In the video clip drop it like it's hot, he is 18cm shorter than 6 foot 4 snoop dogg. 5 foot 9 seems right.
Jarnell says on 25/Nov/08
I get so tired of hearing people say 5'7 and 5'8 is short.What the heck are you people born in....a family of giants??? Anything above 5'6 is fine.Anything above 5'10 or 6' is tall.But 5'7 is not noticeably short.When you're my height(5'4) then you can talk short.

I saw Pharrell In Virginia i am 6ft and he was up to my nose so about 5ft8

Pharrell was at the rave sept. 25 in milwaukee, Wi he is 5'7 I am a true 5'9 and dude is short he stood right in front of me and gave the people hang shakes he is 5'7 with out a shout od doubt

I met Pharrell in Miami and I'm a legit 5'10 w/o shoes. Pharrell is 5'9.
BCC says on 24/Aug/08
On that pic with diddy,he looks like he's 5ft8in or less.I'm 5ft8.5in.My cousin is 5ft9.5in,but we look eksactly the same height so that means ,that Pharell is 5ft7in to look like a short with 5ft10in P.Diddy.This is my look at the things.
Asp says on 15/Aug/08
I saw P in Gothemburg, Sweden, last weekend, and when he jumped down from the stage and highfived the crowd, he didn't look this tall... I'm 180cm and he looked more like 173 och even 172... And I think why people think he looks even shorter is the fact that he has a relatviely big head, which makes his body "shorter", so his shoulders are a bit below someone else's shoulders, who has a relatively normalsized head
Cody 3D says on 9/Aug/08
He was on 106 in Park Aug. 6th 08 and the host Terrence has said in the past that he was 5'10" And Pharrell was about a half inch taller then him plus he had his hat on funny so I made him look even taller. P had on Van which don't have that much of a sole compared to the Jordans Terrence had on. I think its his build that make him seem short. but this is the clip.

With Kanye West, 5'8"...I really can't see Pharrell at 5'10"...More 5'9" to me...
Jay says on 27/Jul/08
Damn did you downgrade him alot? Just a few months ago I came on here and you had him listed at 5 ft 10.5

[Editor Rob: it was 5ft 8.5 he was at.]
Patricia says on 7/Jul/08
I really dont think that Pharrell could possibly be 5'9 it has to be the type of shoes that he wears or something else. He looks so tiny. But yet he is still so sexy no matter how short he is!
A_D says on 30/Jun/08
Its easy to tell how tall someone is, if you cant tell how tall someone is then u dont know how tall you are all you gotta do is see how tall u are and see if he looks taller or shorter than u its that easy I knew that pharrell was 5-9 before even went to this sight because im 5-9.5 and he looked my height
Ty says on 28/Jun/08
Btw im talkin about 5'9 with SHOES!!!!!!!!! so that makes him 5'8.
Ty says on 28/Jun/08
hes at least 5'8.5 no more than 5'9....oh and Chad is taller than P and Shae is taller aswell. Chad is not 5'7 he is most likely 5'10. I met them 27th of june 08, and im 5'8.5 and i seemed taller than P idk y, but maybe it was the ground. Anyways Shae and Chad are both taller than P. No way on earth he is more than 5'9. N he was rockin Vans so dont use any excuses, im not talkin about comparing pics im talkin about seeing them right infront of me and believe me he is no more than 5'9 and im being quite generous with that estimate he could be less.

shigg says on 26/Jun/08
I'm pretty sure he is 5'8" or 5'9" but he lots the same height as jonah hill in the photos below maybe even smaller which doesn't make much sense.
glenn says on 19/Jun/08
then i must be 5-5.people still ignore my pics.

