I seen them measuring this girl on tv i think it was for the tallest teenager they made her walk around for a hour after they measured her the first time then they measured again to make sure her height didn't change it didn't i think she was 14 and about 6ft7 without shoes.
That girl could either be sufferin from gigantism or Marfan syndrome, or she was givin HGH, which some are takin nowadays. I don't think it's healthy for a person at a young age to be growin that tall. Amy, Cameron is slouchin there, so Weaver could be 5-10ish, maybe a little under since she may have lost some height, now that she's gotten old.
Amy says on 6/Sep/09
looks a solid 5'11" next to a 6'2" James Cameron Click Here wowuguys says on 10/Aug/09
she could act in her barefeet for the role that requires her to be smaller or they can put other actors on box or now they can even make her smaller with computer Michael.B says on 9/Aug/09
She is 6ft because she was measured in the guinness book of world records and they are very strict when it comes to measuring people i seen them measuring this girl on tv i think it was for the tallest teenager they made her walk around for a hour after they measured her the first time then they measured again to make sure her height didn't change it didn't i think she was 14 and about 6ft7 without shoes. Gonzalo says on 2/Jul/09
I thought she could reach the 1`83 mark Doug says on 1/Apr/09
I always saw her listed at 6' which I always thought too high yet she looked it compared to Yaphet. I agree with some of the comments below I can see how a lot of guys would feel very intimidated by her even taller guys and women too, She is a very powerfully built woman and I bet she could kick the arses of a lot of guys. A female action hero, Michelle Yeoh would kill virtually any guy too. Dennis M. says on 17/Mar/09
I saw her in ghostbusters years ago and didn't realize she was so tall. Maybe the ghostbusters are all tall guys. I had the impression she was only average height in that movie, like 5-6 or 5-7. I don't think her height was an issue.Wasn't until Aliens (part 2) came out that they started describing her as tall. I seen 5'11 women and they look pretty tall but on the screen it isn't so noticable. I just saw Siqourney in galaxy quest and again she gave the illusion of being pretty averaged size. Maybe 5'11 isn't all that tall? It doesn't seem to be a big issue for the characters she plays. She played a few powerful larger than life characters; aliens, working girls, but she also has convincingly been in other movies that did not call for a tall person and pulled it off; heartbreakers,Galaxy Quest. So do the people of hollywood, are they able to mask someones height easily? runt says on 5/Mar/09
In "Baby Mama" with Tina Fey, she and Fey were both in heels and Weaver didn't look more than 6" taller. She looked 5-10.5 if tina Fey is 5-4.5 unless Fey had a higher heel. keegan says on 2/Mar/09

Did u guys see the 5'11" sIGOURNEY WEAVER in her 4" heels at the Golden Globe awards. She looked very intimidating to say the least, just dwarfed most of the guys around her. not only is she tall but very well built with broad shoulders thick says on 8/Jan/09

Big T: Lol, this website has suffered a feminist take-over, lol... ;-) If you dare to suggest that some women here are not as tall as they claim you may receive death threats... ;-) In the Sharapova page there are some females who want to beat the living crap out of me. miser says on 20/Nov/08

I agree strongly with miser. Lots of overlisted women here and the biggest male stars tend to be underlisted miser says on 11/Nov/08
Finally ran out of arguments huh C.? :-)
"You state your opinions as if they are facts, when they are simply that-- opinions."
Oh dear if every one us had one opinion and there were no actual truth out there than there would be no point at all in arguing over anything... I am not right?

I'm not going to even bother anymore. You state your opinions as if they are facts, when they are simply that-- opinions. You disagree with most of Rob's listings for women, especially tall women and that's fine. I don't, as I agree with both Sigourney's listed height as well as Nicole Kidman's. End of discussion. miser says on 10/Nov/08
"Yes, a woman at 180 cm may appear taller than a man who is also 180 cm."
Women appear taller than men who are the same height in 99% of the cases(unless there's really grooss confounding factors, ie: one is really fat, the other really skinny, etc.)
"But that being said, most celebs here period are marked lower than what they are "officially" listed at. Tall women included-- Gweneth Paltrow (usually marked at 5'10"+), Charlize Theron (5'11"), etc. Why? Because there's strong evidence suggesting that they are not that tall."
Gwyneth Paltrow at 5'10+ is kind of crazy isn't it? As for Charlize what evidence is that? If i had to cite 2 women on this site who actually look about 1.80m I would say Charlize and Geena. Still I'm not sure at all that geena is a full 6'.
"Again, I never said that women don't care about height. Just that very tall women, especially those hovering over the 6' mark or over, are typically not going to be adding inches to their height."
Yeah those hovering over the 6' mark or over will not add inches to their height, mainly because they are virtually non-existent. But those who do exist will sometimes attempt to(Sharapova is about 6' and claims 6'2"!!!).
"Sure, some are still probably a bit overestimated (many claim this with Brad Pitt and Natalie Portman, for example) but are they completely unfounded?"
Yes many are completely unfounded. If Pitt were downgraded to 5-10 there would be demands of 5-9(there already are some now LOL). This is because he is a sex symbol and people hate his guts.
"For Sigourney and Nicole, I still fail to see evidence suggesting that they are less than what it listed here."
As I recall "my life", Nicole did not look bigger than Michael Keaton, who is listed here at 5'9.5. This is exactly what I meant when I say that tallish women always have an extra credit: she is listed at an inch over him, 5'10.5.
"Glenn claims that Sigourney is 5'11" (she used to be listed at 6' or so), whereas Mr. R states that Nicole may possibly be 5'11"+. Both of them have been on this site for a very long time and have seen dozens of celebs and most of the time are quite accurate in their claims."
I actually kind of agree with glenn on stallone lol, but glenn's and rob's opinions are just too "gentleman-like" in my opinion. I think they have a tendency to see women bigger than they really are, again just about EVERY tallish women seems to have 2 inches added to their heights here. Look up the Princess Diana page:"Often stooped a bit to make Charles appear taller." lol c'mon folks...
Click Here
To be fair to rob, i think diana's official height was 5-10 but charles' was 5-11. Extra credit at work again.I agree with most most of rob's listings on men, though.
"And to me, Sigourney also appeared shorter than Nicole in the other pics, but of course I have no idea what she's was wearing heel-wise. If Sigourney was wearing a minor heel, then the listings of the two are still on par with what is listed here at celebheights."
