Diddy claiming 6 ft 1 sounds about right! Let's hope he doesn't get Epsteined soon, he must have dirt on half of Hollywood!

5’10 with biggy. 6’1 is a triple whopper
King combs said on 13/Sep/23
Can you do his sons Quincy , Christian combs and Justin combs please ?

I think the two first sons are 5 ft 10 range just like Diddy but can’t pin point who’s taller. Out of all of them
Max Francis said on 3/May/23
He's exactly the same height as David Beckham, so needs an upgrade to 180 the range.
Brandon Churchill said on 24/Apr/23
He looks 5'7" in most pictures
Mickie said on 11/Aug/22
6'1" lol... That's a crazy estimate for him.

Rob, how tall do you think Nigerian singer Burna Boy is? He's listed as 6'1 on Google but I think he's more in the 5'11-6'0 range. I would love for you to look at him, he towers over Stefflon Don on heels, and he looks shorter than 6'1 Skepta
Editor Rob
Could be near 6ft, I saw an old Tweet where somebody said 6ft 2 and he replied "TRU".
Imagine him standing beside Skepta who only claims 6ft and he comes out with 6ft 2!

A 5'10 man claiming 6'1? Rob you should have said he joked about being 6'1. This listing is the most he could be. Looks a legit 3 inches shorter than Jay Z
Georgie said on 25/Aug/21
standing with drake he looks at least 5'10.5-5'11 if drake is a legit 6'0

Rob, My height is between 179.5 and 180 cm in the morning and 178.5 cm in the afternoon. I measured 178 at nights. What do you think my real height is?
179cm guy said on 11/May/19
Rob, he looks rather long-legged in this photo that you have posted for him. What would you guess his inseam at to the nearest inch?
Editor Rob
Could be 32,, doesn't seem particularly long for a 5ft 10 (or 10.5 guy).
'Annonymous' said on 30/Mar/19
Rob, why are you still giving him only 5'10"? In 2006, Diddy only looked three inches shorter than Will Smith:

Diddy looks easy four inches taller than The Weeknd:

As I mentioned earlier, the difference between Diddy and Ne-Yo can look from two and a half inches to three inches:

Please look at Diddy alongside Mark Wahlberg, considering that Wahlberg has more hair than Diddy, I just do not see only two inches between them:
Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here
I don't understand why you thought about the ordinary 5'10" if he never looks that low... Nah, Rob, since you say that 5'10.25" is the character you considered for him, just give it to him.
Editor Rob
I did give Diddy the 10.25 as generally he has seemed more a strong 5ft 10 during his career.
Gracian said on 6/Dec/18
Diddy next to Ne-Yo looks at least two and a half inches taller than him, maybe even three inches taller. Here are the pictures:

As I said before, many people estimate him as 5'10.5" and I can understand it, especially when I saw him next to Ne-Yo, Mark Wahlberg and Kanye West. Rob, what is your opinion?
Editor Rob
Diddy has pulled off looking a strong 5ft 10, it is a figure (5ft 10.25) which I have considered for him.
'Anonymous' said on 23/Oct/18
From what I've seen the height from Diddy is controversial! He looks over 2 inches taller than Mark Wahlberg and Kanye West. Please take a look at these Diddy's photos next to Kanye:

Even taking into account the shoes advantage from Diddy, he should not look so high to only have 5'10". Rob, many people estimate him as 5'10.5". Your thoughts?

178 cm he wears heels like brad pitt
Smiles03 said on 4/May/18
He's 5'11 6'1 in them shoes
Zampo said on 21/Apr/18
A solid 5'10 (5'10 1/8), doubt he ever dips below this height, also stands pretty well.
Smiles03 said on 17/Apr/18
Between 5'10 and 6'0
The Shredder said on 1/Jan/18
I don't know if it's his footwear or not but he does generally look closer to 5'11 than 5'10 , I thought his old 5'10.5 looked better and I wouldn't rule out 5'11. I question his footwear though?

