Nicole Kidman Height
Nicole Kidman height: 5 ft 10.5 in (179 cm)

Australian actress famous for Interpreter, Days of Thunder. After her split with Tom Cruise she remarked, 'I can wear heels again!'. She can be seen in a lot of premiere photos with Cruise doing some subtle leaning to de-emphasize her height. On 60 minutes she revealed that "I'm five ten and a half, but I think now maybe I've grown a half an inch and I'm five eleven. I was this height when I was 13 years old!". She does look a genuine 179cm.

"I think people are overestimating Kidman's height and underestimating Brad Pitt's height. The reason I bring them both up is because if you search for any pics of the two, Kidman never exceeds Pitt's height whether she has on heels or not"

That idea has merit.

"And don't get me started on Pitt being a lift wearer, his height is way too consistant to be one and his body are in proper proportions compared to other people."

Many think that Pitt actually is not well-proportioned. There's a rumor going around that he is proportioned sorta like Michael Phelps with the long torso and that he uses lifts to balance out his proportions.

I thought I said this before (shouldn't the old comments be archived?) but she said she was 5'10 in a tv interview I saw probably 10 years ago now. She said she wished she was more like 5'7 as she thought she was too tall for a woman. The interviewer was asking about Tom's height and she said there was not much difference between their heights and he was 'only about an inch shorter'. This was on Channel 4 in UK when they had a movie review show (can't remember the name of it).
John says on 27/Aug/08
In the pic posted by timber, they look exactly the same height and if you list urban being 5-8 and a half, it's impossible she is over 5-10 on that pic. Kidman is 5-10 tops.
timber says on 25/Aug/08
runt, it's JMHO, but I think the reason Kidman and Urban appear very close in height in the pic I posted is because his posture is alot better than usual, not because he is taller than is listed here. He seems to be slouching in other pics I've seen. Kidman's posture is always much better.

Anyway, here's a picture of Kidman next to Ron Howard who is listed here at 5'9, and she appears a bit shorter than he. No shoes to see but I doubt Howard has ever been a lift wearer. (And if he was, I doubt he would wear them in the presence of Cruise!) Click Here
runt says on 25/Aug/08
timber, there have been several Kidman-Urban pics posted that show a small height difference. Since these are the only pics in existence where Kidman looks short, I tend to think it throws Keith Urban into question moreso than Kidman. He might be taller than we think.
timber says on 21/Aug/08
I'm sure no one here will agree, but I still don't think Kidman is even close to 5'10 1/2, the reason being that it is extremely unlikely that Keith Urban is over 5'8" and in this pic Kidman appears his height. Click Here I think she is at most an inch taller than he. 5'10 1/2 is her height in 3" heels IMO.
Dude says on 19/Aug/08
Tall women coming out of the wood work at the Olympics. Specially in Volleyball. They must be growing them in a lab in China. I mean wow, never saw Asian women so tall here in the states. They made 5'10" women look short on TV. On the other hand the gymnastic girls were smaller than a 10 year old. Just goes to show all sizes can be extraordinary.
Mr. R says on 5/Aug/08
I still believe that Nicole is at least 5-11, if not a little taller. I met her the night she won her Oscar, and she was wearing at least two inch heels, and I was looking up at her.
Dude says on 3/Aug/08
Good for u Katrina u can wear those heels, specially if your boyfriend doesn't mind. Tall or short women should wear what they want and feel good about it. Both can be very hot.

If u look good tall or short men (or gay women) will find u attractive.

Women have to realize that it is no big deal to tower your man if you are well above average height for a woman. That's commen for tall women in heals, nobody pays it any mind. If a woman is 5'2" and towers her man that may raise a little more curiosity, but again who cares. If the man is confident with himself and the woman is as well, then there are no issues... Just enjoy life!
katrina says on 22/Jul/08
im 5'9.5 at 14 i just turned 15 im supposed to be 6'1 so i always hated being tall but im obsessed with nicole kidman and we are onli about not even 2 inches apart and my boyfriend is about 2 inches shorter then me like her husband keith so i should wearr heels it doesnt matter who tall you are as long as youu go with it and flaunt it. which i do and i loveee beingg tall! jsut like herrr!
runt says on 19/Jul/08
I think she's not over 5-10.5 because in her heels she's still slightly shorter than David Letterman. At 5-11.5 I think she would beat him with those heels.
Debbie says on 28/Jun/08
I think Nicole is a beautful woman regrdless of how tall she is. The beauty of a woman is not in her height, but in her countance. I'm a very petite, only 5'2" but I think I'm beautiful because of the woman I am inside.
Baker says on 27/Jun/08
I'm just a tad short of 5'11" and she's a bit taller than me. So maybe she's 5'11.5"?
rusty says on 4/Jun/08
NICOLE KIDMAN is definitely 5'10.5 and now i think she's 5'11. when we see her with t.cruise, we can clearly see dat she's at least 3.5-4 inches taller than him. u can tell by her body dat she's really tall...........
runt says on 1/Jun/08
Just saw one of her early films called "Windrider". She has several barefoot scenes with her costar Tom Burlinson. I've never doubted her 5-10.5 but this one is weird. Burlinson is a very short-armed guy who doesn't seem like he could be 5-9 in a million years, yet NK never looks like she has more than 1" to 1.5" on him when they are barefoot. When they are both in shoes she does, so it looks like she has an added footware advantage. if they were shooting camera angles to favor Burlinson why just do it when they are barefoot? Or maybe Burlinson is 5-9. Or maybe NK grew after 19 (which is when the film came out).