Click Here C. says on 9/Nov/08
Yes, a woman at 180 cm may appear taller than a man who is also 180 cm. However, being a tall woman myself, seeing a 5'11" woman doesn't appear all that tall to me in reality. So no, to me a 5'11" woman doesn't look enormous. But to other people, yes, especially if they don't see a woman often at that height. And also if they can't judge heel height either.
But that being said, most celebs here period are marked lower than what they are "officially" listed at. Tall women included-- Gweneth Paltrow (usually marked at 5'10"+), Charlize Theron (5'11"), etc. Why? Because there's strong evidence suggesting that they are not that tall. In fact, this site has gotten so popular that the listings of these celebs' height has been marked down in most cases.
Again, I never said that women don't care about height. Just that very tall women, especially those hovering over the 6' mark or over, are typically not going to be adding inches to their height. Geena Davis is a prime example, as I used to see listings of 6'2" quite often. But in reality, she's 6' tall and often downgraded to get film roles (who wants a woman to be taller than her male co-star?). As you can see on this site, plenty of women claiming that they are taller in reality have also been cut down-- Eva Longoria, Jessica Alba, Halle Berry, Angelina Jolie...the list goes on. Same goes for Tom Cruise, Sly Stallone, Will Smith, and most popular men and women in Hollywood. Sure, some are still probably a bit overestimated (many claim this with Brad Pitt and Natalie Portman, for example) but are they completely unfounded? There has to be a reason why some celebs are so debated in terms of height, compared to those that are not (such as Nicole or Sigourney here). When you are notorious of wearing massive heels (Jeniffer Lopez) or massive shoes (Robert Downey Jr.) your "official stats" (not just height, weight as well) tend to be thrown out the window.
For Sigourney and Nicole, I still fail to see evidence suggesting that they are less than what it listed here. Glenn claims that Sigourney is 5'11" (she used to be listed at 6' or so), whereas Mr. R states that Nicole may possibly be 5'11"+. Both of them have been on this site for a very long time and have seen dozens of celebs and most of the time are quite accurate in their claims. Of course there is no photo evidence, yet there isn't a lot suggesting otherwise either. When I saw Nicole Kidman dwarfing Halle Berry (even with Halle's 1"-ish heel advantage), she has to at least be her listed height because Halle is no more than 160-163 in them. And to me, Sigourney also appeared shorter than Nicole in the other pics, but of course I have no idea what she's was wearing heel-wise. If Sigourney was wearing a minor heel, then the listings of the two are still on par with what is listed here at celebheights. miser says on 7/Nov/08
"What exactly do you base your opinion on?"
Pictures, films and personal experience.
"You're the one consistently stating that all of these women are overlisted, yet Brad Pitt is underlisted."
That is the plain truth. There is marked tendency, in this website, to give women much more credit than men as far as height is concerned, it is generally assumed that men care more about height than women do, that women "have no reason" to lie about their height, that they even try to diminish their height... There are many examples in this website that contradict this. Another thing that people don't seem to get notice of are the biological differences between male and female's builds: the longish silhouette that is proper of a woman's buid, not that of a man, usually leads people to believe that women are taller than men who in reality are about the same height. Consider this: when we see a 1.80m man walking down the street we don't take notice, it's a "normal" guy... but when we see a 1.80m woman it is always quite a sight, they look enormous. That is probably one of the reasons why there are so many overlisted "tallish" women in this website. I know that because I measure these regularly, and they usually turn out to be shorter than they first appeared to me... with men it is (usually) the opposite.
"So you find several pictures that you think says otherwise, but all of them have various angles and aren't the best for judging height period."
Nonsense. I always try to look for the best pictures I can find: full-body, non-"angled" pictures. I don't give a ratass what the result will be, it's not like anything is at stake, lol... and I may be wrong. Nicole, for example, may be slightly taller than I thought. I just would like to see the heights proved with good, unquestionable pictures. There are quite a few pages here that have no pictures posted at all! Look up the Brooke Shields page. People just take it for granted. And by the way if you have better pictures please do post them!
"Have YOU see any of these people?"
Personally? Very few.
"And you know, people are free to have their own opinion and do not have to agree with you."
Absolutely miss. C. says on 7/Nov/08
What exactly do you base your opinion on? You're the one consistently stating that all of these women are overlisted, yet Brad Pitt is underlisted.

"I've seen both. But movies are an entire thing altogether and are hardly accurate."
Movies are an entire thing althogether? What exactly is that supposed to mean?
"And in all of those pics, she looks taller than Ewan McGregor and she's not wearing heels."
Hehehe... yes I noticed that she looks "taller" (geez!) by like 2 milimeters in the first pic, but it could be that she is standing straighter, I tried to find another picture of them without heels to confirm her slight advantage but was unable to, she really likes those heels of her!
"As for Brad, no comment. I've already stated my opinion and those pics don't prove to me otherwise."
On what exactly do you base your opinion, have you met these people? If pics won't change your opinion, what will change it?! Nothing I guess! Back to Sigourney! C. says on 6/Nov/08
I've seen both. But movies are an entire thing altogether and are hardly accurate. And in all of those pics, she looks taller than Ewan McGregor and she's not wearing heels. And he's listed here at 5'9" 1/2". As for Brad, no comment. I've already stated my opinion and those pics don't prove to me otherwise. Besides, this is Sigourney's thread, not Brad or Nicole's. miser says on 6/Nov/08
Can't see Nicole at less than 5-10? Have you seen Moulin Rouge or the movie "my life" with Michael Keaton? Both these men are listed here at 177cm (5-9.5) and Nicole, without her heels (I know it's hard to imagine her without heels, but click on the pics below) is not taller or shorter (not noticeably, at least)than they are, Nicole is about 177cm too. She is at the very best 5-10, most likely a bit under that.

I honestly can't see Nicole under 5'10". On the other hand, Sigourney isn't that young anymore and it's very possible she has lost height, which I kind of doubt. To me, Nicole looks taller. But Sigourney looks bigger in terms of size. However, if she was wearing those flat, almost no heeled shoes with Nicole then yes, definitely taller. But Nicole typically wears anything from a 2" 1/2 - 3" standard heel so not very big. Anne in the third pic is again, wearing some chunky (and might I say ugly) heels which is giving her an advantage. miser says on 5/Nov/08
from what I have seen so far I would say Sigourney is slightly taller than Nicole, Sigourney is more robust, she might around 5-10 barefoot, Nicole a bit under that. C. says on 4/Nov/08
Anne is 5'7"-ish. She's also wearing some killer heels if you look at the group photo, although it's hard to see given the angle and darkness. And I can't distinguish Sigourney's heels at all. But just looking at the base, Anne has on some chunky high heels, as in platform wedge heels, compared to Nicole Kidman's standard 3" heels. It even looks chunkier and larger than Halle Berry's heels in the group photo.