I simply can't see him being over 5'8".
Anon says on 14/Jun/08
Just saw him in brixton academy, he seemed 5`8 to me. during the show, he came down from the stage, he was literally standing in front of me, he had flat thin soled trainers and he looked a solid 5`8.
Shon says on 31/May/08
I saw Pharrell in concert and Chris Brown was on stage with him I know Chris is 6ft 1 so I was guessing Pharrell was 5ft 8 or 5ft 9. He is taller than I thought he was I don't really care as long as he is taller than me lol.I still love him!
Nick says on 25/Apr/08
haha how does this guy get pics with all the celebs? And did u know Pharrell is 2 inches taller than timbaland?
Davey says on 24/Apr/08
He looks 5`7 to me but not in that pic with glenn
Ivery says on 11/Apr/08
he looks taller than 5'9 probably 5'10.But Hes still sexy.
Anonymous says on 30/Mar/08
Its kind of hard to believe that Pharrell Williams is 5'9 he looks much shorter.
bruce_wayne says on 7/Feb/08
jd what are you talking about?4 years ago he was 30...he can't have grown...

i was wondering if the result is something official or just in between the many views written by users...

pharrell seems def shorter than 175..maybe 173 yes
chris175 says on 20/Jan/08
hes obviously a 5-10 guy from the pic, and he is probably not standing straight, 5-9.5 at the least
bruce_willis says on 14/Jan/08
He looks a bit taller than 5'9, possibly 5'9.75
Andre says on 9/Jan/08
I think a reasonable explanation for this is that Pharrell isnt 5 ft 9, Diddy isnt 5 ft 10 and Lewis isnt 5 ft 8.
jd says on 3/Jan/08
I saw him 4 years ago at the HOB on Sunset. We had VIP upstairs after the show and he walked passed us with his then girlfriend Kelis and he is no taller than 5'5 she towered him. I'm 5'7 and i felt like I towered him, maybe he's grown since.
BOARDERS says on 28/Dec/07
I'd rather say 174 cm , max 175 ! But I dont think he could be 175 . Here is a video of Pharrell and britney in a concert , we all know britney is small she is 163 cm and in the video pharrell looks not much taller . Considering that she was wearing heals in this video and that the heels could be max 10 cm that means 163 + 10 + or - = 173 . Here is the video : Click Here
JUNOTES2 says on 10/Dec/07
I WONDER IF ROB IS REALLY GLENN OR GLENN IS REALLY ROB? I LOVE YOUR CREATIVE USE OF PHOTO SHOP.

[Editor Rob: I love your creative use of magic mushrooms.]
anon says on 23/Oct/07
pharrell has to be wearing lifts or something lately
i've met chad hugo in person and he's at best a weak 5'7
i can't think pharrel is more than 2 inches taller than him
al gore says on 15/Oct/07
can i request here Al Gore's height please?
Albert says on 2/Aug/07
I'm pretty positive that he's wearing a pair of Bapes. With that said, it's also comparable to Air Force 1's, which bumps up that extra inch.

[Editor Rob: he'd only be getting an extra inch if the other person was wearing shoes with less than a 1/4 of an inch...]
Brah says on 25/Jul/07

MD says on 8/Jul/07
Yes, but what about a picture of Pharrell and Lewis? I think Diddy is still an enigma, height-wise. Hamilton, though, we know is nothing over 5'8".
MD says on 7/Jul/07
Here he is with 5'7" to 5'8" Lewis Hamilton, and P. Diddy given 5'10.5", here.

Click Here

Not the best photos, as there is some slouching going on amongst all three of them, but it was really the only one from that event where they were standing at the same angle, and where neither of them was significantly closer of further from the camera.