I saw a video from the Viner 'King Bach', the video had Diddy in it, and King Bach is listed as 5'9" and Diddy was towering over him.
Nik said on 5/Jun/17
@ 6'1-6'1.5 Guy

Yes I agree with you! He is more likely to be above 5'10" than below 5'10"!
6'1-6'1.5 Guy said on 4/Jun/17
This is 5'10 guy!
Nik said on 3/May/17
@Sandy Cowell

Oh I can see now where the origins of that name came from! It's interesting that he is down as having 2 different heights, I wonder which one of these is right or whether he is actually between 5'10" and 6'0"? He's certainly not diddy and I think that he looks taller than most guys who are a flat 5'10"!
A few kids used to smoke in the yard at school but I have never smoked one cigarette in my entire life, thankfully I was never pressured into it or I probably would have smoked at some stage. I wouldn't be pressured into it now though!
I think that this "diddy" man is certainly pushing 5'11"!

Cheers!
Sandy Cowell said on 3/May/17
@ Nik - He looks taller than 5ft10! I just checked him out when I saw your comment on the 'Latest Comments' page! He looks anything but 'diddy'! Ha ha ha to that! I have heard of 'Puff Daddy', and reading just now that he has a police record (stating 2 different heights!), the penny has only just dropped as to the origins of the name! THAT can't be very good for the height, can it? Indeed any kind of smoking is so damaging. I'm glad I never smoked a single cigarette until I was 16 1/2, when people were lighting up in the economics lessons because the teacher was lenient! You were regarded as a bit of a jerk if you didn't, but then one boy made a stand and said we were all stupid and I thought he risked being ridiculed for saying that but no, he was respected, just like he should have been! He was of above average height, and maybe his sensible attitude helped him turn him into a guy of 6ft or 6ft1, who knows?
I will give the not-so-diddy Puff Daddy 5ft11!
Nik said on 2/May/17
He is by no means diddy!
thatgyy said on 30/Apr/17
Why does everyone on here try and make everyone seem shorter and say everyone is wearing lifts, some people don't even think about it and there are people that are being called self conscious and lift wearers
Moe said on 27/Apr/17
Met him by chance in public. I can confidently say that he is 179 cm. He needs an upgrade
Adamz said on 9/Apr/17
Diddy was listed as 180cm before. What justifies a full 2cm downgrade?? I think 180cm was more accurrate to be honest. 179cm at least!??
Capetownjazzy said on 18/Mar/17
Near Kevin Love he looks a very good 5'10
Alex said on 4/Jan/17
How tall would u guys guess his son christian ?
ArthurJohn said on 23/Nov/16
Here is why using photos to compare height isn't always accurate or fully reliable,

These are are a couple of pictures of Diddy next to his MT waxwork

Click Here and Click Here - in these photos he looks the same height as his waxwork as he should look, in fact he might slightly edge it out if anything.

Click Here - but here in this photo, he's looking shorter than it, even thought its at the same place and time as the previous photographs!

Different camera angles, and perhaps even posture can change the perception of how tall someone could look compared to another person, even if both are the same height like shown above! In other words I'm saying guesstimating someone's height based on 1 photograph is not always enough, as its not always an accurate representation of real life.

half inch shorter than Tyrese who is a weak 5'9".Puffy is 5'8.5 barefoot. With lifts 5'10"
Blink_284 said on 25/Jun/15
5'11 maximum, the picture with Wallberg tells you. Wahlberg is very believable at 5'8 and both are in normal (not extra thick) sneakers. The difference between them could be no more than 3 inches. In most of the other pictures he was wearing (or might have been wearing) formal shoes and those would have made him taller than the sneakers.

Mark Wahlberg also looks A LOT shorter than P. Diddy in pictures so Mark should be downgraded, he could be slightly under 5'7.