What shocks me is that Nicole looks like she dwarfs Halle. She's listed here as 5'5 1/2" (down from the ridiculous 5'7") which may even be too much. More like 5'4". Nicole also looks to be at Sigourney's height in one of the other pictures, possibly even taller. But then again, I have no idea what Sigourney's wearing foot-wise. miser says on 3/Nov/08

"And yes, it's her own quote, but Rob also listed her at this height as well."
Maybe Rob does not know her or is undecided? I would think he takes actors at their word until further evidence.
"There are plenty of celebs that have quoted their height and are listed at something different."
Maybe it is because further evidence has emerged? (good pic)
"Why don't you go and find a pic proving her less than 5'11" as apparently you're the one not convinced."
I'm really not convinced either way, she might be 5-11 for all I know, but considering the general trend on this website I thought it unlikely that she is a full 5-11. I have done a quick google search, havn't found anything interesting. C. says on 3/Nov/08
Again, I don't think it happens any less on either side. It's just a simple fact that stars shorter than average (i.e. Eva Longoria, Natalie Portman, etc.) are going to get much more evidence that they are even shorter in real life as they are more likely to add inches, not subtract compared to their much taller counterparts.
And yes, it's her own quote, but Rob also listed her at this height as well. There are plenty of celebs that have quoted their height and are listed at something different. Why don't you go and find a pic proving her less than 5'11" as apparently you're the one not convinced. miser says on 31/Oct/08
"One user supposedly overlists a female celeb's height and suddenly all (i.e. tall women who supposedly need a tall "role model") of them do?"
It's not just one, as I said, that type of comment is typical. These pages are filled with examples.
"If so, the same can be said for male celebs as well, as there are plenty of users claiming they are much taller than they are in real life, especially those who portray a certain masculine image."
I think this happens also, but on a much smaller scale, most men who post here hate the guts of these actors, they are always trying to get inches off their listed height. There are also girls who hate actresses... these are perhaps the most hilarious.
"And yes, 5'11" is a claim of Sigourney's height, just like all height listings on this site. But it's not just some off the wall estimation."
It's not an estimation, her is listed from her own quote.
"This site not only has information regarding height estimations based on photos and perspective, heel and lift height, etc., but it also has actual photo evidence."
I agree, the photo evidence (actual pics in person) is the most entertaining part of this website. Most important for judging too.
"And to me, the 5'11" claim is accurate."
We don't have to take her at her word, you know, that is the point. Where are the pics? C. says on 31/Oct/08
And...? One user supposedly overlists a female celeb's height and suddenly all (i.e. tall women who supposedly need a tall "role model") of them do? Seriously. If so, the same can be said for male celebs as well, as there are plenty of users claiming they are much taller than they are in real life, especially those who portray a certain masculine image.
And yes, 5'11" is a claim of Sigourney's height, just like all height listings on this site. But it's not just some off the wall estimation. This site not only has information regarding height estimations based on photos and perspective, heel and lift height, etc., but it also has actual photo evidence. And not just professional shots with other celebs which can easily be manipulated, but actual pics in person which IMO is the best evidence; if not the only reliable evidence period. But again, you don't have to agree. However, I do. And to me, the 5'11" claim is accurate. miser says on 31/Oct/08
The point was that these girls seem to elect an actress as their role model of "tallness" and then proceed to try to over-list their height...
Do you have any pics of Sigourney standing? There aren't any in this page. Just a 5'11 claim. C. says on 30/Oct/08
And this is supposed to convince me because...? I see tall girls all the time who round down, it's pretty common. Whether you believe it or not. Again, you have your opinion. But I have mine and I believe this site because it is accurate, IMO. You don't have to agree.
Now can we get back to Sigourney please? miser says on 30/Oct/08
"Heels are easy to see and they give much less height than one believes, whereas lifts can be hidden."
Lol, come on, spare me yourself of this "lifts" talk, this is bull. I mean how many inches can you "hide" in shoes, SERIOUSLY? On the other hand, the heels these girls use these days are just massive, I don't know how they manage to keep their balance on these things. miser says on 30/Oct/08
Here's a typical sample of the type of comment that appears on these girls pages here(this one is from Mischa Barton's page, yet ANOTHER over-listed 5-8 girl - are ALL of them overlisted?!)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Astrid says on 22/Jun/07
Olerika, she's not 5'8". Come ON. Who are you kidding??
I'm a teenage girl and I'm 5'9.75" - seeing as she always slouches and wears flats I'd say she would try to avoid even the slightest exaggeration on her height at all costs.
Most tall women/girls dislike their tallness and will exaggerate DOWN. Take me, for example. Even though my height is CLOSER to 5'10", I still say I'm 5'9". Why? Because it makes me feel more comfortable with myself.
AND regardless as to what the bio she said when she was 18 (I'm guessing '04 - where's the link), she has already said last year that she's 5'9"!!!
Oh and funsized is right, I think she said she was 5'7" when she was 15.... this might have been true, she still could have done growing since then.
