9". You can read it again on page 7.
Click Here
I also hear you loose some height after death (about 1 inch, not more), so 5' 9" - 5' 10" is about right (whichever fits your needs), he wasn't under it, because you do not grow after death, sorry. Danimal says on 1/Apr/11
Robert says on 31/Mar/11
Asera - He was 136 pounds when he died. This was confirmed by his autopsy that isn't to hard to find on the internet. He was also measured at about 5'8.
136 pounds?? You gotta be kidding me! Michael was MAYBE that weight in the late 70's.. Towards the end of his life he was a frail man (less than 110 pounds)... Viper says on 31/Mar/11
Where was he measured at 5-8? Stop throwing out all this measurement crap If you cant prove it. Xerxes says on 31/Mar/11

He was much closer in height to 5'6 - 167 cm George Lucas than 5'9 Eddie Murphy :
Click Here
Michael was just about barely 5'7. This is a fact. He was near to 5'9 ONLY in high heeled boots. And no "offence" but it's SO obvious too. I really wonder about some peoples intelligence sometimes. It's time for everyone to wake up finally! 5'7 and only about 100 lbs...Just think about that for a second. This poor man had some serious eating disorders from a very young age. It's amazing he had so much energy for all that rehearsing, dancing and running around on stage!
Where the hell did he get all that energy from if he didn't eat or sleep much at all. Was it pure overpowering willpower or what. Viper says on 30/Mar/11
Eddie Murphy is 5-9 and maybe some change max. Just like Rob has him on this site. Somebody explain how MJ is looking close to 2 inches shorter with MJ having a footwear advtange and Murphy wearing flat shoes. ACG says on 29/Mar/11
alex: How tall are you?
And MJ did NOT have an eating disorder....he was naturally a lean, albeit healthy dancer who practiced and worked his ass off to perfect his remarkable moves.
And way to buy into that asinine tabloid "MJ anorexia" garbage, Danimal. I wish I could say I was surprised, but coming from you, I'm really not.
As a matter of fact, for someone who thinks Cruise is 5'6.75 because it was written in some random article, I really wouldn't expect anything less.... Danimal says on 28/Mar/11
alex says on 22/Mar/11
ASERA: Once again you manage to prove that you're a delusional kid with no proof to sustain what you say.
Just because Michael was skinny does not necesarly mean that he was anorexic. Some cases are different.
For instance I have 49 kg (108 pounds) and I eat like a ****ing cow 5 times/day and I'm still skinny without having a eating disorder. I eat but I just don't gain weight.So when you make such accusations you beter have evidence to sustain your words cause a skinny body does not necesarly mean in all situations an eating disorder.
So you can be at least wrong with the anorexic thing in Michael's case.
It's been widely documented that MJ had an eating disorder. He was scared to get fat. He thought he was ugly in the late 70's, so he decided to diet and it became an obsession of his throughout his adult life..
BTW, if you're only 108 pounds, you really NEED to go to a gym and take some serious weight gain powder... Danimal says on 28/Mar/11
Viper says on 22/Mar/11
Eddie isnt 5-10 Danimal.
Yeah, he could be shorter Viper... M&M says on 28/Mar/11

Come on man
mj is maybe wearing heels with Janet
but with Paul of course not
that was the THRILLER era he didn't wore any lifts in those era's
the one with slash is the dangerous tour , and he didn't wore any lifts when he's on tour , just the normal black shoes that students wear in schools
mj starting wearing lifts in the bad era , mostly in the invincible era Rob2 says on 27/Mar/11
@MMM- Michael wore lifts. I'm a fan of his as well.. But I'm a realist. Michael was about 5'8. Mr. Kaplan says on 27/Mar/11