@Tony,

Diddy is very clearly taller than Usher. A few shots from just this year:

Click Here

Even accounting for the footwear difference in the first photo, it's clear that Diddy is taller. Still, I'm not convinced Usher is a full 5'8", so there is that.
tony said on 3/Nov/13
i saw him in a event and he is the same height as Usher who was there too
rider said on 27/Oct/13
To people who say biggie was 6'3 b.s his autopsy has him at 6'1. Theres a video with him and jay-z performing.Jay-z at 6'2 is taller than biggie for sure back in 08 i saw diddy at hancock premiere.He's 5'10 tops he had boots on so probably 5'9 without them.
cole said on 28/Jul/13
5'9 max is rubbish. 5'10 minimum.
teej said on 3/Jul/13
Hes a legit 5 10 just an average guy.. And looked 5 inches shorter than Biggie, and he was 6'3 and looked a legit 6 3 even though he could look shorter because he slouched a lot, he had that james gadolfini posture.
cole said on 18/Jun/13
He looked WAY more than 1" taller than Paul Rudd in the Go Kindergarten video, but then again Paul ain't 5'9.
coke said on 20/Mar/13
My friends just got a pic at a movie premier with him. They are 5'7 tops... Diddy is barely taller than them. Yeah. 5'9 sounds right.

Russel ash in that photo he looks 179cm. How tall is ludacris? 5 foot 6? Busta rhymes is huge. He looks 6 foot 5 at least.

Busta does look a similar height to Snoop Dogg in that pic. looks a lot taller than 6'1!
Mr. R said on 7/Jun/12
Saw him at a party in Hwood. Walked right past me. 5-9 tops.
Lebensdorf said on 4/Jun/12
No way he's this tall. I would say 5'9" max. He's good friends with Ashton Kutcher. Kutcher, who's around 6'2", towers over him.

noticably shoooorter than 6foot rick ross, If Ross is 6foot, then diddy is 5.9-5.9'5, he always wears dress shoes/boots ..thats why he might look taller(diddy)
5'11 barefoot... said on 26/Jun/11
no way is he 5'10.5.....just subtract about 2-3 inches and that is his true height.....will smith is 5 to 6 inches taller than puff...period....puff is not tall at all...he is average height just like his music....
Bizzy said on 7/Jun/11
Ok, time to put this case to rest. Diddy looks at least 3 inches shorter than 6 footer Tyson Beckford here: Click Here You can tell by his body proportions (meaning length of limbs, not musculature) compared to Tysons proportions that he's built like a slightly smaller than average guy. Im guessing his exact height is somewhere between 5'8.25 to about grazing 5'9(5'8.75) and is a frequent lift wearer.

P.S. R Kelly is not 6'1" more like 5'11.5 to a weak 6 foot. There is a youtube clip of him and Jay Z singing "t-shirt" and he is noticeably shorter than Jay(who is 6'1.5) by a couple of inches.

Tyson Beckford isnt even 6-0
Dane said on 29/Mar/11
looks really 5'8' ish, 50 cents 5'10.5-5'11ish. He was dwarfed by 6 footer Tyson Beckford. So im assuming 5'7"- 5'8" natural height.
Tony said on 10/Feb/11
Viper says on 11/Jul/10
50 cent is 5'10.5 Max

I'd say more like 5'11 def not 6 feet i know a bodygaurd in Ny sais at most he thought he was 5'10 when he worked for him

David said on 22/Jan/11
On 'The Graham Norton Show' he was wearing noticeable heels, and he looked about 2-3" taller than Graham Norton who is around 5'8" so perhaps 5'9.5" - 5'10" is a decent bet. Certainly no more though.
SH said on 5/Jan/11
Met him as my friend is a concert promoter, I would say 5'10'' is good. 5'7'' is laughable he is certainly taller than that

diddy is 5-11.
Big T said on 24/Feb/09
Mr R, did you read my post from October 1?

If Diddy is, say, 5' 9 1/2", that makes Mase under 5'9" and Nelly and Usher under 5'8"- Usher more 5'7" really. Not impossible but certainly interesting.
Mr. R. said on 24/Feb/09
Did anyone catch my post on P. Diddy? I met him the other night. He was standing right in front of me. He is between 5-9 and 5-10.
Mr. R. said on 13/Feb/09
Okay, I consider this my biggest scoop of the night. I was working the door at The NAACP afterparty. Diddy walked up to the door and was DENIED entrance, because the fire marshal would not allow anybody in. I SAW IT WITH MY OWN EYES! However, Diddy was standing directly in front of me when he was denied and I can report that Diddy is between 5-9 and 5-10. He is 5-10 on a VERY good day. I was almost two inches taller than him, and he was standing directly in front of me.