Bottom line: she's 5'9.5" at the minimum.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, no C., most girls are definitely not ashamed of being tall these days, lol. C. says on 30/Oct/08
Heels are easy to see and they give much less height than one believes, whereas lifts can be hidden. That, and most men in Hollywood period are overlisted. One picture doesn't necessarily prove anything, especially when pictures can be photoshopped to make the man look taller than he actually is. The most popular pages on this site are regarding Hollywood men whom are all lift-obsessed. Brad Pitt is a prime example. If Brad is taller than 5'11" (if he is 5'11" which I doubt), no way can Gweneth Paltrow who's no more than 5'9" be virtually identical in height to him. So please, spare me. miser says on 30/Oct/08
I'm fairly sure that this website UNDER-lists the heights of men who are considered good-looking, and OVER-lists the height "tallish" women. Look up the Nicole Kidman's page here, there are some like-opinions there. There's one reader who says that Nicole looks smaller than Brad Pitt whether she has heels on or not but still she is listed at only 1 centimeter shorter than him!!! Look up the Brad Pitt page also, there isn't an hour that goes by without some guy asking to take an inch off his height, lol! There are other actors that are under listed too, but not many actresses. C. says on 30/Oct/08
A 5'10" - 5'11" woman isn't all that rare to come by. Over 6', yes, but I don't doubt that some of these women are that tall. I see several women at 5'11" and above where I am, so I don't think it's a big stretch to see women in Hollywood at that height. However, you have your opinion and I have mine. I think most of Rob's listings on these celebs are pretty accurate, if not dead on. miser says on 30/Oct/08
Yes they are tall... they are tall WOMEN. 5-8, 5-9 is tall for women, but not for men, is that clear? And that is fine, I don't understand why a woman would like to be 5'11" or 6'. The thing is that whenever people see a rather "big" girl like Liv Tyler or Leelee Sobieski they go crazy and want to press men's standards of tallness on them. Then they call them 5'10", 5'11" or 6' which is absurd in almost all cases. Heels play a big part in this misconception also. Almost all of these "big"(5-8,5-9 range) girls are over-listed in this website. What I said about Sharapova is true, she is in reality about 181cm/182cm (5'11".5)which is huge for a girl but she claims she is 6-2, lol. There's a photo of her(on heels) and Uma on her page, and Uma does not look 5-11 to me, maybe 5-10. In the actual reality 5-11 women just don't come by often, they are very rare... Sigourney does look tall, but she might not be a full 5-11. C. says on 29/Oct/08
Maria Sharapova is an athlete, and nearly all of them are way over-listed, even more than Hollywood celebs. Primarily because it's all about "official" stats and whatnot, as height is seen as a huge advantage virtually all of the time. Look all around this site at the views on really tall women-- they are deemed as unattractive and unfeminine. Uma Thurman has a complex about her height, not to mention she's always bending down like most truly tall women do. (The pic that used to be up on this site clearly shows that she's at least 5'11" if not taller.)
And a 5'8"-9" woman is hardly ever going to claim she's 5'11"-6". I've never witness that happen in my life. I'm in the 5'9" range myself and never would I claim a "wannabe" 5'11". People easily mistake me for that height, but it's not all that hard to differentiate between 5'9" and 5'11". And Sigourney isn't shorter than what's she's listed here. She's very, very tall. No way does she look under 180 cm. If she's 5'9", she's definitely the tallest one I've ever seen on the screen. C. says on 28/Oct/08
How do you know all of them are over-listed? They are tall women. Leelee is about 5'10" as she's listed here, but for her 6'2" quote most people period believe a 5-6" heel really give that much height. As for Nicole Kidman, many "old timers" here on this site have seen her in person and claim that she's as tall as what she's listed. Some say she's even taller than what she's listed at here.
And did I say tall woman never lie? No. I said hardly, because they hardly do when it comes to upgrading their height. I'm a tall woman myself and honestly, I'm not going to be boosting several inches to my height simply because there is no reason to do so, unlike men. Almost always tall women will shave an inch or two off (I know many who do this, I used to do it myself), whereas with shorter women it's the opposite. Most people here attest to that. Also, their publicists also may boost their height-- it's not always them stating their height. Sigourney has stated 5'11" but so does Uma, but people here whom again, have seen them in person claim that they are taller. miser says on 28/Oct/08
Take a look at Maria Sharapova, she is listed at 6-2 (from her own quote)which is clear nonsense. She is stretching it biiiiiiiig time and still says "oh I wish I wasn't this tall!" LOL!!!
And yes "John" is in all likelyhood a woman, height ranging from 5-8 or 5-9(tops), a wannabee 5'11"/6'. miser says on 27/Oct/08
I don't have to believe anyone, I know for a fact that many "regular" women do lie. After going through this website I learned that TV women are no different. This website is filled with examples. Maria Sharapova, Uma Thurman, Leelee Sobieski, Nicole Kidman, Liv Tyler and others are over-listed here, and it's mostly because of their own quotes! They lie to AUGMENT their height, don't give me this nonsense that women are "ashamed" of being tall! Look at Leelee Sobieski who prides herself of being 6'2" in heels when she clearly is not. She looks 5-11 in heels. C. says on 27/Oct/08
A tall woman hardly ever lies about her height in terms of overestimating. Believe me, they don't. As for John, he doesn't seem like a troll. He just has some views that not everyone agrees with. Doesn't mean he's lying about his gender or his height. miser says on 25/Oct/08
"John" on 4/Oct/08 was probably a woman lol. anyone got any pics? not convinced, might she not be another over-listed woman? after going through this website i learned that women lie about their height too, not only about their weight. C. says on 11/Oct/08
Why does this stuff always surface on Sigourney's page?
@ John: That's your preference, but you have no right to say certain guys only date short women because they want to be in control. I find that comment quite offensive and I happen to be a tall woman.
Sometimes it baffles me when people either bash tall or short people (men and women) because they either have a complex or whatever. You're free to like who you like but don't bash or belittle a person based on their height. That, and there's plenty who like short women, tall women, and just women in general. Height may or may not be a factor at all. Hugh says on 5/Oct/08
John does have a point. Being tall myself I can say that you can feel quite awkward beside a woman who is a foot shorter than you. Alex says on 4/Oct/08
John, you go for a woman just because her legs or her figure? C'mon how superficial are you?, don't you see you' re missing the most important thing to looking at in a woman? Her BRAIN. I'm a man, a young man but still i'm smarter than you because to me it doesn't matter if the woman i wanna date is tall or short, what matters is what she have running in the brain, her way of thinking! John says on 4/Oct/08
As a 6'4 tall man, I refuse to date short women. I'm sorry.. but short women just aren't attractive. At least not as attractive as tall women. I LOVE women in the 5'8 to 6 foot range. They have the greatest leges, and best figures. And no, to all the short girls who think all the tall guys want you because you think you're "cute" you've got it all backwards. The guys that like you have insecurity issues and want to control you because you look like a midget. Sorry for being mean but it's the truth. Tom says on 16/Sep/08
weaver is going to appear with my aspie director at my asperger's syndrome conference on the 22nd. I can gladly give you a closeup estimate of what I think she is or I can simply ask her in person. above, she claims she is 5'11 so I will check with her on that to make sure. RisingForce says on 10/Sep/08
I've heard 5'10 1/2" a lot for her. I'm not sure where that figure comes from but she does look a solid 5'11". Tom says on 8/Aug/08
She claims she is 5'11 and 1/2 so that is nearly 6ft tall. Yes, she is a nice person and she is a fantastic actress. She also is familiar with Asperger's Syndrome and attends conferences for it. She met the leader of my Aspie Group,Michael J.Carley. She really towered over him. Frank2 says on 5/Aug/08
I've seen her in flats and she's definitely a solid 5'11". Also, very nice. Tom says on 4/Aug/08
Sigourney, you are one of the greatest actresses alive. Keep up the good work. anonymous says on 29/Jul/08
Christ...ur not sigourney weaver. If on the off chance u r, why are you on a website commenting on your own height. Pathetic. Sigourney says on 28/Jul/08
Being tall and an actress might be glamourous, but let me tell you, I am not everyon's cup of tea. Many men don't like my height and have passed me over for women of average height or petite women. They have the attitude that richard has, they think that smaller women are more appealing. By the same token,some people have commented on how they like my height. I take it in stride. I have been very fortunate to have a good career and many fans. Not many movies used my height as an advantage. When I play tough characters some people say I am imposing because of my height. Christie, I am sure many men adore tall women like yourself, but not all of them. Variety is the spice of life. To each his own! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! anonymous says on 28/Jul/08
wow, i've just gotta say this back and forth between richard christie is just too entertaining. But seriously, let the girl have her opinions. However, Christie while I am certainly not suggesting--as some have--that you belong in an institution, i seriously think you need to get off your high horse (no pun intended). Realistically, if you looked even remotely like christie brinkely you wouldnt be spending your days posting on this website, instead you would be, oh i dont know, a model! So lets be real, obviously your not as attractive as you claim--though in no way am i saying your ugly. As well, I dont think its fair of you to state as fact that smaller girls are automatically disadvantaged and even the beautiful ones cannot be as desired as beautiful tall girls. Honestly, I dont think that makes you a bad person, but you see how thats kind of wrong. As an unbiased person in this case, I think you may just be saying that cause your biased for taller girls. Now if you've taken the time--anyone--to read this, seriously go find something better to do, already too much of your time has been dedicated to reading this site.