"Am I the only one who is getting sick of readin comment threads of tall women ( Nicole Kidman, Sigourney Weaver etc...)and finding all these posts about how
tall all these various women who are posting are and then the subsequent argument about how beautiful they must be nor not be compared to shorter women?"
No way, your not the only one!!!
dmeyer says on 29/Apr/08
she could shrink 1 cm in the next 10 years
C. says on 28/Apr/08
@ Ed Kline: That's because you have all of these people turning these threads into this tall vs. short business which is just ridiculous. And then of course people not going to the general height thread to discuss such matters.

Dude is right. If you're attractive regardless, you are going to garner a lot of positive attention (as well as negative from haters of course) from the opposite sex. It's natural. And if you look like Nicole Kidman, then all the better I suppose. As for tall women, given that there are less of them period, there are less attractive ones due to sheer numbers. It seems that people don't seem to understand statistics or just the simple fact that genes period determine one's physical attributes. Height has nothing to do with it.

@ Josh: Kidman usually is quite all over the place when stating her height, but I think 179 is right. She could be a hair smaller, but regardless the woman is nothing less than 5'10". She looks consistently this height.
Paul says on 28/Apr/08
its weird because in some pictures she looks the same height has keith urban like the on of them in sandals together. And in some she looks a good 2 inches taller then him. I would give her 5'9.5 to 5'9.75.
JOSH says on 22/Apr/08
Ive heard her true height is 5ft 10.25 inches which is just over five 10.

Ann is retarded, as are most of the chicks posting here about their own height as opposed to the celeb in question.
Rob, I know its hard to manage the sight, and in general you've done a great job, but how are all these posts getting through, they are literally ruining the Sigourney Weaver and Nicole Kidman threads.
Dude says on 18/Apr/08
Ann is funny. But reality missed her. There are plenty of beautiful tall women, some models for example. But the reality is there are plenty more beautiful women all under 5'6" just because of the fact that less women reach heights above 5'9". Because this is rare, society sometimes makes a big deal of it. But as a man I will attest to the fact that any beautiful woman entering a room can make an impression, not just a really tall one. Confidence is very important, tall or short sometimes women lack this confidence, which for some reason men have more of. Which is why some short men would date or approach taller women or tall men go for short women, while tall women think they have no chance with a guy too tall or too short.
Women need to be more confident and go for the guy or girl that treats them right, height is not relevant unless you are in an abusive relationship. If so get the hell out now, don't be morons.
gregory Weaver says on 15/Apr/08
hello everyone, just reading through some comments here and i just wanted to know if anyone here actually has any female friends above the height of 5ft11? what im looking for is if there is a consistency in women who have this beauty coupled with 'height'? also has anyone here any more than at least 10 female friends over such a height of around 5'11 - 6'3/4?
just wanted to ask so i could make some evaluations and add this to some thoughts!:)
thank you.
Johnny says on 14/Apr/08
I am 5'10", and it's average, but when I stand next to my female friend she is 5'10" too but she looks bigger. It's because you don't see females over 5'7" very often and when they're your heighth or taller it's always different, but no matter what heighth all women can look awesome!

Tina says on 9/Apr/08
I met keith two years ago, he was wearing sneekers, I was wearing sandles. I'm 5'9 1/2. I asked him how tall he was and he said 5'10. I just saw a pic of him and nicole walking together they were both bare foot. and they looked to be the same height. I think she is so beautful and is so because she is tall. She looks great in everything she wears. I just wish she would let her hair go back to red, it was so much prettier then the washed out blond, and what happened to her freckles.
anonymous says on 9/Apr/08
really nice ann. short men should stay with small women. I have a neighbor who is 5`4, and his wife is 5`9. And mimi is right. Being extra tall does not correlate to beauty. Prime examples are: Jordin Sparks, Gabriel Reece, nicole bass, and jeanne robertson. Besides, there are a lot of short men who might take that offensively... such as leonari, who likes to make showcases of people with such views...
Anonymous says on 9/Apr/08
Wow, that was harsh. I am 6'0" woman and wear 3' or higher heels almost daily at work. I wouldn't call myself drop-dead-gorgeous, but I at least like to think that when I walk in a room that it's my presnece that makes people stare. I don't know the last time you saw a particularly tall woman, but take a trip to any local volleyball tournament and you'll see some tall women that resemble nothing like your-"Inga from the Netherlands".
mimi says on 9/Apr/08
gonna have to disagree with ann. sorry if i sound offensive, but in my experience, most tall women are not very beautiful. i've rarely seen a very tall woman that is also beautiful. i do agree though that nicole is one. she's gorgeous. i still wouldn't want to be that tall, though. i think most women that height THINK they're beautiful bc they have a model's height, but i just don't see it.