Wow, I thought MJ was 5'10"-5'11" growing up. Next to MAX 5'10" Eddie Murphy, MJ is looking 5'8"-5'9" MAX if he stood fully straight.... Mr. Kaplan says on 20/Mar/11
The shot with Murphy is killer. He's basically wearing flats. Paddington says on 20/Mar/11
Asera those are some really interesting pictures. Particularly him with Reagan. That was in the 1980's when he was at his peak height, and when Reagan was a good bit shorter than 6'2 Vice-President Bush, making him no more than 6'. In those MJ does look 5'7". He also looks no taller than an age Frank Sinatra who was 5'7.5" peak. Asera says on 19/Mar/11
Michael often LOOKED like he was closer to 5'9 simply because he very often wore shoes with 2-3 inch heels on them if you haven't noticed! Now that will easily make a 5'6-5'7 guy look like he's closer to average height or about 5'9. Barefoot he was only 169-170 cm at his tallest.
For dancers too much height can be a disadvantage. So Michael's height was ideal for a male dancer. The weight was apparently only about 99 lbs during early to mid 80's. So he was definitely,in my opinion at least, anorexic. I wouldn't call that a healthy weight for 5'7 in no way. He just wouldn't eat much at all and would rehearse and dance until he fell down from pure exhaustion!
Basically he was always naturally very small, slender and slight physically,but the obvious eating disorder made him look even thinner. Asera says on 19/Mar/11
Just look at this :
Click Here
Eddie Murphy actually really IS 5'9...and Michael is clearly much shorter even though he has on shoes that give him a lot more height advantage over Eddie's much flatter shoes! Michael was at least 5-6 cm shorter than Eddie Murphy who actually really IS 5'9, or 175 cm!
Michael was only about 5'7 or 169-170 cm MAX in his 20's and that's IT! That's also exactly the way he looked with George Lucas too. NOT 5'9, not 5'8...but just about 5'7. Barely an inch taller than a well known 167 cm guy!
And if people STILL refuse to understand this very simple and obvious fact then there's nothing I can do about it. You just go ahead and believe in lies but I'd much rather stick to the TRUTH. Mr. Kaplan says on 19/Mar/11
Lol. Eddie Murphy has 2 inches on him. Here's to the "5'11"" man. rey says on 17/Mar/11
i too think that michael jackson was about 5'10 - 5'11
people who met him said he was pretty tall
i think i the history era he was in his best shape
he weight was alot in the history era like 75 - 78 kg
and even his height like 5'11
when he died he still was approximately 5'11" songoku211 says on 17/Mar/11
Probably 5"9 before his death because he slouches a lot, I think he was a full 5"11 at his peak as he got older he shrunk an inch 'til he became 5"9 in his final years. He's a smooth dancin' brother if you ask me :D Brad says on 14/Mar/11

mj was 5'11

rob please upgrade his height
just look at his photo with oprah hill says on 12/Mar/11
i say he was 5'10- 5'11. He was pretty tall, not 6' feet but defiantly not 5'8. For everyone who is saying his shoes made up for the what, the 4-5 inches that made him appear to be 5'11, that's absurd. If Michael was strutting around in high heels like that, I'm sure he would have had much more negative attention then what he got.
His shoes might have contributed to an 1 inch of his height but really no more then that. d wade says on 10/Mar/11
looks 5,7 with Michael jordan rob should downgrade him to 5,8 or 5,7. Cynthia says on 9/Mar/11

No we can't see his shoes in the photos that Omi posted but we did see Michael's entire body including his shoes in his interview with Oprah from 1993 when he showed her how to moonwalk in his movie theatre.He didn't have lifts and he still was towering a lot over Oprah.And the interview was actually BROADCASTED LIVE not RECORDED (remember that during the interview the fire alarm went off and Oprah said somethinh like:" The fire alarm just went off.Remember that this is a live Interview from Neverland and anything can happen"),so he couldn't have had the interview edited.So don't you ****ing tell us that he was 169 cm cause you don't believe that yourself. We are not all stupid you know.