Saw him on Leno two nights ago. Looked at least 1 inch shorter than Jay who's supposedly 5'11. I think that 5'10 police record was correct.

same height as Daniel Craig and Brad Pitt (5ft 10")
Big T said on 1/Oct/08
I just watched an entire countdown of Diddy music videos. To my surprise (I initially thought he was overlisted) Rob has him exactly right.

He has a solid inch on Mase in "Mo Money Mo Problems"

He looks taller compared to 5 8 1/2 listed Nelly in the "Shake Ya Tailfeather" video than 5'10" listed Akon does in their "Body on Me" video. Actually, Diddy looks more than 2 inches over Nelly, maybe even 3.

He looks a good 2.5 inches over 5'8" Usher in "I need a girl"- again, maybe 3 inches.

He really isn't a short guy.

About 5'9 at best, looks like he wears lifts in his dress shoes when he's wearing a suit, but look at his legs, they are very short and stumpy looking for a so called 6 footer,
B said on 19/Jul/08
I walked right past him in NYC and at the time I was 5' 81/2'' and he had about 2 inches on me so he is definitely close to 5' 11'' so 5' 101/2'' sounds right.
glenn said on 19/Jun/08
he is 3 inches taller than me.the only thing funnier here than seeing 4,5 inches taller is claiming anything lower than 5-10 without ever seeing the guy in person.i see him all the time.
GSP said on 18/Jun/08
lol at 4-5 inches. More like 2 inches tops. BTW glenn drops to 5'7.25 at night. That would put Diddy at 5'9.25 at best

never 5'10! never in a million years ! how he got a 5'10 on his police reports ill never know. 5'9" at the tallest! Lucky to have even an inch on Glenn. what did u think when u met him Glenn? also did u see his footwear, he is superficial and flashy enough in my opinion to meet the criteria as a regular lift wearer.

its amazing how his dress sense has changed over the past 15 years,going from gangsta to corporate.even when rapping,his rag clothes gotta have the tinge of 'designer' on them,and sometimes he raps wearing these corporate suits!he's made his millions..

5'10 for sure.

P. Smith said on 26/Apr/07
The music video "Victory" bills Sean at 6 foot and 180lbs. Personally, he always looked 5-11 to me. So I buy the 5-10.5...
dmeyer said on 24/Apr/07
p diddy didnt look mush shorter than me so 5'10 aleast or marginaly over
glenn said on 24/Apr/07
6ft in footwear.
Brad said on 23/Apr/07
Probably gave Officer Gleason a bill and said "put me at 6'"
glenn said on 20/Apr/07
i thought you said the police would know nas height? diddy isnt 6ft.a hair under 5-11.
Brad said on 20/Apr/07
6' in his NYPD arrest jacket from 1995.

Also in the second picture you are both leaning, and it looks like he is just trying more to fit in the picture. If you both weren't leaning then it would still be an inch in height difference. Not two and half inches!

Rob,

Here's P. Diddy with 5'9.5" Patrick Dempsey:

1. Click Here

This also means that Daniel Craig needs to be brought down to a more realistic height:

2. Click Here
He can look taller, of course, but who can't? Perhaps, both Patrick Dempsey and Daniel Craig are wearing lifts in both of those photos and Diddy's not? I doubt it.

Editor Rob
the links need to be modified, I fixed them this time, try in future for getty to make them of the following format:

Ran into Diddy outside of a club in South Beach. They had ropes up, but I was right against the ropes, he walked up right in front of me passing me as he walked into the club. Only had sneakers on and I was surprised just how short he seemed. I'm 5'9" and he was definitely no taller than me - maybe an inch shorter (5'8"), small frame as well
Glenn said on 1/Feb/07
I never noticed.really?
Scarlet said on 31/Jan/07
omg, Glenn how come you never mentioned that you and Daniel Craig are the same height next to Diddy?
dmeyer said on 1/Jan/07
thanks glenn i think he is close to 179
Glenn said on 19/Nov/06
Correct Dmeyer.5-10.5 might be accurate.
dmeyer said on 18/Nov/06
to me looks 179 or a strong 178 since he looked only 2 inches shorter than tyra who weared 3.5 inches in he was in low heeled snikers so 5'10 pushing 5'11
dmeyer said on 16/Nov/06
when i met him he looked 5'10 to 5'11
Anonymous said on 13/Sep/06
i met p diddy in a club in NYC where im from im a even 6ft flatfooted and i was wearing regular shoes and hes at most 5"9 which is average so, whatever, but 5"11 i dont think so , if a person is 6ft and the other is 5"11 u really cant tell the difference unless you look close, but i had at minimum 2in closer to 3, im a say 5"9.5ft topps
Anonymous said on 7/Sep/06
he looked 179 when i met him pushing 5 11 but we werent on the exact same floor he was wearing low heeled mocasin i think just over 5 10 ne less
hyphyshark said on 4/Sep/06
Anyone know how tall are the girls of Danity Kane since Diddy is taller than all of them?
Viper652 said on 18/Aug/06
I find it really strange that 5-7 listings for P-diddy are all around the internet. I wonder why? Makes me a little suspicious.
Anonymous said on 17/Aug/06
Glenn's head is facing straight and you can see that Diddy's head is a facing down a lil. He might be 5"11 or very close to it...
Anonymous said on 10/Aug/06
He is no way 5 foot 10. When I met him he was only a few inches taller than me and I'm 5'6". I'd guess either 5'7"-5'9"
Bear said on 20/Jul/06
Kanye looks like he's wearing moccasins too...
T said on 23/Jun/06
Definitely 5' 9"
MD said on 18/Jun/06
Here he is with 5'8" Nelly and 6'1-6'1.5" Jay Z.

I can definitely see 5'10"

Editor Rob
178 could be closer to the truth...than 179 yes
Glenn said on 16/Jun/06
Thanks for backing me dmeyer.
dmeyer said on 14/Jun/06
he looked close to 5'11 when i met him
Glenn said on 13/Jun/06
In Robs defence Diddy can look 5-10 to 5-11 whenever I see him,and on trial 7 years ago,they stated 5-11 on a couple occassions.
J. said on 13/Jun/06
Puffy never looks below 5'10".
MD said on 12/Jun/06
Yeah, I have no idea how Rob is pulling 5'10.5" from that picture, and the many other sightings and pictures.

Editor Rob
With 'i'm 5ft 6' chris evert' he could be 178 on the nose...trainers with Willis same again maybe...on the nose...

speaking of pics, I've got a pic I'll put up in the future of me+Roger Cross and in it he is not more than 182cm, so I'm still trying to figure out where 6cm went to...
MHouillon said on 11/Jun/06
Looking at this picture (Glenn wears no lifts for sure) gives Sean Combs 176cm MAXIMUM! Not 179cm, ROB! It's time to change Diddy's Height. I'm serious.
Smoke said on 19/Apr/06
I always thought he was 6ft that is what it says at the start of the Victory video
Height:6ft
Weight:180 pounds.
Ujane, Moscow said on 11/Apr/06
agree, Brett! Perhaps of the angle it is 2.5in difference so we can`t see it!
ForensicNYC said on 3/Apr/06
Yeah 5'10" is just about right...this guy is "class" enough NOT to wear lifts.
Ain't gonna catch him wearing those silly high heels. Just Gucci, Prada, Fendi, Dolce & Gabbana, DKNY, and maybe a bit of UGG!
Brett said on 13/Mar/06
looks like he has 1.5 inches max over Glenn there?
Chris said on 3/Mar/06
man P diddy don't look 5 10 stNDING RIGHT NEXT TO A GUY THATS 5 8 THEY KINDA LOOK THE SAME HIRGHT TO ME WELL ACTUALLY HE LOOKS AN INCH TALLER BUT THAT'S ALL
D. Ray Morton said on 16/Feb/06
165 lbs.? At 5'10"?