and true, when a tall woman enters the room ppl do look, but i think it's usually bc it's not common to see women that height. ppl will also look when a little person enters a room. it's not necessarily in flattery, ann.

regardless ..beauty does come in all shapes and sizes, but height alone does not give you beauty.
ann says on 9/Apr/08
tall is beautiful and nicole proves it. Women that are tall control the room when they enter short women get lost in the crowd. Tall women be proud!!!! Short men chase after them due to thier Napoleon complex, short men stay with your small women do us a favor!!!!
nicole says on 5/Apr/08
Im 5'11", maybe a little taller and Im only 15. Im really hoping that once im out of highschool, I'll be introduced to taller men. Nicole Kidman is so lucky to be a celebrity with her hieght because she knows many people and chances are a few of them are taller than her. I might want to be a model one day, I just dont know where or how to start.
Rach says on 3/Apr/08
I'm 175 cm, and used to worry about my height too, but i have grown into it - my husband is a little shorter than me and i think it's awesome that he's man enough not to have an issue with it. Growing so fast as a teenager was pretty sucky and i got the model comments too - people just don't get it! I say embrace your height - you'll grown into it and you'd miss being able to see all the action if you lost it!!!
Emilie says on 30/Mar/08
Anon- Don't worry about being tall. It's not something that you should worry about, not everything should be judged by height. Plus, whilst you might not want to be a model, the possibility is always there.
As for Nicole Kidman I think that as many people have said, she carries her height very well and looks quite elegant!
runt says on 28/Mar/08
Those are great pics timber! There are only two scenarios that explain those pics. 1: Urban is 5-10.5 in shoes which makes him 5-9 minimum barefoot. Or Nicole is a tad shorter than 5-10.5, maybe 5-10ish. Absolute minimum 5-9.5
Anon says on 28/Mar/08
I'm just a bit shorter than Nicole Kidman and I hate it. I'm nearly 14 and I'm worried I'm still growing. It annoys me because people keep on saying I can be a model, just because I have the height. I'm like: but I don't want to be a model! I know there are people out there who want to be my height but it still doesn't make me feel any better. I want to wear heels and still be shorter than people.

I think it's great that we have tall female celebrities to help people like me, as a lot of other celebrities I like are way shorter than me, around five two or five three.

riko no way that is the world height average for male and females. I doubt the world averages are higher than the U.S. averages. Some few countries have higher avg than US , but world avg decreases.

PS Courtney good you wear heels at 5'10" that can be sexy but so can a 5'1" woman, its not the height, its the shape and length of the legs with your frame that make it hot. Not to mention the skin tone and rest of proportions. For example Jessica Beil, Eva Longoria, Halli Berri, Rebbecca R-Stamos, all differnt heights, short and tall but with legs that look hot with their frames.
riko says on 17/Feb/08
actually the average world heights for girls is 5-6 and for guys its 5-10
redrum says on 29/Jan/08
The average female is 5-4 like Suzy said and the average man is 5-9. The medians are higher than the averages though. The median male height is closer to 5-10 and the median female might be closer to 5-5. The median is the point where half the population is above it and half the population is below it. That's not the same as average.
Courtney says on 16/Jan/08
Don't listen to them Adelaide, I'm 5'10 (22 yrs old) and I wear heels whenever I want... girls tell me all the time that they're jealous and guys love it. Tall girls have the best legs, remember that ;)

Nicole always looks very sleek and graceful, one of the few starlets who could also model. I think she's every bit of 5'10.
Rose says on 16/Dec/07
I love Nicole Kidman. She totally owns her height with grace~

Adelaide, be proud of your height! I'd love to be 5'8". I'm only about 5'6" (I could be a little shorter). So, be happy :).
Adelaide Sibanda says on 7/Dec/07
I hate my height. I'm 5'8 and only 16 and that worries me coz i might be still growing. And people keep keep giving comments and that makes me feel down.
Antron says on 6/Dec/07
Voodoo, still is more like 5'5" for W and a smidge below 5'10" for M in the US, a generation is not enough to bump an average of 5'4" to 5'6" for women, sorry...
Also you meant to write 'as follows'
voodoo doll says on 18/Nov/07
To Suzy just so u know, for the new generation the hights are as followed.
Ave. woman - 5'5/5'6
Ave. man - 5'10
john says on 30/Oct/07
looking some pics, she wears 3 inches heels, and looks 2 inches taller than tom cruise, so she is 5'10 max. And she says "but I think now maybe I've grown a half an inch and I'm five eleven", she says "maybe", and maybe she hasn't check her height, "maybe" is the same.