PS because ur obviously going to attack me on some grounds and immediately assume I'm short, I'm a guy and I'm a 6-5 guy Anonymous says on 21/Jul/08
Sigourney is really tall and hot - especially when u put her age into factor - bty she has a tall daughter too who is going to uni- angelica.b says on 13/Jul/08
oopps sorry i forgot to write
in the guniess book of world records 2002 (haha long time ago)
it says she's 6"0
and i think thats closer to accurate
if not she's at least 182 richard says on 3/Jul/08
well yvonnne if i happen to favor small women over tall ones so be it. and if you don't like it that is tough for you. don't need counselling for deeply expressing my tastes. richard says on 1/Jul/08
well yvonne i am a man who is fascinated by petite small women. don't need counseling for that honey. if you have a problem with my taste and fascination with small women you can go fxck yourself because frankly i really don't care what you think about me or my tastes. lillee says on 5/Jun/08
whenever I see her pictured with tall men she is always taller. She looked at least the same height as Matthew Fox who is 6'2" at least 6'3" in shoes. She must be at least 6' maybe taller as I doubt she wears 6 inch heels Yvonne says on 4/Jun/08
I only want to add one comment - Richard sounds completely obsessed with being small. I think he should seek counselling, instead of transposing his insecurities onto a site such as this. Richard says on 1/Jun/08
Do you really believe Weaver is as tall as 6'1? Hell no! C. says on 1/Jun/08
@ Sophie: Exactly. Thank you.
This short/tall stuff needs to stop. No one cares. Besides, this is Sigourney's page to discuss her height. After all, that's what this site is for. The general height thread is a free-for-all. The trolling is getting ridiculous. As you can see, there has hardly been anything relating to Sigourney at all. Just bickering back and forth. Richard says on 30/May/08
By the way I agree with Candice, petite height for a woman makes a woman more of a woman and more feminine. And if she is pretty too that is a plus! Let's give it up for Candice and all those others who stick up for the beauty and advantages of petite women. I do find petite women much more delicate, feminine and prettier. And most men do. Richard says on 30/May/08
True,but to me I like the petites. That is just my taste. As for Christie she is wrong on the way she is going about expressing herself about her height and tall women. She can do it in a much nicer way than talking as if tall women are superior to petite women because that is illogical and certainly not true at all. She has no right making herself seem superior to anyone else just because of her tall height. Its ridiculous and this is the point I am debating here with her. She can just say she enjoys the fact that she was created tall. She doesnt have to go putting others down about it because that just isnt fair. and it isnt right for her to say that petite women are jealous of tall women because that is irrational and absurd. There are plenty of petite women who I know who enjoy their petiteness and are very content with their height and bodies. Just want Christie to wake up and realize this. Richard says on 29/May/08
Candice, you couldn't have expressed the truth any better to a snot like Christie and I am with you all the way on that. As for Supermanfan, look here, that is just you and your preference. Good for you if your wife is tall. I really don't care though it is not my preference. I prefer petite beauties. And nothing that you or a snot like Christie is going to change my taste and view towards women. Supermanfan380 says on 29/May/08
Richard, petite or tall makes no difference at all, in terms of the quality of a person. Maybe to the NBA, but not in the quality of a woman. My wife is 5'10.5", and she is beautiful. I like taller women, always have, but it is just a matter of taste, nothing more or less. Maybe just what -Christie- says about the "statuesque figure". The limb length and long waist has always been attractive to me. The fact that she is taller than I am has NEVER been an issue for us. We have had arguments about MANY things, as any healthy couple does, but her being tall has never been a problem in any way. Shallow minded people first notice that she is taller than me, and they sometimes ask if it has ever caused us problems, but in reality we are both happy to tell them, it is the only thing that has never been an issue. She was always sensitive about her height, because a lot of men told her that it made her “less female”, and it took a while for her to come out of her shell and appreciate her height as a gift. Today she sees that it is just one more quality that makes her beautiful. I don’t need her to be small for me to feel big or accomplished. Maybe if I had nothing else going on in my life, and that was all I had to make me feel important was to “just be taller than someone else”.
