I'm 5'2", and I get a lot of compliments on my legs, which is funny for a short girl. But they're one of my favourite things about my body.

I’ve just rewatched scream queens-
She looks taller than the other 3 main girls Emma Roberts / Billie Lourd and Abigail Breslin. Although I think all the girls are on the shorter end of the spectrum and their isn’t much between them - I just think she has the slight edge

On a glee episode her character Rachel says she is 5'2 so it makes sense for that to be Lea's actual height.

if 5'2 or 5'3 are below average, then that's considered short.

Becca Tobin is about 5'2" (or maybe a little bit less). Lea is also 5'2".

Do you know how tall is Becca Tobin, the one who plays Kitty on Glee?
And Lea's proportions are perfect, I mean I'm 5'2 and my legs look way shorter than hers

She can look taller because her legs are stupid long (and sexy), but I'd say 5'1-5'2 is about right.

5'2" is pretty accurate. She's over a foot shorter than Finn.

I met her at independence day this year,..she is adorable!! I´m 5´3 and she was slightly but stil noticeable smaller than me, I wore flipflops and she was in chucks, so I´d say she is 5ft 2,..not smaller nor taller!

Dianna agron has her own page and she is listed as 166cm. You can all discuss her height on her page. 5 foot 2.

If she's 5'2 or 5'3 then she's not short, considering 5'4 is average. Cory is just really tall, and all the other girls are above average.

moo, i think her character's supposed to be shorter. actually, they all seem shorter than they are on the show. before i looked it up i thought naya was 5'2 and diana was around 5'4. it's not very realistic for a 5'2 girl to be teased for her height anyway, when there are people under 5 feet in almost every school.

@Moo! 5'2" may not be, so to speak, "amazingly" short, however it's still pretty short. I'm 5'1" and my friends refer to me as a dwarf. Clearly I'm not. It's just teasing. Anything below 5'4" is short for a girl. Whether it's slightly, quite, very, or extremely, it doesn't matter; short is short. It's not necessarily a bad thing.

she referred to herself as a "Dwarf" on a recent episode so i think 5'2 is rather optimistic!

I wonder the height of her Spring Awakening and Glee costar, Jonathan Groff; He doesn't look that much taller than her, and most of the times he's wearing big boots... can anyone tell what his height is?
