Oprah is 5'8"-5'10" - Did you see her next to Taylor Swift? Both were wearing heels. K. Reed says on 13/Sep/11
I was actually on the Oprah Winfrey show back in the late 1990's. I actually was standing next to her at one point in the show. I am 5'6 inches and she was at least 3 inches shorter than I was (she did not have on shoes at the time and I wore flats). edie says on 31/Aug/11
i thought she was much taller i guess it's the heels that she wears Jack says on 13/Jun/11
Oprah listed her height as 5'6.5" when she competed as miss black nahville but she seems way taller. She's almost as tall as her best friend gaily king who is well over six feet in heels. runt says on 5/Jun/11

If you look at photos of Stedman Graham (who is 6'6"), and Oprah, I would say that you might gather that Oprah is around 5'8" to 5'10." I've read that Oprah is taller than people guess that she might be. karen says on 20/May/11
Gayle said last night on Bravo's Watch what Happens Live that she is 5'10" and Oprah is only an inch or two shorter than her. She's got to be 5'8". A guy I worked with years ago was a guest on Oprah's show and said he was surprised at how tall she was. J.J. says on 20/May/11
Gayle King is 5'8" but they said she claims 5'10" lisagoodeyes says on 27/Mar/11
It's become the norm for celebrities, even the very tall, such as Tyra Banks, Uma Thurman and Charlize Theron to wear very high heels. The taller they are the slimmer they look, and this helps with photographs and videos which are not quite true reflections of the body, because everyone looks heavier.
As far as Oprah, she has been lying about her height since the age of 18 when she filled out the application form for the Tennessee pageant as her height being 5 foot six inches and her measurements as 36-24-36. Many photos over the years show she is closer to 5 foot four probably even less now with age. She always wears LOUBOUTIN shows on the show with their red soles, the heels are between 5 and 6 inches and sometimes there is a platform as well, she walks with difficulty in them, hard to balance yourself when you are very heavy. But these will make you look much slimmer with the added height of a wig or hair piece. Kate says on 15/Dec/10
asians don't bind their feet anymore. you can't find anyone that does that except old women in chinese countrysides...mon: trust me taller ppl look large always, even when theyre skinny and short ppl have smaller frames so they'd look slimmer, but oprah is just a large boned person and its more than laziness if she has a professional chef and trainers and still cant loose the weight, maybe shes just stressed or its genetics. she's a good height and 5'5-6 is right since she doesnt look particularly tall or short. and no height doesnt determine height because i hav a friend who is a size 9 and shes 5'3 Danimal says on 4/Nov/10
She used to claim a height of 5'6.5"... She's almost 60 years old. Could be a flat 5'5" today (due to age and all that weight she carried around for all those years).. lookagain says on 4/Nov/10
Oprah has been lying about her height (and weight and measurements) since she participated in the Miss Black Nashville beauty pageant in 1971. That is the document everyone refers to ever since, but there is no proof that information is accurate. The pageant has restrictions about size, they want the ladies to be close in height on the stage, you wont see a 5 foot tall or a 6 foot tall. If you look at many older pictures, there is one with Quincy Jone who is 5 foot 6 inches, and she is shorter than him in heels. Compare her pal Gayle King who is supposed to be 5 foot seven, Oprah is at least 3 inches shorter. I think Oprah Winfrey is between 5 foot 3 and 4 inches. Those shoes are 6 inches high, she can't walk in them but likes to greet her TV guests in them. |