BTW, back on subject, I think Weaver may have padded her height downward for professional reasons, as an insecure male actor may not want to be seen shorter than a female co-star. I would put her closer to 6’-6’1”. Candice says on 28/May/08
Ya know what, Christie, do yourself a big favor and get your stuck up self off this forum. Nobody likes a bragger like you who thinks you are better than everyone else just because you are of tall height. Please! Just for your information I am a petite woman who is pretty and I don't care if 6ft tall supermodels invaded the rest of this earth, I love being petite because it is very feminine and pleasing to men and has great advantages and I wouldn't change my petiteness if i could for anything. You are really just a stuck up snotty B*tch who has very low self -esteem and feels that the only way to make herself feel big and on top of everyone else is to degrade them and their qualities and try to make them inferior to you. I have got news for you, honey,you are a very obnoxious person for having the nature to do what you are doing and you aren't fooling anyone else here except yourself because not everyone wishes to be tall like you and there are plenty of women on this earth who feel the same way just like me to be blessed that they are of petite feminie height and pleasing to the male eye for our petite femininety and beauty so why don't you just grow up and get a life and some logic sense and realize that nobody likes a bragger and not the whole world is going to favor you as better just because you are tall. Richard says on 28/May/08
HA! Christie, who are you kidding? All I can say to you is that you really need to get your head examined! You really have some mental disorder by the way you think and write and I do feel sorry for you because there is no way you can feel good about yourself if you try to make yourself superior to other women just because you are taller than most women. If you had healthy self- esteem you would not have to be bragging on this forum about how great being tall is IN YOUR OPINION. And thinking that I am a woman and that petites are jealous of model tall women, girl you really belong in a mental asylum for such crazy, idiotic,stupidity that you post on these sites. To be honest I won't say any more to you because you obviously are just too stubborn to get through to and your are just not worth the time and energy to fight with and argue with whether it is a man or woman who is trying to get through to your demented brain. Christie says on 24/May/08
Richard, you are not a man! No guy would ever write so many times a day about this petite/tall women issue. You are a petite woman hating the fact that you can never stand up to a gorgeous model like woman. Seeing the model beauties in various fashion magazines, all of them being above 5'9'', must make you green with envy. Nevertheless, if you really are a guy (no way!) then I feel very sorry for your beautiful petite woman.....:-) No normal guy would ever argue with a woman whether tall or small is better. Only a very, very insecure idiot!!! It would really be enough to write just once what you prefer. Look how many notes you have left on this chat, instead. You feel sorry for me but there is really no reason. I feel very good about myself. I only wrote that I find taller people (men and women) more beautiful because of their statuesque figure and aristocratic charm. You, on the other hand, find small ladies more attractive. Ok, it is your taste and you should be happy with it and stick to it! Just like I will always stick to believing that tall is better and more charming! Sophie says on 22/May/08
What is with all these vain women saying that they have beautiful faces/long legs?! Get a grip we are talking about Sigourney Weaver and if you want to promote yourself as either a petite or an amazon go on a chat/dating site.
P.S. am 5ft 11 but beautiful comes in different shapes and sizes-follow C's advice he/she has brains and all these women bragging about how much better it is to be tall/small should tell someone who cares...
I'm not including all the girls here just ones like CHRISTY (Christie Brinkley/Cheryl Tiegs please post that to someone who ives a damn!)
But can everyone else quit the whole petite/tall is better because both are gorgeous and we should all be able to see that!
OK!?!
Come on, I'm 14 and this kind of squabbling belongs in the schoolground! Richard says on 9/May/08
C., everything you said I commend you for however I honestly must say that in regards to Christie, not only is she biased but insecure and jealous. If she was content about herself she wouldn't have to go bragging about herself and degrading really beautiful petite women on a public forum. I will let her be, however, I do feel very sorry for her because jealousy is an ugly monster and can make a person very mean and bitter,as Christie is presenting herself, along with emotional and physical insecurities. C. says on 8/May/08
Most women in Hollywood are stick thin regardless of their height. Many of them have little curves and could hardly be called having an hourglass figure (i.e. Jessica Alba)-- short, average or tall. So I have no idea where you're seeing that. Women in the real world, maybe. But in Hollywood? Hardly. All of those women you see, from Eva Longoria to Gweneth Paltrow are extremely thin and most say they appear anorexic in person.
And many men love these women, as some do like women whom are very thin, gauntly even. There are also those that like women a bit athletic, or curvier or whatever. There really is no standard, honestly. (Also, who's not to say they aren't real women either? Some of them may be naturally thin, and that's not their fault. Others whom have eating disorders need help.) The hourglass was popular in Marilyn Monroe's time, but the same can hardly apply in the 80s, 90s, and into the present day. But yes, men do like petite women, but they like all women honestly. It all depends on the country and culture.
And sure, models are tall and thin, but many of these actresses are just as thin even with or without the height. The media perpetuates thinness in general, not so much height-- unless you're a male. As for prettier faces, that also has a standard, particularly a western one, held by the media. Again, in other countries the same may not apply at all.
And Christie has her biases, but so does everyone else. It's not worth arguing over. Let her be-- you're not going to change her mind or anything, and her view on yours. But of course the whole "tallness is better" attitude will rub people the wrong way. Hell, it does for me and I'm tall. I have plenty of family members whom are of average or short height and I would be angry if someone said they aren't as pretty because of their height, because frankly, that has nothing to do with anything. Your perceived beauty is a luck of the draw. There are less attractive tall women due to sheer numbers, as most women are not tall. Most people period fall in between average height, therefore most of the attractive people are of average height. It's statistics 101. Candice says on 7/May/08
You know what is really vexing? Christie and her jealousy of woman with hour glass figures and gorgeous faces. Over centuries men have said that they prefer the petite height, hourglass shape and a pretty face. This isn't to say that some men don't prefer other shapes, but a majority of men like hourglass, petite beauties. And you know what,Christie? If you aren'tone of these beauties, tough! I'm tired of the tall, stick- thin media calling short hourglass women and size zero women ugly just so they can boost the egos of insecure taller women who are emotional eaters. These ad campaigns (and you know which ones I'm talking about) who show "real women" are the works of denial. There are women who are better looking than you Christie, who have more desirable and dainty builds and prettier faces! You just have to accept that and stop trying to boast about yourself on this site to make yourself think you are above everyone else because you aren't. Once you come to grips with that you are living back in the real world. Richard says on 7/May/08
C.,I am sure this madness will stop once Christie realizes she has low self esteem and is jealous of beautiful petite feminine looking women who have prettier faces and figures than tall women and learns to get over her overrated self. Candice, you are absolutely right! Christie is just jealous of naturally beautiful petite women because 1.)they are more feminine looking in shape and size, 2.)their petiteness makes their beauty dainty,feminine and prettier, 3.)petites are favored more by men over tall women because petites bring out a man's masculine qualities, 4.)Men find it much easier to have a relationship with petites in many aspects,esp.physical aspects. 5.)Christie just wishes she was one of the beautiful,dainty women and because she isn't she has nothing better to do than to make degrading comments about them to make herself feel superior out of downright jealousy. How sad for her. Hope she grows up and gets a life. Richard says on 7/May/08
When snobby Christie learns to get over that inflated opinion of herself then maybe all this crap will stop. She has to stop trying to feel she is superior to shorter women just because she is tall. C. is correct!Beautiful women are beautiful regardless of their height and once Christie lets that sink into her thick snobby skull then maybe there will be peace once and for all on this forum! C. says on 7/May/08
Will this madness ever stop? Pretty people are pretty people, regardless of their height. Most people do not care, except for perhaps most on this site. Short or tall women are not superior in terms of looks-- nor is one of them prettier or more attractive in general, it all depends on your taste. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, period. Candice says on 6/May/08
Christie is just madly jealous of naturally beautiful petite women with healthy, curvacious hour glass figures and beautiful faces. Christie, please do yourself a huge favor for yourself and the rest of the world and get over yourself. The world isn't going to stop producing really beautiful petite women just because you feel insecure about your tall height and looks. Wishing to try to make yourself superior to short women only goes to show how insecure you are about yourself and the fact that you can't handle that a petite woman may in fact be more beautiful than tall stuck up scum like you. Candice says on 6/May/08
I don't know why most people think that being tall is so wonderful. Don't get me wrong, I think tall women and models are beautiful. But I love how dainty and petite short women look. In fact they are prettier. I'm 5'2" and I would never want to be taller.