Asera:He's only ever really looked tall with people who are about 5'3 or shorter? Seems like you have some brain issues!
As far as I know Michael's ex-wife Debbie Rowe is over 5'3, over 174 cm and Michael even without heels was still taller than her.
Here is a photo of Michael and Debbie:

So 5'3 or under is only in your mind-haters's minds.Just accept the facts! Michael was over 174 cm and that's a FACT! PERIOD!
Of course Michael is as great and loved no matter what his height was (HAHA HATERS) but when lying unfair people like you live on this planet Michael's FAIR FANS WILL ALWAYS DEFEND HIM! PERIOD! Night, Night!!! Asera says on 11/Feb/11

It's SO funny to me that this site has Michael at 5'9 and Sylvester Stallone at 5'9 yet Michael was clearly much shorter than Stallone, just like he was with another REAL 5'9 guy Eddie Murphy! Click Here
Why can't they just admit already that in TRUTH he was just barely even 5'7 in his 20's, I just dont understand it. An affirmant in Tokyo says on 11/Feb/11
No other 5'7 or 5'8 men look as great and taller as MJ did.
The Jackson brothers including Michael are generally shorter people, but on stage they look more gorgeous and greater than anybody. Asera says on 10/Feb/11

I wonder how he looked taller in his later years though. Platform shoes? Asera says on 9/Feb/11
Of course he was 5'7! He's only ever really looked tall with people who are about 5'3 or shorter...He was closer to 5'6 George Lucas in height than 5'9 Eddie Murphy. Looked the same as 5'7 Frank Sinatra in the 80's. Just accept the facts already. Besides, what's so terrible about him being shorter than 5'9 anyway? People come in ALL kinds of different shapes and sizes. He's Michael Jackson! He should be as great and loved no matter what height he actually REALLY was in life. Roland says on 9/Feb/11
Asera - Yeah I agree. He was about 5'7 tops. When ever he wasn't performing in his trademark loafers he would always wear those shoes with the heels on them.
btw I think he was 105 in the 80s. I read his book and he said he had a desire for a dancers body. Not exactly anorexic. Apparently he was 136 or something when he died. Even though he looked noticeably skinner then rather than in the 80s. Brad says on 9/Feb/11
Murphy wears lifts, Jax's posture is always bad in poses. Both are 5' 9". 5' 9" a few feet from me in a court. He's taller than you think with good posture and if you ever saw him close-up. Asera says on 8/Feb/11
Just look at this

Eddie Murphy actually really IS 5'9...and Michael is clearly shorter even though he has on shoes that give him a lot more height advantage over Eddie's much flatter shoes! Michael was only 5'7 or about 169-170 cm MAX and that's it. That's also exactly the way he looked with George Lucas too. NOT 5'9, not 5'8...but just about 5'7! Barely an inch taller than a well known 167 cm guy!
And if people STILL refuse to understand this very simple and obvious fact then there's nothing I can do. You just go ahead and believe in lies but I'd much rather stick to the TRUTH. Asera says on 8/Feb/11

