Gloria Estefan is very sweet and pretty,like all petite women. It's true she nearly died in her 1990 bus crash,and battled severe bronchitis prior to the bus crash,but Gloria tried to perform on her bronchitis,aggravating her nasty nagging bronchitis coughing spasms,but I found out recently why Gloria was more severely injured in her bus crash than what Barbara Mandrell,also 5'2",was in her 1984 automobile accident. Gloria's tour bus lacked seat belts,while petite Barbara buckled up before her automobile crash. Despite the bus crash,Gloria is still a nice singer. Love you,Gloria!

Gloria is a beautiful singer. She can dance nicely,too,but she was very sick prior to her bus crash,too. She caught a severe attack of acute viral bronchitis six months earlier and she was coughing,coughing,coughing,coughing from that bronchitis!(Doubtless,petite Gloria must have gone through a lot of cough medicine trying to calm that nasty bronchitis cough! She sounded just like my petite 4'10" friend Joanie did four years ago when she bowled state fall Special Olympics on a nasty chest cold. Her mommy Pam gave her some cough medicine for her chest cold,but it turned into bronchitis!) But one of Gloria's coughing spasms broke two blood vessels in her chest,throat,and bronchial tubes,triggering pneumonia. But lovingly,Gloria overcame that illness. I never saw Gloria in person,unlike 5'1" Barbara Mandrell,but she's pretty in anything she wears,from shorts to gowns. Love you,Gloria!

Having been a car wreck victim myself,I was saddened by Gloria Estefan's 1990 bus crash,just like 5'2" Barbara Mandrell's 1984 car crash hit me hard,too. But just like Barbara,Gloria overcame her broken back from her bus crash,although I hadn't heard much about 5'1" Gloria prior to the bus crash. But just like Barbara,Gloria's sweet love helped her recovery,although she again caught pneumonia following her back surgery. This pneumonia,though,wasn't as serious as Gloria's pre bus crash pneumonia,but she still had trouble calming her bronchial pneumonia coughs. Lovingly,too,like with Barbara,Gloria's fans and family gave her lots of tender love,which she and Barbara desperately needed. Also,credit should also go to Gloria and Barbara not ending up drug addicts after their wrecks,unlike some other car crash victims. (Neither did I become a drug addict after my car wreck.) I wish I could have seen Gloria,but I still love her,anyway.

When 5'1" Gloria battled pneumonia prior to her bus crash in 1990,she caught bronchitis while on a tour. She just couldn't stop coughing,just like my 4'10" girlfriend Joanie couldn't calm her barking cough last winter when she came down with bronchitis. Worst off,Gloria tried to perform on her bronchitis,aggravating the sweetheart's nagging cough from her bronchitis. But Gloria's persistant hacking cough broke two blood vessels in her chest,triggering the viral pneumonia she battled before the bus crash.

I didn't have the slightest inkling how tall Gloria E was. Then I watched her 1986 video "bad boys". I noticed her frame, her movement, and the spring in her step, I said "I just know she's 5-2!". Then I went immediately to celebheights and I see that I was right.

Oswaldo: Stop giving false figures! 5'5" is NOT the average for women. it's 5'4" or a tad more but no full 5'5". Why should she be taller? What tha f*****?

Madonna's taller, some speculate about her height, someone I dated danced with her at the former Roxy nightclub here in NYC an he said, he went down about 2-3 inches, 'from 5'4-5'2'.. but she seems to look b/n 5'3-5'3.5..Not that tiny, but she has to wear 4-5in heels just to look a bit tall, 5'7-5'8! Unfortunately, she's expected to be taller given her achievements, like 5'6 or 5'8 even, but she's just under average, which is 5'5 for women. Expectations, expectations!

She did a book signing and 200 people whispered "She's so tiny!!!". Madonna has her Dr. Beat by 3".

I've seen her doing a duet with N Sync or someone like that and I was suprised at how tiny she was next to them. she barely came up to their belts.

Gloria Estefan thinks she's about the same height as Madonna. Personally i don't think she's about Madonna's height. It's my opinion that she looks about the same height as my mom except a lil bit taller!

I wonder if the 5 ft. 1.75 in. given here was her height before she broke her back in the early 90's. In this pic with Matthew McConaughey and Janet Jackson, she looks about 2 inches (or more)shorter than Janet. Since I believe Janet Jackson is around 5'3, this makes me wonder if Gloria is shorter nowadays?