__________________ Richard says on 6/May/08
Oh and just to let you know Christie to prove your theory wrong about tall women there are lots of petite woman with the most gorgeous faces who outshine the tall women and have men taking notice of them over the taller ones!!! So sorry if you cannot accept that! You really have jealous, insecure problems,girl! So please do me a favor and get over yourself! Richard says on 6/May/08
Christie, that is just your opinion. It's not a fact. You really need to get over yourself! And stop fooling yourself. It makes no difference what height you are, if a woman has a beautiful face then she is beautiful no matter how tall she is and just for your information you are nuts in the head if you think I am a woman! I am a 37 year old man with success as pilot and happily engaged to a petite woman whom I consider the most beautiful woman in the world. You really need to get over yourself because not everyone is going to favor tall good looking woman over petite ones. The whole world doesn't think the way you do and once you realize that the better off you will be. Christie says on 3/May/08
Dear Richard, everyone has his/her own taste. I find taller people more atractive than smaller ones. However, I do not deny that short people cannot be good looking. Of course, there are a lot of petite women with beautiful faces but being short does not give them that extra "something" as it does for tall women. In Italy there is a nice saying about tall women. Their height adds an extra spice to their beauty. Meaning: a petite woman with a beautiful face will never be as striking as a tall woman with a beautiful face. By the way, I believe you are a petite woman, dear Richard......:-) Richard says on 29/Apr/08
No kidding! Bill Murray was claimed as 6 ft. 2 in.? No kidding! Do you think he may in fact be? Something tells me he can't be that tall. Do check out Gorillas in the Mist and let me know what you think of Sig's height in that flick. Because she looks like she is about 5'11 standing next to a solid 6'1 Bryan Brown. I may take your word on it that she could be a real close 6 footer if you say she is 5'11 1/2"! C. says on 28/Apr/08
I've seen "Ghostbusters" and yeah, she does only look a bit smaller than Bill Murray (who some claim is 6'2" rather than 6'1" on this site) so I'm thinking 6', maybe 5'11 1/2" at the smallest. ed says on 15/Mar/08
Im only about 5-10 but have a beautiful face too ;) personally i prefer women in the 5-6 to 5-8 range but no more... lace says on 7/Mar/08
I'm 5'8 and LOVE IT! being a tall female has it's advantges also. weather you are petite or tall really doesn't matter. Personally being tall has 'rocked' sofar. those who are tall, use it. those who are petite, use it. jennie says on 26/Feb/08
I love being petite. I think being petite has many great advantages. And I am so proud to be a petite young woman. Petites rock just as much. Sam says on 23/Feb/08
I am 5'10 and i wish i was taller actually! Height isnt just good for modeling its good for sports and other things too. Besides, you can see more when ur taller... Tall people rock. JW says on 18/Feb/08
I've seen babes in all heights - short and tall. Obviously tall women stand out more. But that's not to say there are'nt many hot "shorter" ladies. By the way, does'nt anyone here care about the personality and heart of a person? ...more important. I'd take an average looking women with a good personality over a total hotty with a bad personality anyday! bruce_willis says on 6/Feb/08
Jenna most of the men like short or average women. NONE of my friends who i have discussed girls with (about 20 friends) is not interested in girls, taller than 5'8-5'9, neither am I. And i should even mention that none of my 20 friends mentioned are under 5'8 (I live in Sweden, all guys are pretty tall). Leung says on 6/Feb/08
Jewel, yes all guys are different, each to their own is exactly right. Personally I like taller hotties. Some of my friends prefer petite women because they got the old school mentality that the guy needs to be taller. Here in Sydney there are guys that have asian fetish, so everyone is different has their own preferences to who they are attracted to. JEWEL says on 5/Feb/08
Ofcourse everybody should be prejudiced to what they are.
If your short, then short is the best,
If your tall, then tall should also be the best.
In my experience, different men like different girls. I have met tall men who dont like short women because physical and eye to eye level contact is hard, and tall ones who dont like tall women cause they are "imposing". OR
Short men who looooovvee tall women, with their long legs and short ones
who feel intimidated.
Honestly, to each his own. glenn says on 4/Feb/08
i also think thats to display the outfits better on their bodyframe and better visuals on the runway.not so much that they are prettier. glenn says on 4/Feb/08
i love women of all shapes and sizes. Jenna says on 3/Feb/08
HOw do you know if most men like short women??
And I am 5'10 1/2...
and i wasn't saying that all women want to be models and just because your tall don't mean that your an amazon..
I think you should get over yourself....
not just because i'm tall but i think tall women are much more attractive than short women why do you think they are models??????????? JEWEL says on 3/Feb/08
I model photographic and catwalk, and yes, you definitely have to be tall to model that type, above 5.9 is the requirement for those, 6ft is ideal. i dont do victoria secret though, and its for personal reasons. my body is for my man, and myself, so i do photographic, catwalk, sports and everynow and then catalogue. no glamour for me thanx.
and thanx for your comments by the way. leonari says on 31/Jan/08
Jenna: Jenna , jenna...Maybe some woemn don't want to be models?? No?? You are right all of them are dreaming of the most superficial of all jobs... Your post is meaningless. Plus: most guys love petite women. Guys are not that much into amazon chicks...
How tall are you btw? Jenna says on 31/Jan/08
At least tall women have a chance to be models you never see little short women walking down the cat walk, I'd rather be tall and fat then a little short ass with a big fat ass looking like an m&m!!!!!!