I don't know if the whole autopsy report is a fake...but the height measuring definitely IS! One thing is sure at least, we know that at least when Michael was still ALIVE he was never more than 5'7 without shoes on. For some odd reason they're still lying about his height, I can't imagine why though. It's not like it's very difficult for anyone to see for themselves that he wasn't really 5'9.
We can all see ourselves from evidence that he was NOT over 5'7 ever.
Funny thing is, they did already admit ( Click Here ) that in the 80's he was the same height and weight as Fred Astaire. So 5'7 and about 100 lbs in his 20's. Great height for a dancer! Anorexic if that weight is true unfortunately. It's really obvious he was never a big man in any kind of way. VERY small, slight and slender actually. At least by the "western" standards!
It's actually quite ridiculous to claim he was 5'9. An affirmant in Tokyo says on 7/Feb/11
A Japanese famous singer (Hiromi Go) who was a huge MJ fan, visited Michael courteously at his suite in Tokyo in the late 80's. It was MJ's first solo world tour (Bad World Tour). The Japanese singer recalls, his first impression of Michael was, (MJ was) shorter than he had expected. The singer's height is 5 ft 9 in (175 cm). 175 cm man doesn't think 175 cm man shorter. Obviously his 'short' means MJ was under 175 cm tall.
Very suggestive reminiscences. Msec says on 7/Feb/11
5'7 is 170 cm or even 171 not 167 get your facts straight. And Michael looked 5'9-5'10. He had long limbs, so I would go for 5'8. Mainly because he was shorter than Eddie Murphy who is 5'9 and Paul. alex says on 6/Feb/11
Anonymous: 5'7 (167 cm?). Are you for real?Next you're going to say that he was 4'0.You haters hate Michael so much that the internet is full of your lies.
Now it appears that Michael was even shorter than his father, his ex-wife Debbie and Whitney Houston who are both over 173 cm!Standing next to all of them Michael was still taller even without heels so he sure wasn't 167 cm.
How could Michael have been 167 cm when every video of him and his ex wife Debbie that I see he is taller than her even without his heels and SHE IS NOT A SMALL WOMEN!
You people think that we all are stupid to believe your hating ****?
You keep your unfair crap for yourself.Maybe Michael wasn't 180 cm or so but he sure wasn't 167 cm(5'7) either.
Yeah he was between 175-176cm. alex says on 6/Feb/11

I really don't think there's anyone around who seriously believes the obvious lies about MJ being 5'9, no matter what they try to claim. He's just never even looked like he's any more than 5'7 so obviously he WAS that height or maybe even shorter. If he was really 5'9 he wouldn't have needed high heeled boots to LOOK like he's 5'9! So 5'7 it is! Ignite says on 2/Feb/11
Maybe especially his very long arms and legs, his broad shoulder and his big hands...have made illusions to the people that he is a tall man.
Legendary superstars have features in common that the mediocre never have. Asera says on 2/Feb/11
Also 5'7 is NOT short at all really! In China and Asia in general he was pretty much average height for a man and most women there are only about 5'1 or 5'2 like this girl

Look at videos of Michael in Japan, he doesn't really stand out from the crowd at all there

You decide... Msec says on 2/Feb/11
Well,never would I tought that Michael was less than 5'9, but some pictures show it, so he can't be the same height as someone as tall as 5'7 and 6'0 and in some pictures he is, so it's very confusing.I agree he was wearing heeled boots, and it's OK, but he had very long legs, could this be the reason for the ilussion? Or was he really 5'10? Could someone explain this, how could he have the proportions of a 5'10 guy and be 5'7? Asera says on 1/Feb/11
Anyone who still stubbornly insists that Michael was really 5'9 is simply out of their mind or in denial about the truth! ONLY in his heels was he ever that tall!The picture of Michael and Lucas right next to each other proves without any doubt that he was never over 5'7. Lucas is around 167 cm, everyone knows that, and Michael is maybe a few cm or an inch at most taller. One inch from 5'6 is 5'7! He sure doesn't look 5'9 next to GL...and not 5'8 either! 5'7 flat is most accurate here. And not only that but other evidence shows this clearly as well. He could have been exactly 5'7 right after waking up. Maybe a little bit less most of the time as we all shrink a little during the day.

Even in the early 80's, Michael Jackson height was publicly said to be 175 cm.
And many people have doubted his real height, never thought he's over 175 cm.
Many sensible MJ fans accept the fact that his real height is at least 1 or 2 inches shorter. alex says on 30/Jan/11
Mr.Kaplan:You hater I could say the same thing about you.Just posting some random pictures where Michael looks smaller because he doesn't stand straight.

@Alex - Don't waste your time with Asera. Every celebrity I look at that has any relation to Michael Jackson he's there. Not talking about the celebrity at hand but instead Michael Jackson. He's obviously not a fan. He's obsessed rather then interested in his height.
I think Michael Jackson was about 5'8 at best. Maybe a centimeter or two shorter. He was very smart with his footwear. He ofter looked about 5'11 with shoes that had heels on them. |