I always thought the brutha was bigger than that. (Unless he really *is* only 5'9" or so...)
Tam-Tam said on 15/Feb/06
he is just under 5'10'',the police decribed him this hight.
zenski said on 12/Feb/06
Rob please look at this mugshot of P Diddy the plice decribe him as 5'10''.You got to change his hight

trueheight said on 30/Jan/06
strange because PD looked about 6 foot in Monsters Ball walking next to BB Thornton, he was barefoot as well
CoolJ said on 23/Jan/06
He's about 1/4 - 1/2 inch taller than Mase.. I'm thinking 5'10 even
Mr. Awesome said on 23/Jan/06
rob, he's not further back than glenn, his body is just turned slightly, which would not make him seem shorter (or at least not that much)...in order for their hands to be together in that manner, then he couldn't possibly be farther back...diddy's right shoulder is just as close to the camera as glenn's...he's not even a step further from the camera then glenn...diddy looks 5'9.5'' at best

Editor Rob
I'm talking inches here from camera, yeah 'further back' makes it sound he's away in the distance ;-)
MHouillon said on 22/Jan/06
Yes, Diddy is a 178cm maximum. Not a shade over 5'10.
MD said on 21/Jan/06
Is there some reason why he literally only looks half-an-inch taller than Glenn, there?

Editor Rob
further back than glenn
CoolJ said on 21/Jan/06
He's about 5'10.. not 5'10.5 like Rob says
Mr. Awesome said on 21/Jan/06
he's sure not lookin over 5'10'' compared to glenn
Horatio said on 17/Dec/05
On a Puff Daddy music video, at the start they list his height at 6'. I think he's a good bit shorter than that though. Probably in the 5'8-5'10" range.
JJ said on 16/Dec/05
Editor Rob, I was watching VH1 the other night and they were making fun of the fact that Diddy and Bruce Willis are friends. They showed the two together and Willis looks a good 2.5-3 inches taller in every scene (maybe 4 diff scenes). Out of curiosity, why is he listed so much taller than other sites?
yachtie said on 11/Dec/05
Listen up,I work as the captain of a big superyacht,the type which all the celebs love to charter.I have never had P.Diddy on my boat,however i did stand right beside him during the Formula 1 race in Monaco and believe me when i tell you that he was shockingly short.I am 5'9 and at the time i was wearing very flat deck shoes,P.Diddy was wearing a suit and heeled dress shoes,the terrain was even and flat, and as god is my witness i had 3 inches on the little guy, i coulden't fathom it and looked a few times to be sure that it wasen't all smoke and mirrors...not a chance.I'd say bare-footed he's 5'5 max!!
phast said on 30/Nov/05
P. Diddy definitely wears lifts. He always looks like a 6'er on TV and awards shows, but my friend's Dad actually ran the NY marathon behind Diddy. He said he wanted to talk to Diddy and encourage him (lol), but Diddy had his "runners" running next to him to keep him from being bothered. Anyhow, my friend's Dad said he was way shorter than he expected. He's 5'10 and ran about 2 feet behind Diddy for a while in an effort to get on camera (lol), and told me he was about 2 inches taller than Diddy. I guess you can't run in lifts. It's sad that someone that successful and powerful is that insecure.
Glenn said on 30/Nov/05
keep in mind, listen to those who have met him.I have many times and have photos with him.he looks 5-10,5-11.Im 5-8.does he wear lifts? I doubt it,but that would make him 5-8 or less.I believe he truly is the height stated.your right about Mase.he is 5-10.
Joe said on 28/Nov/05
P Diddy is no where near 5'10. I used to think he was over 6' but after discovering this site I started to pay closer attention. He did this Vote or Die Ad for MTV during the last election and he has a picture w/ the cast of the Real World Philadelphia. I can't find that picture online anymore but will post it if it turns up. Anyhow, he looked 2' shorter than Landon in that picture. My buddy went to school w/ Landon and said he's around 5'10, so that would make Diddy around 5'8.