[Editor Rob: This Shot they are right together. He does look to have 1-inch trainers, there was a shot you could see them, so probably very close in footwear.]
sofia says on 6/Jul/07
i thought he was short! that`s tight! he`s taller than me! im 5ft.7
MD says on 1/Jul/07
Have you not scene him in the plethora of videos he's done with 5'8"ish rap and R&B stars? He always appears around their height, or ever so slightly taller. In fact, he does more videos with people around his size than people of above average height like Snoop and Slim Thug.
Duhon says on 1/Jul/07
He looks short cause he always seems to be next to 6'4" snoop dogg and 6'6" slim thug in videos.
Anonymous says on 29/Jun/07
damn, this guy isn't that short, 5'9 minimum. How come he always looks so short? I've always seen him as 5'7ish
MD says on 29/Jun/07
Lmeister, that's what I'm saying. If he's 5'10", then all of the other 5'8" guys need to boosted to that height or more.
Daniel says on 29/Jun/07
Remember, rappers often wears thick shoes (except converse), ex. Reebok, and I own a pair of Reebok shoes, and they give my like 1.5-1.75 inches in height.
Maybe Pharrell are wearing shoes with thick soles?
Lmeister says on 29/Jun/07
Ok, maybe he his 5'10'', but then Rob has a lot of upgrading to do. Nelly, Kanye West and Ludacris etc...gotta go up one inch...
glenn says on 29/Jun/07
i dont know how in hell people see him my height or an inch taller.its pretty obvious he is 5-10 in the pic.and looked it in the flesh too.
Viper says on 28/Jun/07
I thought he was 5-8. Looks 5-9 in the pic.
Anonymous says on 27/Jun/07
Looks the same height as Glenn to me. So many people who see this guy in person always comment on how short he is. Maybe his scrawniness gives that impression?
Del Mar says on 27/Jun/07
I heard 5-8 once, but seems at least 5-9 here
Marcus says on 26/Jun/07
No more than 5'9''. I've seen a picture of him standing next to a Brazilian supermodel Ana Beatriz Barros (5'11'') and she was clearly towering him. She was on heels I guess, but still, this guy looked like a midget next to her.
Trey says on 26/Jun/07
Josh do you really know him? Because I think Glenn is right on this. Pharrel looks short but if you come up close he isn't that short. 5'10/11 something like that would be correct.
Cat Stevens says on 26/Jun/07
Looks 5'10.5
Yoooooo says on 25/Jun/07
Glenn, with all due respect if pharrell was minimum 5'10 p diddy would be much taller then listed on this site and so would be kanye west, daddy yankee, ludacris. if you also look at a lot of the pics with chad hugo [5'6"] he doesn't appear much taller.
Josh says on 25/Jun/07
I personally know the guy....trust me he is BARELY 5'9. This pic also confirms it since he barely has one inch over 5'8 Glenn. Peace
dmeyer says on 25/Jun/07
dose look aleast 5'9.25 to 5'9.5
Bad B says on 25/Jun/07
it's clear that he's no shorter than 5"10 / 5"10.5
Lmeister says on 25/Jun/07
There is something dodgy going on maybe the floor levels if Pharrell is 5'10'' then Kanye West is 5'9'', Ludacris is 5'9'' and Nelly 5'9.5''. Like Rob said that it is hard to argue with Glenn based on this pic, but standing next to other artist from 5'7''- 5'9'' range Pharrell looks 5'8.5''- 5'9''...
Rafael says on 25/Jun/07
Wow Pharrell is pretty tall then
glenn says on 25/Jun/07
i see at least 2 inches in my photo.yet everyone wants to do colin farrel on me where i also had proof he was 5-11.i passed on a photo with him the other night.had i known this would happen,i wouldve taken another.he doesnt seem to like me or my friend much.so i didnt want to ask again.5-10 minimum for pharrell.that pic with prince william is ridiculous.it obvious he is slouching and who knows how much he can straighten out.im not saying he looks tall whenever i see him.he looks short,until you get close to him and he does a dmx.
OutBenchThis says on 24/Jun/07
mate, if pharrell is 5'11 then prince william is 6'4-6'5", which isn't the case..(there's a pic with the two together at a polo meet and Prince williams has 6 inches on him easily with footwear visible) I say Pharrell is a 5'9"-5'9.5" guy

[Editor Rob: I can't argue with glenn he looks no less 5ft 9, 5ft 10 though? dmx mark 2???]

Really? I've never seen him listed anywhere over 5'9". This is very confusing that you saw him that tall, to say the least, as he looks around the same height as many of the 5'8" and 5'9" hip-hop artists he often works for and with. I've never seen him look over 5'9".