dmeyer says on 13/Oct/07
with bad posture can look 5'10 but i think she could be 5'10.75 also i remember frank2 saying she is 5'10 but then he said she looked 6'2 in heels so she is gotta be near 5'11
Suzy says on 12/Oct/07
I'm 6' tall and I met Nicole and I was surprised that she was at least a couple inches shorter than me - and I wasn't wearing heels (1/2" max). I belive that she is 10'5" or 11' tall max! I think she looks taller because she is very slim. And since the average height of a US women is 5'4" and weighs ten pounds more than Nicole (Nicole weighs 140 & the average is 150 lbs)- if you put Nicole next to an average woman, she will look much taller. And the average US man is 5' 9" and if you put Nicole next to most men she will be at least a couple inches taller (then add the height of her heels). I do think she is telling the truth.
Belle says on 30/Sep/07
My friend, who is 5'11'' even, met Nicole in a resteraunt and stood next to her. They were both wearing flats and were completely eye-to-eye, so I think she's just an inch shy of 6 feet.
irshgrl500 says on 28/Sep/07
As far as her looks and talent are concerned, I think she's stunning and a great actress. She was incredible as Virgina Woolf in "The Hours". I am not sure I buy 5'11" or even 5'10 1/2". Nicole CONSTANTLY lies in interviews, and her word just can't be relied upon. I apologize to all her fans. I would have to see a pic of she and Glenn (who is a solid 5'8") before I accept she's 5'10" or whatever!
john says on 26/Sep/07
looking some pics, she looks 5-9, and with her heels she can look easly as 5'11.

I think she is 5'11, or so, she looked tall in that movie invasion. I would love to look like her.

she could have very well grow 0.5 in after than 13 =years old musurments i think she could be 5'11

she can realy look 6'1.5 to 6 ft 2 person in her heels how come if she is 5'10.5 she shouldnt look over 6'0.5 in in heels
dmeyer says on 17/Aug/07
how come she can look as tall as 6'3 stelan and easily as tall as 6 ft 1 eastwood when she wears big heels like 3.5 to 4 in she can look 6'1.5 like 6'2.5 in heels and we all know those give only 2.5 max 2.75 in

i have to agree with you anonymous rex, she would not be happy being 5`2. although i question her being 5`11 next to her 5`8.5 husband. i believe 5`10.5 at best.
mysterygirl says on 12/Jun/07
well, i said that these ladies are similar in elegance, not in beauty because there are all very different in beauty.i don't think that nicole has dropped out of style, but she is shy in her sexiness...

Agreed. Anonymous Res. She said she wished she was 5-2. Well she could "reel" 5-2 sometimes if she would just get with a tall enough dude.
Anonymous Rex says on 8/Jun/07
I don't believe her when she sais she's uncomfortable with her height. 1.She does wear heels. 2 She's into short men! I've never heard of her dating or being seriously connected with a 6 footer! You mean to tell me she can't find a guy whose even 5-11 with money and a personality?????
Dreg says on 6/Jun/07
mysterygirl, her tiny bone structure is the reason why at 5-10 she can be so graceful. And if you think she's tiny on film, try in person! NK is way prettier than kristin scott thomas. diane lane and rachel weisz come somewhat closer in photos. Those three can only compete in manner and elegance. But NK is 40 and out of style. That's why Diane Lane is on all the hot chick lists and NK dropped out long ago.
Bud says on 6/Jun/07
If she could do a reverse Stallone with limb shortening surgery crop off 1-3 inches, she would be absolutely flawless.

this woman is so elegant and graceful,nothing dirty manners and behaviour,i don t think that there is any actress except rachel weisz an kristin scott thomas and maybe diane lane that can compete with her...such a beauty.i would say that she is at least 5'10.but,too bad,that she never liked her height.she said that she wants to be smaller and curvier,and smaller an curvier girls mostly want to be like her...sad life:)
Aaron says on 3/Jun/07
Timber, why would a female actress say such an exact height (5'10.5" in the above quote) if she was 5'8-5'9? I could see a male actor adding inches to their height, but tall female actresses generally like to downplay their height, not lie about being taller than they really are. I do agree with you though on how her bone structure makes her appear even taller, but she really doesn't need any help in that department.
vandal says on 16/May/07
how much does she weigh? with her small bone structure i bet she would be a quite the flyweight if she were only 5-8.
robotix says on 10/May/07
Last time I saw her on Jay Leno, I'd say she's near 6' if Jay Leno is really 5'10"
anonymous says on 1/May/07
the photos have not been touched. it is very hard to alter a picture and not have it look odd (such as pixel size or smudges). besides, it came from a magazine. they wouldn't touch it. they are always the ones saying how she is 5`10.5 and he is 5`10. Although i doubt either of them are that height ;).
timber says on 30/Apr/07
urban must have a slope advantage in that pic, because i doubt he is over 5'8, and may be shorter than that. i think kidman must be 5'8-5'9 and appears 5'10-5'11 in person simply because she is extremely slim and carries herself well.
dmeyer says on 30/Apr/07
rob how can urban looks 1 in taller than her when they are both in sandals maybe the pics have been touched

