How tall is Nik Kershaw

Nik Kershaw's Height

5ft 4 (162.6 cm)

British Singer-Songwriter. He commented upon his height in the guardian newspaper, "I am not tall – I was 5ft 4in last time I measured myself, but I am probably smaller now: people start shrinking at 45. But my limited stature used to be my USP, so I haven't got a major issue with it. Although it is bloody inconvenient when I'm out buying clothes or if I want to see over someone's head at a concert."

Nik’s wife is a wee bit taller than him and this is super cool!

I’d never have thought that Nik is as short as Baldrick! (Tony Robinson). It hardly helped Tony as he starred in ‘Blackadder’, and that had a tall cast.

5ft4.

I think Nik Kershaw is a fantastic songwriter and extreemely accomplished musician. He can place various segments of music together to create very complicated arrangrements. I really like the horn arrangement in the song wouldn't it be good. I was at my girlfreinds apartment listening watching live aid when he came on and that song just blew me away. It's really sad that the guy in the song has got it so bad that he can't rise above
All he can do is wish there could be some way out. He really cares for that girl but doesn't want her to be in his shoes
This is a very heart breaking song that really pulls on your emotions. When my girlfriend heard it that song really got to her. All the poor guy can do is wish and hope for a better place and time. It's such a great song Nik and one that will always be remembered. It's one of the great ones that all songwriters strive to achieve in their lifetime.

Nik is honest and he has a great attitude, he flys the flag for shorter guys. 😀👌

Apparently, Nik was at a party I attended. I wouldn’t have known him from Adam! Alice Cooper-worshipping Adam Ant? Now THAT would have been different!

5ft4 😁👍

😫 Correction Time! 😫

That should have been 'hurled your way's a bit off-putting!'

I put 'ways'. It's wrong!
Sandy Cowell said on 21/Jul/18
Hmm! This guy is very accepting and matter-of-fact about his shortness and I kind of like it! I know exactly what he means about not being able to see at a concert and as he's a guy, he can hardly get away with sitting on someone's shoulders! Not that I ever did; the thought of having bottles hurled your ways a bit off-putting!

Nik Kershaw gets 5ft4.

What does he mean by "USP"?
Editor Rob
possibly his unique selling position?

Never knew he was so small, nothing wrong with that though!
Maximus Meridius said on 27/Aug/12
Rob is there a chance he was 5ft 5in when he was younger he might have been an inch taller in his younger days.
Editor Rob
I doubt he's lost much

I agree with little sue. With his honesty, he's higher, or should I say taller than actors who are 5'11 claiming to be 6'1.

At least he is honest over his lack of inches, better looking now than when he was younger, whether he was 5ft 4 or 6ft 4 I'd fancy him!