Crystal says on 24/Jun/07
What shoes were he wearing?
Yoooooo says on 24/Jun/07
What type of trainers or shoes was he wearing glenn, he normally wears those air force one style bapes and they tend to give at least 1.5" increase. i say this cz i wear a lot of bapes nd feel quite tall in those.
glenn says on 24/Jun/07
i saw him again a couple of days ago.at least 5-10.possibly 5-11.he isnt short.gives a short impression like dmx.
BigT says on 24/Jun/07
wow i always thought he was mor in the 5'7" range
16and5'7.25'' says on 24/Jun/07
woah! pharrell looks 5'9-5'9.5 to me in this pic....how tall did he look to you glenn?

Glenn: your verdict on Pharell? Is he in the 5'9" department? please reply. thanks man.
Mike says on 15/Jun/07
Yo as far as im concerned he looks 5 foot 9 lol im 5 foot 9 and im decent height so wtvr....dis kids prolly like 5 foot 10 at most who the knows
bigpinup says on 17/Feb/07
in the mtv awards pharrell and ludacris performed money maker and pharrell was taller
Jazzy says on 30/Jan/07
ya.. he seems shorter, but photograph evidence proves his height soo...
blaze says on 30/Jan/07
hes shorter ive met him and i got a picturs im 170 and hes 173 maybe
Mr. Stench says on 30/Dec/06
I saw him in a restaurant in Miami wearing his usual sneakers. He looked 174.5 to me since he was a just a wee bit taller than I am, and i'm 173.5.
buddes says on 4/Nov/06
wow in the EMA's he looked huge
marcy says on 29/Oct/06
actually Pharrell appears taller than Kanye in recent pics. I think he is also slighty taller than Ludacris as well. He has a small frame that makes him appear shorter. I have met him and agree on 5'8.5"
DJ says on 27/Aug/06
If you take a look at the new Ludacris video "Money Maker," there's a few shots of Luda and pharrell standing side by side, and pharrell is CLEARLY 2 or 3 inches shorter than ludacris, so I'd say he's 5'6 at the most.
MD says on 3/Aug/06
Editor Rob, you need to look at this one, again. Can someone find some screen clips to backup the claim of him being shorter than Kanye, as I haven't seen the video, yet. Jus to lay it out there, I think Kanye is 5'8" TOPS, not the 5'8.5" Rob gives him on this site.

[Editor Rob: I've only seen numero 1 once and they were moving about too much whilst attempting to dance...I wouldn't use that as proof of height]
stacks says on 2/Aug/06
Pusha t is barely 5 foot 8, in one of his songs he claims that he and malice are only 5 "9 but malice is shorter than he is!! I live in va they be in the malls out here all the time!! I'm 5"10 and I look down on them!! Pharrell is a lil bit shorter than pucha so he is about 5 foot 7 1/2
commander says on 30/Jul/06
If God has given you a well sighted healthy eyez, then you will find it easy to judge that pharrell is way too short than kanye.
Quag says on 17/Jul/06
How can Pharrell's height and Kanye west's height be the same did anyone even watch that "#1" video where pharrell clearly looked shorter than Kanye, mind you not by much but shorter nonetheless.
Mee Too says on 22/Jun/06
That guy is strange. He looks taller in videos now then when he did 5 years ago. his as tall as mariah in heels, as tall as Pusha T (who is about 6ft tall). Maby he has the magic shoes like Tom Cruize
Britainy says on 7/Jun/06
I doubt that this little man is above 5'7. Nearly everybody he stands next to looks taller than him. And that's just the girls. If we put him next to Jada Pinkett he'd probably still look short!
clad-in-black says on 30/Apr/06
But you guys cant seny the photos, iagree he cant be that tall, but the fact he looks like he's wearing slipper sort of footwear ,and mariah is wearing heels, AND THEY still stand head to head would suggest otherwise wouldnt it??
the photos are facts plain for all to see. Unlesss someone has evidenc to prove mariah is shorter than the 5'7-8 frame always given to her everywhere she goes.
And that is unlikey as whitney is around her height as well, and they stand almost identical heightwise when weraing 4 inch stilleto's.however, he looked only a tad taller than gwen stefani in the video hollaback girl
So basically, this particular case is bloody mindboggling!!
but either way, i wouldnt say his current stated height 5'8.5 is pat down correct
trueheight says on 6/Apr/06
yep thats the article I was refering to earlier. The interviewer must have been quite short to remark a 5'8er(below average) as tall
Cycklops says on 6/Apr/06
J.,