She is taller. I know it. I'm her personal hair dresser when she come in Naples. She always eats sfogliatelle from scaturchio in the centre of the city.
SusieS says on 13/Apr/07
I saw Nicole Kidman in person in NYC, she was on the street. I'm 5'8" and she was definitely a good few inches taller than me, and her shoes were completely flat (we actually captured her on video and I can assure you her shoes were FLAT). She is definitely at least 5'10".
anonymous1 says on 6/Apr/07
I agree with both timbers and anonymous's comments. I have more evidence to show that Nicole is 5'8.5" to 5'9".Just go to youtube.com to watch ellen degeres show. You will realise that the height difference btn Ellen and Nicole(who was in 4" heels) is the same as the height difference btn Ellen and Storm Large(who is 5'11"-6' and was in flats).This shows Nicole is 6'-6'1" in 4" heels and this makes her 5'9" tall.
timber says on 5/Apr/07
right, anonymous. she is in flat sandals, he is in flip flops, and the height difference I expected to see is simply not there. she is supposed to be nearly 3 inches taller than he.
anonymous says on 4/Apr/07
her legs look straighter in the second angle. and he still is taller.
timber says on 31/Mar/07
I see what you meant now, anonymous.

one of his legs is bent, anonymous. anyway,here's another pic from the same day, but a better angle: Click Here

although he is walking straight-legged, and if you notice, she has both of her legs bent. I guess that could count for something.

Found this very confusing pic of Kidman with 5-8ish Urban:Click Here
Is it the angle, or because they are walking? In other non-heelpics she always appears taller. Still...interesting.

keith isnt 5-10.he might be 5-7 as well.saw barefoot pics of them on the beach and she towers him too.
BooYaJared says on 18/Mar/07
Nicole Kidman is certainly 5'11. It was reported her first public statement after her divorce with Tom Cruise (5'7) was "Now I can wear heels." Also she is not that much taller than her husband Keith Urban (5'10) but is rarely seen without heels on which would make her appear much, much taller. 4 or 5 inches even depending on the heel. She is the epitome of perfection! <3
AirSky says on 16/Mar/07
To me, she does look 5'11", maybe even taller. Watching her co-star with Will Ferrell on "Bewitched", the difference seems to be about 2 or 3 inches (in a scene where "Isobel" is apparently wearing sneakers/athletic-type shoes) of course, you might wanna check that out for yourself. Will Ferrell apparently is 6'3" from all sources.

if high heels give you only 2.5 inches over barefeet so compare to 1 to 1.25 normal dress shoes it give then only 1.5 in advantage how come nicole looks 6'1 in heels she should look only 6 ft and blanchet looks 5'11 in heels also holmes can lok 6 ft in huge heels and they all wear very slim frot like 0.25 in is the beginig of the shoes

nicole appeared about 4 inches taller than ellen degeneres on her show.ellen is 5-7 in shoes, so 5-11 for nic. however, nicole was not wearing flats, she was wearing 3 inch heels: Click Here
Elle says on 27/Jan/07
Since my contribution in December, I just read some of the comments by people who are sure Nicole Kidman is anything but 5'11", and they base it all on how she looks in films or pictures. Well, unless you met her in person, and spent ten minutes or so talking with her (like I did, and we were both wearing flats and exactly eye to eye), you are wrong! So, please take my word for it, I was there and she's exactly five eleven. Also, she was very nice to me. Not pretentious in the least. But Julianne Moore, (who was also standing with us), wasn't too happy being overshadowed by us both by about half a foot, and had a bit of an envious, bitchy attitude. Not everyone can be tall, gorgeous goddesses!

Nicole Kidman Quote:

"Oh God. I’d much prefer to have curves. My daughter is 5 foot 2 and curvy—she’s everything I wanted to be,” Kidman was quoted as saying by Contactmusic.
“I wish I wasn’t 5 foot 11. I’d like to be 5 foot 2. I have always had trouble putting on weight. I’d like to be like Marilyn Monroe."

...Tall women want to be petite/shorter and short women want to be taller.

