Rob have you seen her with adam sandler? Sandler have atleast half inch on her. No way they are the same height. I think like i always have said, sandler is really 178 cm and she maybe 176,5 on a good day.
Editor Rob
Saw an episode of equaliser the other day and she could look 5ft 9 to 9.5

I was 5’11 in high school and now closer to 5’8 years and weight up and down affect things and when you are younger you try to play down being taller. You choose everything to play it down. I got married in. Booty socks because my husband was shorter. But as you age and society changes you begin to not care. She is such a beautiful woman with class to her!!!

Legit guesses. I met her in person, stood right next to her. I’m 5’10 with shoes on and she was practically eye level with me with flats on.

No way is Queen Latifah a similar height and build to Serena Williams!! Serena is 5'9 and actually looks tiny in comparison to Latifah, Serena has a much slimmer build and Latifah actually makes Serena not look as big and muscular as everyone thinks she is. She looks petite if anything lol

Is 5 ft 9.75 her height in high heels? She looks tall but then most females are 5 ft 2 range so if she was 5 ft 6 flat fet she would still be taller than most females and in heels she would be close to 5 ft 10 range. It's hard to measure a female Celebrities height because many include heels to their height where some don't.I have found websites where the models were showned being measured while in heels.One girl measured 5 ft 10 inches and the people commenting about her where over whelmed that she was 5 ft 10 not taking note that she was being measured while wearing 8 inch heels. So i will say Queen Latifah is 5 ft 6 inches flat feet and 5 ft 9.75 with heels on.

The movies called "bringin down the house" Toni. And in case you may have forgotten, she was wearing high heels in just about every scene. And in barbershop she was not in high heels, and stood eye to eye with ice cube who is 5'8 with his 2 inch Afro. And considering its more realistic to measure the eyes, nose or or shoulders because peoples hair can be misleading, queen latifah may have been able to claim 5'6 for one movie, then claim 5'10 but flat footed be as tall as a man who struggles with 5'8. Im thinking she is a strong 5'8 if not 5'8.5

In taxi she was an inch or 2 shorter than 6 foot jimmy fallon. 5 foot 9. She is tall and heavy.
But 1 or 2 inch shorter than 6 foot is 5'11 or 5'10....

I never understood why they said 5'6 in Bringing Down The House.I guess that the character that she was playing was supposed to be 5'6.I just watched Beauty Shop the other night on TV and I saw Queen Latifah at the American Music Awards.She looks 5'9 without her heels.

In bringing down the house they said she was 5 foot 6. Next to 6 foot 2 steve martin, she was a few inches shorter with heels on. I think steve martin is close to 6 foot 1 next to 5 foot 11 eugene levy. Queen Latifah was about the same height as eugene levy with heels on. I would say she's between 173cm-177cm.

In taxi she was shorter than jimmy fallon but she was slightly shorter than gisele bundchen. So she must be 5 foot 9 or a little taller.

Yeah I just saw her at an awards show next to Zac Efron and he's like 5'7" or so right ? She was HEAPS taller than him, of course she DID wear high heals but she was still a good 6 if not 7 inches taller than him. So 5'& Efron with 1" soles + 5'8"...plus 6" makes 6'2"...so she was about 6'2" in high heels. Definitely 5'9"+ then !!! Huge lady !! :D

I saw her on Campus at UCLA today for the premier of Mad Money...The woman was so huge I thought they were premiering Cloverfield. I'm almost 6 foot, she was wearing big heels and she was about an inch taller than me. I'd put her at a solid 5'10". She looked to be well over 200lbs.

In "Stranger Than Fiction" she doesn't dominate Emma Thompson like I thought she would and she looks appropriately shorter than Will Farrel (as she is wearing heels) for her to be @5'9"...Emma was depressive in the film and wore shorter heels than Latifah's business heels.

She's on the cover of the latest issue of People Style Watch. It listed her at 5'10. I also saw her (in heelS) on Conan and she was almost as tall as him. You should upgrade her height by at least a half inch.

in that picture she is only slightly taller than Glenn...and she was wearing heels....I would give her 5'8 1/2 to be kind........and the reason she appeared taller than both Travolta and Al Gore is because she had on extremely high heels and both men are really no more than 6'0 or 6'1

There's no way she's 5'8''. She looked insanely tall at Oscars this year. Taller than Al Gore and John Travolta. ~ 6'1'' in heels which is about 5'10'' barefoot. I doubt there are 5 inch heels that actually provide a 5 inch height boost.

I think in "Bringing down the house" they actaully describe her at 5'7 and 175lbs which I think is wrong on both accounts. I'm pretty shore it was 5'7 but I'll have to check to make sure. Anyway I think she weighs over 175, but whatever.

In a Chicago Sun Times article from 2000 it starts off with describing her: "At 5-feet-9 3/4 inches (and none-of-your-business pounds)". Maybe the interviewer got this height from Latifah.
