Spent a lot of time standing around Shannon at the h.o.r.s.e. event today. Similar footwear this time, I revise my opinion to 5'8 3/4 and a max of 5'9. Shes does tend to stand up very straight which is why I thought she was a bit taller the other day, but today I was within 5 feet of her off and on for quite a bit, and I think we are really as close to exactly the same height as we can be.

Ok people, just ran into Shannon Elizabeth at the WSOP at the RIO in Las Vegas this morning. I am always at least 5'8.75 after I have been up awhile. I was wearing sneakers, and she was wearing very thin flat sole flip flops. I definitely had a half inch footwear advantage, and when we both stood by a mirror, we were as close to the same height as you can be. She has to a solid 5'9 5'9.25. Rob I pride myself on being a good observer, and this was on even ground inside the conevention center. She claims 5'9, and I am telling you she is 5'9. This one definitely needs an upgrade. My wife is 5'8.5 and Elizabeth is at leat 1/2 inch taller than my wife.

She looks much shorter. I'd be surprised if she was that close to 5'10" or 5'11".
And.. according to her, a tall man is at least at 6-foot. Anything below her 5'9" just "isn't tall." That makes me feel sad. :( tallgirl1313 says on 30/Apr/08
Come on.. Saying this girl looks 5'6" is so stupid... She is tall -- hasn't anyone watched her on Dancing with the Stars?.. It's painfully obvious that she is TALL..She is the tallest girl on there and looks tall standing next to her partner and other men on there... She has some of the longest legs I have seen in Hollywood -- yet a lot of people want to say she is only an inch or 2 above average.. Gimme a break.. Shes 5'9".. Shane says on 30/Apr/08
Solid 5'9, I actually thought she was more like 5'10 when I saw her on the beach barefoot. "Dancing With The Stars" again shows she is a tall girl. Alex says on 27/Jan/08
She does look 5'9/ PJ says on 24/May/07
Shannon is a legit 5'9. I stood next to her at Sundance, we're both bearing regular plain old sneakers (I'm 5'9) and my friend verified we're the same height. DeanT84 says on 13/Apr/07
Well, if she stated she was 5'9'' why did you put her height at 5'8.5 do you think she's lying? Glenn says on 17/Oct/06
I heard she was tall. Nina says on 1/Aug/06
I don't think it's that hard to believe she is 5'9. Why would she lie about being taller. Besides, you can't say you can see she's shorter than 5'9 from pictures og by seeing her on screen.

I work at six flags magic mountain in valencia,CA and the park closes its doors to the public to let many celebrities enjoy the park without the general public.Shannon elizabeth was 1 of the celebrities that I met and I used to think she looked tall in movies,but I can honestly say that she is no more than 5'7".I am 5"9 and I can tell by the pics that i took with her that I am At least 2 inches taller than her.

I met Shannon at Sundance a couple years ago, she is definitely 5'9, no shorter. Anonymous says on 31/Mar/06
normal slippers are about 1 inch high, not at the front, but at the heel (which is where it counts). front of the shoe is thinner.
still, even if we assume that Reid is 5'5.5", and that those slippers are only 1/2 an inch high at the heels (which is unbelievably thin), that makes Shannon 5'9.5". Since Reid looks no more than 1/2 an inch shorter there --> Reid is 5'9" in those shoes --> she is wearing at least 3.5 inch heels? Those shoes just don't look that big. tybor says on 29/Mar/06
I don't think those slippers add an inch. I also think (from personal encounters) that Tara Reid is at Least 5'5 maybe a little more. Kats says on 27/Oct/05
I've never thought she was 5'9. And there is no way she is that tall if Dhani is 6'1... and I doubt he is taller than 6'1 . I agree Shannan is 5'6-5'7.
I wouldn't put a "however" when talking about Conan commenting on her legs, though. Although he is tall, he could notice someone 5'6-5'7 with long legs. Anshelm says on 13/Oct/05
In that picture next to Dhani Jones, she looks maybe 168–170 cm/5'6"–5'7"... However, I remember Conan O'Brien saying to her: "My God, how long legs you have!" Considering Conan's size, you'd think you need to be quite tall to impress him in the height department. Too bad I wasn't paying any attention whatsoever to her height at the time :(
Maybe that photo shouldn't be used for estimates, since you can see only part of them. Yet, if someone's wearing lifts or heels there, I wouldn't bet on Dhani. Mr. Awesome says on 19/Sep/05
Yes, Rob. After the last picture you posted of her under Anna Nicole Smith's page, I would indeed say it is time to peg Elizabeth down. tybor says on 1/Jul/05
If you look at her in the 2nd Pie movie, you'll see that they often have her barefoot when next to Jason Biggs, and in full length shots she may have almost an inch over him. Not sure how tall he is, but she's probably a half inch taller. Mr. Awesome says on 29/Jun/05
I have a very tough time believing that she is 5'9''. Back before she really hit it big, she was listed at 5'8'' in many places and I found even THAT to be hard to beleive! (I've even seen her listed as tall as 5'10.5'' in some places, and I KNOW that is not accurate!!!) She just doesn't look that tall on screen, the way a woman who's 5 inches above average would. In Jay and Silent Bob Strike back, when compared to Ali Larter, Shannon does not seem do be anywhere near 2 inches taller than Ali. She doesn't even seem that tall compared to Kevin Smith (silent bob), who's quite a short guy. My beleif is that she's 5'7''-5'7.5''; no more. However, this is based on just movies alone. She's got me pretty stumped, Rob, since she's hard to pin down. Since no one has commented on her, I'd like to hear what you have to say, since you're the expert here and I generally respect your opinion.
[Editor Rob: Yes, this 5ft 9 claim doesn't hold water...even in that film with the guy who plays Monk she did not look 175cm...] |
