17 Short Male Celebs Who Prove Size Doesn't Matter
It has got to be tough being a short male. Women can wear heels and plan outfits to elongate their legs, but there is not much for a guy to do. Usually the best way to over come being vertically challenged is to have an outrageous personality. This is probably why a lot of comedians are shorties. I feel like funny people can get away with whatever they want. But being short has not stopped these 17 celebrities from making it big in Hollywood. Some names are obvious but others just may surprise you. "He's really that short?" Yeah, but not when he's standing on his wallet.
Tom Cruise
Tom Cruise, 5’7”, is famous for getting with tall women. He was married to Nicole Kidman, 5’11”, and Katie Holmes, 5’9”. It’s been reported that Cruise wears lifts in his shoes to get some extra height.
Seth Green
Seth Green is only 5’4”, so his wife Clare Grant, who is 5’7” towers over him in a pair of heels.
Pete Wentz
Pete Wentz makes up for his 5’6” stature with a lot of charisma. I’m too focused on Pete Wentz’s antics to notice his height… except for when he stands next to his girlfriend Meagan Camper, who is a 5’10” model.
Kevin Hart
Kevin Hart may be short in height at 5’4”, but no one could ever accuse him of being short on confidence. He has even incorporated his small stature into his stand up routine.
Aziz Ansari
Aziz Ansari is vertically challenged with a height of 5’6”, but that doesn’t stop him from being a successful comedian.
Prince
For someone so short, Prince, who’s only 5’2”, does not seem to have any problem getting with the ladies.
Danny Devito
Danny Devito made up for being only five feet tall by becoming a major star and showcasing his larger than life comedy chops.
Jon Stewart
Maybe Jon Stewart’s height of 5’7” is why he made a career out of sitting behind a news desk? This is obviously just speculation, but it’s possible.
Jack Black
Jack Black compensates for being 5’6” with his hilarious sense of humor.
Martin Scorsese
Martin Scorcese is one of the biggest directors in Hollywood history so his height of 5’4” does not even matter. But maybe this is why he spends his time behind the camera instead of in front of it?
Scott Caan
The Hawaii Five-0 star is only 5’5”, but he can still pull off playing the role of a tough guy detective.
Josh Hutcherson
Josh Hutcherson, who stands at 5’7”, is one of the biggest stars around right now because of his role in The Hunger Games movies.
Daniel Radcliffe
I bet Daniel Radcliffe wishes he was actually a wizard so he could cast a spell to be taller than 5’5”.
Elijah Wood
Elijah Wood is famous for playing a hobbit, so it’s no surprise to learn that he is just 5’6”.
Rob Schneider
Adam Sandler’s perpetual sidekick is only 5’7”.
Michael J. Fox
Michael J. Fox is 5’4 1/2” and he doesn’t want you to forget that half-inch! He reportedly told the Virginian Pilot, “I’m 5 feet 4 1/2 inches tall. Don’t forget the one-half inch.”