Also, there was an interview on Access Hollywood where he looked 3 inches shorter than Billy Bush, who has stated that he's 5'11 (and I doubt he would understate his height). They had a couple of leveled shots during the interview but other than that the camera kept shooting from an angle that made Diddy look taller.
~Nate~ said on 20/Nov/05
When I met Puffy at Mariahs album release party he was about 3 inches taller then 5'8.5' Mariah and she was in about 4 inch heels. When I shook his hand we were exactly the same height, I was wearing more of a sandal type shoe and he was wearing dress shoes with a big sole but he was bout the same height as me and I'm 6'1. Im not sure if he was wearing lifts because I didnt ask him to take off his shoes! LOL but He was my height.
Viper652 said on 10/Nov/05
Puff daddy is interesting. Why is he listed everywhere at 5-7?? Does he wear lifts?? Its odd.
Joel said on 9/Nov/05
To give this guy anything over 5'9 is obsurd!
PopQ said on 9/Nov/05
But Ciara is shorter than Puff the diddy. So Puff gotta be 5'11 or more. I know he's not my hight-4'0.
Christian said on 27/Oct/05
I'm 5'10 with no quarter
Anonymous said on 17/Oct/05
He is not 5ft 10.5. My friend's a huge fan of his and ran next to him for a little bit during the ny marathon. JJ said he was about arms distance from diddy and noticed that he towered over him. JJ's 6' so there's no way he can be even 5'10. I always thought diddy was somewhere in the 6'1 range but JJ said he's probably 5'8 or so.
James said on 14/Oct/05
P.Diddy is 5'9ish", 5'10" with heels on. J.Lo compared his height to Ben Afflecs(spelling?) when she was dating Ben, she said Ben is 6'2", and Diddy is 5'9".
J. said on 6/Oct/05
I do recall that episode of Making the Band that the previous poster mentions. Chopper, one of the members of the 'Da Band' was a lanky 6'4", by the way. In the episode, Puff asks Chopper to stand up. They stand next to each other and compare arm length. I couldn't help to notice that Puffy looked quite short next to Chopper. But the thing that confuses me with him is that Puff can easily look 6'0"+ in many ocassions. With an ego like his, I think a pair of Sean John elevator shoes in that vast closet of his!!!
ya-boy said on 6/Oct/05
if anybody listens, puff said he was 5'7" on air on making the band (chopper, baps) He was talking about boxing and how short his arms where.
Holla at the name given!!!
A-Bomb said on 5/Oct/05
Do any of you guys know Bill O'Rielly conservative ditto-head who has a show on Fox News? 6'5" guy, likes to use his height to intimidate people. In his 2001 book he spoke of his interview with Puff Daddy and his disdain for the man couldn't be more obvious (he doesn't like rap!). In the book he called Puff a shrimp and placed him at 5'7". Obviously Puff's taller than this and O'Rielly was trying to put him down as much as he could (or that at 6'5" it's very hard to estimate someones height). Maybe this is where those 5'7" sightings came from.
J. said on 4/Oct/05
Well, Mz. Carmelo, the NYPD sure thinks that Diddy is 5'10": http://www. Mugshots.net/puff_daddy/
CoolJ said on 14/Jun/05
I don't think he's this tall. He's about 5'9.5", nearly the same as Mase
Mr. R said on 26/May/05
Jay, Diddy and Foxx were pictured in the forward section of that issue, where they have snapshots of celebrities at various events and such. And hey, don't be hatin' on these boys. Okay they are not my cup of tea, but somebody somewhere may find them to be hot! They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder! (Sometimes the beholder seems to be blind!)
Jay said on 25/May/05
Mr. R, why was P. Diddy and Jamie Foxx in 50 most beautiful people magazine? Not to sound cocky but they seem like they fit the ugly duckling list. And besides that 5'9 on the dot is p diddy's height in my opinion.
dmeyer said on 8/May/05
i worked on the diet pepsi comercial he did looked between 179-182 cm and he was wearing very low heel shoes 1.5 cm
Mr. R said on 5/May/05
One day Puffy, er Diddy was asked his height. He responded along the lines of he was six feet tall exactly, because that's what a real man is. SO THERE!
Monty said on 24/Mar/05
He doesn't seem that much taller then Usher who is 5'8.