Tall women are beautiful Tall and skinny is much better looking than short and skinny thats very original and boring.. Mangina says on 28/Jan/08
Tall fat females look like nfl linebackers with long hair or sumo wrestlers.
To all tall supermodels, wait tell you get old, fat, and ugly.Maybe you can get a job as bodyguard to scare off short people.No guys would want to date a gigantic girl. I seen guys stand at 6'6 and weigh 350lbs. Imagine a girl standing at 6'2 and weigh 300lbs. What an eyesore. Tyra Banks looks like a horse. Jennie says on 29/Dec/07
I am petite with a beautiful face and described by many as beautiful in a pixie like way. I am very proud and lucky about that. Whereas that is wonderful for you, Jewel,if you were born good-looking in a model type way. Good for you and best of luck with that. What do you model for, if I may ask. Hmmnnnn let me take a wild guess....errrrr.... Victoria's Secret? You need to be really tall to model off many of the fashion designs for that company. Do you model in that type of field? Good luck with it. Jennie says on 28/Dec/07
Well I am petite and have a beautiful face so there are many wonderful advantages to that as well. You don't have to be tall to be beautiful! I love snuggling against men's chests when they hug me and they keep me cozy and warm with there arms around me since I am short 5'2! I do agree with Kathy, petites do rock and have many cute advatanges for the men. They feel big,strong and masculine around us petite women! And if you are born pretty and petite like me then that is really considered totally feminine! As for Jewel good luck with your modeling career. Of course good things come in small and big packages as you say! Best of luck to you! JEWEL says on 21/Dec/07
If your really tall, and have a beautiful face - you couldnt ask for more from God personally.
I am one of the few lucky people who were brought up to believe their height was an asset.
I am a model, and being very slim, in very high heels, pulls off designer lines a petitte 5.2 will never even dream of carrying off. Catwalk models have to be NO LESS than 5.7 inches (even then thats short by supermodel standards - 5.9 minimum carries off good lines)
one good thing though, men do like short women and i think it looks and works better anyways, however of the men left there, there are still those (and quite many) who like the model types.
so everybody's not left out yeah! Jennie says on 30/Nov/07
Well, I am petite 5'2 and I enjoy being small and having men tell me how cute that is to them and I enjoy watching most women towering over me. It certainly doesn't scare me but it makes me feel wonderfully petite and feminine to the world. By the way, Sigourney Weaver is a fantastic actress and, yes, she is 5'11" tall. It seems she claims that in what is posted above. Rach says on 28/Nov/07
I said short men! you rude little person! Your obviously just a walking head job!! that's all your good for, maybe you should get over yourself before judging other women.oh and by the way maybe you have a complex you must be scared of tall women knowing that they tower over you and all !! kathy says on 26/Nov/07
Yeah I'd figure as much that the same girl who was bragging about her intimidating tall height would fake that she is a man crazy about long legged women. Please don't even go there because I don't buy that joke. Petites rock and many guys prefer small girls over big ones. sorry but that's true. by the way sigourney is an inch taller than you. by the way what good are the long legs compared to a beautiful face. Rach says on 23/Nov/07
I am 5'10 myself and love being this tall i like being able to intimidate short men with my height, i have never met sigourney weaver but i'm sure i'd be pretty close in height to her !!! Anonymous says on 16/Nov/07
I find taller girls more attractive personally, maybe its the long legs that do it for me. :s kathy says on 10/Nov/07
Thank you, Rusty James! Petite do ROCK! Rusty James says on 10/Nov/07
Wait a sec lol, "anonymous" how did u go from 5'10 to '6'2? did u grow 4 ins?.
But yeah smaller girls rock kathy lol! kathy says on 4/Nov/07
I like being petite 5'3 by the way. It means more feminine and appealing to men. Sigourney Weaver by the way I believe is 5'11. Really tall. I find being that tall of a woman intimidating to a man. Doesn't him feel as masculine,protective and strong with a big woman as he would with a petite one. Anonymous says on 11/Oct/07
i think i'm about the same height as her. i do exactly what mattiew mentioned and i downplay my height. i slouch a lot and wear very flat shoes bringing my heiht down to 5'10ish then when i'mm fully upright i'm 6'. i tend not to wear shoes with any sort of heel, but if i wear trainers or well made shoes with low heels, my posture is corrected bringing me to around 6'2".
i like being this tall as a girl, it means i can eat more chocolate and dont look as fat as shorter people, and i can show off very long legs! glenn says on 6/Oct/07
bumped into her 5 months ago.still seemed close to 5-11.wouldnt pose.i have an old photo ill post one day. Marcelo C. says on 5/Oct/07
No doubt, she´s roughly 5´10" or a bit more. Mattiew_^ says on 29/Sep/07
She appears to be 6'0 at least ...
No way she is 5'11 , she must downgrade her height like many tall women / actresses do ...
One of my best friends is 184cm and she claims to be 180 ... Mr Mayfair says on 10/Jan/07
I saw her fairly regulary around the time of shooting the Alien film (with Charles Dance) at my Cafe, I'd say she was spot on 5.10 then - barefoot. Anonymous2 says on 22/Dec/06
I sat next to her in a fancy NYC beauty salon about 8 years ago. I'm 5'10" and she easily had an inch on me then. anonymous2 says on 3/Sep/06
I woudn't be surprised if she is the same height she was 15,20 years ago. She's got fantastic posture. not everyone has lost height by her age. Random Person says on 25/Aug/06
I am currently watching the television show "Richard and Judy" and Sigourney said that she is 5'11 barefoot. dmeyer says on 10/Aug/06
give her 182 or 183 at peak Anthony says on 21/May/06
In her prime, I have no problem saying that she was 6'. In "Alien" she wasn't too far off from 6'3 Yaphet Koto, and she towered over anyone else. In some shots she looked as tall as 6'2 because she was wearing boots a lot of the time. Even now, she still looks to be in the 6' range, I'd say today she is a solid 5'11 1/4 today. She towered over Jennifer Love Hewitt in "Heartbreakers". trueheight says on 20/May/06
yea in the Locker Room scene in Aliens she looked the tallest out of all the men Keddy says on 18/May/06
According to the book of guiness in 2000 says that Sigourney is 6'0 183 cm and theres two actor shares her same height and that is GEENA DAVIS & BRIGITTE NIELSEN. D.K says on 17/Feb/06

She is exactly 182 cm and she was measured in the Guinness World records Book with Brigitte Nielsen!! talker says on 27/Aug/05
I've walked past Sigourney about 20 years ago in NY and she was definitely 6'then. |