But 5'10.5-5'11" is right.
timber says on 9/Jan/07
that quote from Antonia is strange, because in pics I've seen recenty of Nicole with her mum her mum appears nowhere near 5-10, maybe 5-7 max.
Glenn says on 5/Jan/07
Sometimes Nicole is alone.sometimes has henchmen.the once easy,Paris and Lohan are tough to get near,Bodyguards,friends,entourage,Papparazi,geez.glad I got them.Simpson sisters are sweet,only Papparazi in the way,which kills it anyway.50 cent is nice,but his entourage gets in your way.Busta might be headed for all time worse,as he beats up fans,drivers,and his security recently threatened bloodshed on me.no lie.pure trash.
Glenn says on 4/Jan/07
If she isnt 5-11,she is 5-10.no smaller.I bumped into her plenty of times.ignores people usually.

[Editor Rob: who these days is impossible to get near, going over the top with security/entourage?]

I now Nicole Kidman is not 5 foot 11,that's a lie. I saw her in movies in 2 inch hills and she not look 6 foot 1 inches tall. If I were to guest her true height I would guest 5 foot 7 or f 5 foot 8 inches tall. In 2 inch hills she would be 5 foot 10 or 5 foot 9. She is not defiantly 5 foot 11

Her sister Antonia in 2002: "I'm 5ft 10 and a quarter, so is Nicole and so is Mum. When we're together we're all stooping, trying to be the smallest"
Elle says on 9/Dec/06
I know for sure how tall Nicole Kidman is, because after a screening of "The Hours" and a question and answer session, I went up to talk with her. We were both wearing flats and EXACTLY the same height. I am (blonde and slender and) 5'11" tall, and so is she. (A friend who was with me at the screening and watched us talking also verified that we didn't differ by even a fraction of an inch).
sleuth says on 4/Dec/06
I don't care what anybody sais and I don't care about polls. Nicole is still the most gorgeous creature in Hollywood
Extra says on 1/Dec/06
I saw her in person on a movie set - I'd have to say she's over 5'11".
Brad says on 1/Dec/06
I saw a recent picture of Urban & NK. She made him look like a boy. Is he really 5' 8"? I'd believe 5' 7". She was towering over him big time.
Brad says on 16/Nov/06
5' 10" is probably right. Cruise packed on the inches and posture on those red carpets.
Jason says on 9/Nov/06
Really? My Dad - who's never met her or anything - thinks she's a nice person lol.
Glenn says on 8/Nov/06
She is 5-10 at the very least.I keep bumpin into her.always ignores me and almost everyone.
Brad says on 7/Nov/06
She wears 3" heels all over the place so she seems very tall. Actually she is.
Tall Girl says on 15/Oct/06
Luck you, eeva. I'm, hopefully, still growing and maybe will tower over Kidman too. 5'10.5" just isn't enough.
anonymous2 says on 15/Oct/06
dumbdude, your links aren't working
eeva says on 14/Oct/06
hey little people, my height is 186cm and it feels goooood! :) no problem and if nicole would stand next to me she would look short.
Tall Girl says on 11/Oct/06
Oh, and in Peacemaker, the camera doesn't really show Kidman and Clooney side by side that much. So it's actually hard to tell. But I still must insist she's 5'10.5". She has to be.
Tall Girl says on 11/Oct/06
I think George Clooney must wear lifts, like most guys probably do in Hollywood. And what about that movie Cold Mountain (where Kidman doesn't wear much of a heel), where she stands eye to eye with the 5'11" Jude Law? And you'll notice she slouches when she's starring with guys who are almost her height, like in Moulin Rouge.
tall girl says on 9/Oct/06
I am positive that Kidman is 5'10 1/2". I am also five ten and a half, and from my perspective she is definately that height. And she's standing next to Theron, who is obviously tall judging from Aeon Flux.
dumbdude says on 26/Sep/06
I just can't see Kidman as being over 5 9. I think 5.8 and some change is the best rating to give her. Tom looked to be extremely short in the 80's, even up against short people like Dustin Hoffman(Hoffman states he's 5 5, I really think the dude is closer to 5 3) and Rebecca Demorney(states she's 5 6, probably closer to 5 foot 4). Kidman is about 3 inches taller than the 5 5 to 5 5 and a half Cruise, which would put her in the 5 8 to 5 8.5 range. Throw in some heels and her naturally slender build, and the chick can easily look about 6 feet or over in pictures.
ken_hiroshi_ says on 12/Sep/06
hi anonymous, the pic can't prove right both plp height,look closely the photo angle was not right nicole stands far back and lenny stands much front, we can't see their legs or foot wear.. but nicole might still be taller as shes 5ft10..

