I was an extra in Miss Congeniality and at a SAG party before the film release, I met Julia Roberts. She is 5'6". I am 5'8".
I have met several celebs and it wouldn't even be worth me trying to tell you how much shorter most of them are because you wouldn't believe me. Julia was a surprising one, though. My friend, who is 5'10" for real, works for William Morris as a talent manager and is not allowed to be in pictures with most of her clients because it would ruin the illusion.

In Pretty Woman,she says that her legs are 44 inches. (112 cm) Could that be true??Because if it is, she must be at least 5'9, I think...

In "Mystic Pizza," there are scenes where it seems AnnaBeth Gish is slightly taller than Julia. I wouldn't quite suggest that AnnaBeth is 5'8" that she's been listed, but is more likely closer to 5'7". There is no way Julia is as tall as her claimed 5'9". So, with AnnaBeth at a more reasonable 5'7", that puts Julia around 5'6".

I looked at another site with comments from people who claim to have met her and they say she is no more than 5'6.

I actually seen other photos of the same event (magazine photos unfortunely). And no Julia did no forget her heels. Jennifer's shoes might had been about an inch bigger than Julia's shoes, but I don't think they were any bigger than an inch. Plus they "might had been" bigger.

Is there another picture of the same event with Julia and Jen which shows their footwear? Cos Jen could easily be wearing some really high heels, and she is only like 3 inches shorter than Julia right?

I agree with Mr X in that women like to be taller than their counterparts in the movies but I think this apply for short actresses. In Julia-Cameron's case both are tall enough, so they do not need to appear taller. I think the explanation here is that both are the same height but like most of us agree Julia and Cameron are closely to 169 cm, max 170cm and not to 175 or 176cm as they are listed in many sites.

Maybe My Best Friend's Wedding is one of those classic Hollywood examples where the director perposely makes the star of the movie taller than the supporting actors. I'm sure it doesn't only apply to male actors. Can anyone find any photos of Roberts and Diaz standing next to each other in public?

I see we all think Julia is shorter than 5'8" but she stands solidly as tall as Cameron Diaz in My Best Friend's Wedding; and there are several pics abuout it, just check wireimage and gettyimages.

Look at this picture, it's very interesting.She's on very high heels, but still shorter than Clooney. I think she's not 5'9½. I also think Clooney is wearing elevator shoes.www.juliarobertsonline.com/index.php?module=My_eGallery&do=showpic&pid=957&orderby=titleA

And see also on www.gettyimages.con photo number 51725422 where Julia with at least 2 inches heels is the same height of 5.7 Billy Crystal!
Consider also this: on www.gettyimages.com you can find also photos of Julia with Denzel Washington. Denzel is max 6.1 and he is always 4 inches taller than Julia who has 3 inches heels!!! (see image #810897) Julia is max 170, even if I think she is only 5.6!!!
Rob you have to downgrade her, in my opinion she is max 170 cm without heels. If you look at www.gettyimages.com you will find many photos of her near Paul Newman! She has at least 2 inches heels and she is the same height of Newman that is max 5.9!!!
And always on www.gettyimages.com in 3 inches (or more) heels she is shorter than 5.10 (maybe!) Russell Crowe

Since I have nothing else to do but read People Magazine, there is a picture in their Startrack section of Paul McCartney, Julia Roberts, and Paul Newman. Either one or all three have been clearly lying. Rob, see if you can find this, so we can decide!

In the museum scene where Catherine stops Julia to ask for an autograph in Ocean's Twelve, 5'7" Catherine Zeta Jones stands solidly as tall as Julia. I was reading a magazine and there was a photo of her with 5'5" Jennifer Aniston, and she only appeared 2 inches taller. Add the comment Justmatt says about her and Brad Pitt. I wonder why is it 5'7" Julia Stiles seems to be the same height as her in Mona Lisa Smile. Also she's now where near 4 inches taller than 5'5" Susan Surandon. Your 5ft 9in claim isn't fooling me Julia Roberts.

I think for woman to grow into her early 20s is extremely unlikely, most girls stop growing at around the age of 15, so the likelyhood of growth plates still being open for a female are extremely unlikely. On the other hand, many males still grow into their 20s, albeit by a few cms tops. I also recall watching an episode of the Late Late Show, where a 5'10" female guest said that she grew her last inch at 21, so I guess it is possible. She also marvelled at Craig Kilborn's height and the fact that she was still much shorter than he in heals.

Let's upgrade her to five eight and a half, if she once said I'm five ight and then five fine, then she's probabably was rounding up, unless she's has schrunk, she's 174 cm.

When comparing men's heights with women, do note that a standard heal on a woman's shoe is different from that of a man's shoe. Most women's shoes have atleast a 1.5 inch heal, while a man's shoe is usually around .5 of an inch...women often wear shoes with atleast a 2 inch heal. So unless Julia Roberts is barefoot in a scene with Andy Garcia or George Clooney, it truely must be her shoes. In Erin Brokovich she is ALMOST ALWAYS IN HEALS, I wouldn't be suprised one bit if she was the type of person whom in person wouldn't be as tall as she seams on screen.

Julia Roberts is Five foot nine, evidence of it is standing eye to eye with Gere
(then maybe slightly over five foot 10) And Clooney (who is at max 179 or just 1.80m) and even considering she wore or wore not heels on with him....
I actually did get her height fom an article at 177cm, so either the editor was wrong.. but I think no more than 1.75m