He also refers to himself as "Little Skateboard P"...
trueheight says on 6/Apr/06
hah, what you guys are really missing is the fact that mariah is not upright in ANY of those pics while Pharell is. Not standing upright can take as many as 4inches from your actual height
J. says on 5/Apr/06
He's described as a "TALL, thin, gawky guy" in this Newsweek article: Click Here
MD says on 1/Apr/06
Nate, the thing is, Mariah can be in heels of all different heights. Not only that, but again, almost every fan site out there has Pharrell at 5'8". That should be the starting point. He's lanky, but he really isn't that tall of a guy. He can look 5'9" in thick boots, though, but he's not over 5'8" barefoot.
~Nate~ says on 30/Mar/06
Ok for me Pharell has to be tall if he's the same height as Mariah in heels. I've met Mariah twice and have friends of all different heights that have met her many times. We have came to the conclusion that Mariah is anywhere from 5'8.5-5.9.5' Barefoot. Im a little bit above the 6ft mark, 6ft.5' and Mariah and I looked eye to eye when we met she was almost a hair taller then me. So I just think Pharell might be taller then 5'8.
MD says on 29/Mar/06
Editor Rod, please mark MariaCarla's last post as a sighting. Thanks. And, isn't it time to downgrade Pharrell? Again, most fan sites list him as 5'8" so it is highly unlikely that he is anymore than that. 5'8" should be the starting place from which to judge.
trueheight says on 16/Mar/06
I saw pic w/ him and Kanye and they were about the same. He looks tall though, I remember reading a mag describing him as 'tall and lanky'
~Nate~ says on 13/Mar/06
Here is another pic with 5'8/5'9 Mariah and shes wearing her usual standard four inchers she looks to have maybe an inch on him with bad posture. I would peg this guy in the 6ft range now! But maybe hes wearing lifts cause having met Mariah twice I know for a fact shes 5'8/5'9. I used to think he was 5'8 but now this is weird.
lucy says on 24/Nov/05
Yeah ive met pharrell through a friends dad whos a record producer he knows ppl. nd lets just says i was lookin down on him nd im 5.6 lol :P
word says on 2/Nov/05
I met him after one of his performances backstage at a show, im about 5'10 and he was significantly shorter than me, not to mention he always wears those bape sneakers which add about a good inch...
Cyclops says on 29/Sep/05
I've seen him in personal, too. He's around 5'7"-5'8". Plus, Chad and Shae are both around 5'6" and Pharrell is about an inch or two taller than both of them.
CoolJ says on 5/Jul/05
I think he's even shorter than that.
5'8 MAX
Anonymous says on 4/Jul/05
the kat is defantly around 5'6 hands down..met him in VA
Anonymous says on 21/May/05
somethings not right I must be taller than 5'8 cause the doctor told me Im 5'6 and when I met pharell he was about the same height as me.
MD says on 16/May/05
He's listed at 5'8" everywhere else, so I'd imagine it would be less than that, if anything. Not more.
JS says on 15/May/05
I'd say 5'7.5 - 5'8
J. says on 14/May/05
I saw him in person. 5'8" is extremely generous for him. I was approx. 5'10.25" when I encountered him and he was surely around 3 inches shorter than me. Also, I have some pictures of him backstage at a photo shoot with Gwen Stefani, both are wearing Converse sneakers, Pharell's maybe an inch taller. So 5'8.5" is a sweet little exaggration.
Brittney Jenkins says on 13/May/05
Yeah I have to admit, he was dwarfed when behind the scenes footage of he and Jay-Z were aired on HBO. I guess you can't expect a guy that small (size wise) to be rather gangly in nature.
Anonymous says on 20/Mar/05
have met him in person. defintely this height. he's bone thin in person too.