[Editor Rob: out of bed...yes]
Karen says on 7/Aug/06
Bleemo, I agree she does look a couple inches taller than Urban. (But now I'm doubting the 5'7/5'8 for Urban.) Kidman looks tall because she 'is' tall, but I still doubt the 179 cm-- I'm the only one here that does though.
Brad says on 7/Aug/06
5' 10". I'm sure she told producers early in her career 5' 8" to get roles with Cruise etc.. Being tall as an actress can hurt casting calls. Can you imagine Kidman with Pacino, Hoffman, etc..
Natalie says on 3/Aug/06
She is very tall!I am sure she is 179 cm. In "The Interpreter" she was standing next to Sean Penn and she was much more taller than him. So that makes Nicol Kidman 177-179 cm.
Glenn says on 13/Jul/06
Ill accept Kidman at 5-10 even.nothing more,or less.Cruise could look like a midget next to her.FINALLY got Uma yesterday.tough to get her to pose.between 6-1 to 6-3 in heels.hard to peg,as I had to move fast.
Karen says on 13/Jul/06
Also, there have been alot of pics with her out walking with Keith Urban who is 5'7-5'8 and she simply doesn't look that much taller than him, at least to me. Click Here
Glenn says on 11/Jul/06
The reason people keep insisting Karen,is cause people like me keep bumping into her in all kinds of footwear and situations.film sets,events,and downtime.she IS around 5-10,possibly more.
sianna says on 10/Jul/06
i think she is 5'11..she is very tall and tall people in hollywood downgrade their height...short people are the ones who add on an inch or 2
Karen says on 9/Jul/06
I don't understand why people insist on believing her 5'10 1/2" claim. She has to add 2 inches. It's required in Hollywood! She is no more than 5'9, max IMO.
Glenn says on 5/Jul/06
Thats not me commenting.some a**hole.as for Frank,hopefully he will be back or he will be sorely missed,even though,I think shaved 2 inches off of everyone.what pissed him off?

Frank, that is not the answer I was looking for.

Unfortunately, I've never met or seen Keith Urban, but I'll take your word on it.

She is 5-10.and urban is 5-8.back me on that Frank.

Evan, how do you know for sure that rodrigo santoro is 6'3"?
evan says on 9/May/06
look at her in the commercial for chanel no.5
shes with rodrigo santoro who is 6'3" and she is taller than him in heels!
shes probably about 5'11" and the 4-5 inch heels allows her to be taller than the guy. to all those people who keep trying to say celebrities add inches to their height, thats not exclusive to celebrities so its a moot point.
TBH says on 5/May/06
I was an extra in her upcoming movie "The Visting" with Daniel Craig(he's about 5'10) I'm 6ft tall and she was up there with me without heels. She's a legit 5'11.
Alex says on 23/Apr/06
Def in the 5'10.5-5'11 range, 5'11 wouldn't suprise me either. Gotta watch out for her heels though, even in sneakers she looks very tall. A girl at 13 and still the same height at 18 doesn't suprise me at all as many girls stop growing at 13 and most grow 1/2 inch more.
dmeyer says on 30/Mar/06
she might be 180
MeLiSsA says on 3/Mar/06
I don't think that she would add inches to her height if she complains about being tall. I just measured myself the other day and I'm a little under 5'7 so I just say I'm 5'6 because it's not really a lie...I'm in the 5'6 range. 5'6 and 3/4 or whatever. And I still complain about being tall. So that's like me saying I'm 5'8 or 5'9 and then being like I wish I was shorter.
Frank2 says on 2/Mar/06
Kidman is a doll! She's at least five ten. In Eyes she probably didn't wear shoes or wore ballerina slippers with no heels.
wasa says on 23/Feb/06
It's very strange that in Eyes wide shut there doesn't seem to be all that much height difference between Kidman and Cruise, even in the nude scenes. Kidman sure has some nice legs though ;)
Admirer of tall women says on 12/Feb/06
Yeah, she's well tall. I'm about 5ft 9, but when I saw her in person in London she seemed to tower over me. Most men would probs have to stretch to kiss her.
LAAnonyme says on 24/Jan/06
Tall actresses like to add extra inches to their height just as much as petie actresses do, even in Hollywood, because everyone aspires to the supermodel look - in height and weight. Nicole Kidman is accurate with the 5'10" to 5'10.5" estimation, but Miss Holmes embellishes when she claims to be 5'9". Kidman often wears high heels for appearances - formal couture shoes have heel heights of 3 to 4 inches, rarely 2 inches - and this added to her amazing posture can make her appear to tower over many. Tom Cruise wears lifts in his shoes, so no one can see that he's really 5'7".

I am sure that Katie Holmes is at least 175, because she confirms that!!! Tall girl never adds any extra height - especially in Hollywood!!! the same thing with Nicole Kidman...I think she is like 180! Maybe 179-181 (morning-evening). She is very tall, it is clear and she says herself that she would like to be shorter. As to Tom Cruz - yes, he must be 170 cm...
LAAnonyme says on 22/Dec/05
Katie Holmes is 5'8", not 5'9". (Tom Cruise is at most 5'7".) Nicole Kidman is 5'10" (perhaps she has that extra 1/2 inch in the early morning). She has excellent posture, however, and therefore appears even taller, especially next to people who slouch.
Jason says on 19/Dec/05
Where's the 5'9'' listing come from?
Liza says on 6/Dec/05
Kidman is very tall, in my opinion...Katie Holmes is 175 and when you see her with Tom Cruz - she is not much taller (even in heels). The height difference with Kidman was much more noticeable...I think she is really 180-182.
Victorina says on 10/Oct/05
Comment on what WHAT said...did you notice that Nicole Kidman had flats on while Toni Collette was wearing 3 inch heels? I'd say Kidman is 5'10.
Elise says on 10/Oct/05
I am sure, that Kidman is like 180-181...She is a tall lady.
berry says on 8/Oct/05
I'm confused. That makes Tom Cruise 5'6, doesn't it? Is that possible?

i think nicole is about 1 inch shoter than me i am about 182 cm imet will is about 6 3 but he wasnt tawering over me like he towers over her so 179 looks about right
JUSTMATT says on 24/Sep/05
Guys tonight Nicole was on italian tv. I saw her (on tv) near the presenter who I know for sure is more or less 178-180 with shoes on...well Nicole was very very tall. She had 4 inches heels but she seems more or less 15 cm taller than the introducer and everyone else in the studio. Sometimes I think Nicole can easily be 6', with shoes 6'3...maybe Cruise isn't so short...he could be 175 but because of his relationship with Nicole everybody starts saying he is short when in reality he is a normal height guy..I don't know! What I can say is that I was really surprised of Nicole's heights near all the other persons on the italian program!

nicole kidman is no longer than 5'9
she's as max 5'8 or 5'8'5 or 173 cm

Agree with you Kisha 100%. Finally somebody who says the truth! She is clearly no taller than 5'9. She adds 2 inches like everyone else. (Even models do this.)
mytwocents says on 3/Sep/05
Editor Rob: The photo you posted here is from Mr. X's Vanity Fair cover I believe. It does look as though there is a 3" difference to me. (Though we don't know the height of Uma and Nicole's heels.) If Uma is 6'1 then Nicole's 5'10 and a half is about right, but most people in the Thurman thread agree she is just under 6'.
Mr. R says on 31/Aug/05
Nate, I have met Nicole twice and I have the same impression. She is certainly on her way to 5-11, if not a little over.
~Nate~ says on 30/Aug/05
I met Nicole Kidman at the Interpreter premier a few months back, she's so very sweet and very pretty and so thin. But her height, I'm 6'1 and with her two inch heels she had on she towered over me. Nicole Kidman is not 5'10 I'd say she's at least 5'11 and change min.

Here is the People quote mentioned in a comment below: "I'd much prefer to have curves. My daughter is 5ft 2in and curvy - she's everything I wanted to be. I wish I wasn't 5ft 11in. I'd like to be 5ft 2in"
Michael says on 26/Aug/05
If Nicole "hates" being "taller than other people," then why does she always wear high heals in public? A self-contradiction if ever I saw one.

[Editor Rob: I think she's learned to say 'to hell with it'. A lot of the time in the 90's she did wear low sandals and very low heels. Nowadays she ain't afraid to don a 2.5-3 inch on occasion]
CelebHeights Editor says on 24/Aug/05
From an interview on Rosie O'Donnell back in 1997:

Rosie: "In the film [peackemaker] you appear smaller! Are you not?"

Nicole: "Yeah. No, I have this thing about liking to be small onscreen cause I hate being tall and I’m Five Ten and it’s the one thing I’ve always hated my whole life is being really tall and taller than people."

Clooney 'slumps down in his chair'

Nicole: "George would always say that he looks small onscreen because he always works with such tall women! But really you’re very tall!"

George: "Oh, I’m a giant! I’m 5’11."

Rosie: "But do you make yourself look smaller? What do you do?"

Nicole gets up at this point.

Nicole: "Well, I’ll show you. You do this. Stand up, George."

George: "I’m the mannequin."

Nicole: "so you go like this" [she then does the old hip sway bendy knees stance beside Clooney which is what you see a lot on Getty Images from her old days with Tom ;)] "You just put your hip out."

on the interpreter she didnt look much taller than his co star, cant remember his name, but she is probably a 1.78, and uma isnt that tall either, next to tarantino she doesnt look as tall...
Mr. R says on 19/May/05
Cliff, having met both Nicole and Uma, I completely agree. Both of them are taller than their reported heights. Nicole is at least 5-11, and Uma is over 6 feet!
JUSTMATT says on 27/Feb/05
Yeah I think she's very tall, 179-180cm it's right! This means that when she wears 10 cm heels she goes up to 190cm!!! Now I understand why she breaks with little Tom...
Swizzo says on 2/Feb/05
Hey Rob, there's a picture showing Nicole and Tobey (he does look 5ft 8 as he says he is) and she doesn't look the 5ft 11 she thinks. I think 5ft 10 is correct. It's on this page, scroll down to the bit Tobey and Kidman 2002 and the 4th image along: Tobey and Nicole.
