@Bland Gandy in a heartbeat. Tyson is a bit old now. O’pry is too pretty for real world girls. Gandy all day.
As for height? Tyson looks no more than 5’11 to me

He looks taller than 50 cent when they are standing side by side but I doubt 50 cent is the nearly 6'0 listed here.

@Rob yes maybe but Naomi is listed at 5'9 and average guess is 5'8.5 for her. If you compare them I see a flat 5'11 Tyson Beckford not 6'0

Rob but seeing alexander5'11.25 do you really think Tyson is just 2 cm under Roger Federer (185). I would not argue any mark over 182 for this guy. In the pic seems minimum 4 cm difference I agree

5'11.5 is better Rob. I never ever see him over this mark. He is adding 2 inches to his height. Saw hundred of photos and videos and never look over 181.5 cm. 5'11.5 is the absolute high and I still doubt. I'd go with 5'11.25

I can't see a gap any less than 1.5" though. Roger's dropping height more than you may think.

@Christian: I can agree Roger looks to be the taller one out of the two, but I don't see there being a whole 2" gap if he stood up straighter, maybe an inch. Tyson is leaning forward himself a little bit too. And @Andresito: Yes, camera angles can be deceptive at times due to the lens of the camera or tilt etc, or how close or far a person is and posture...BUT, it would be easy to tell and it wouldn't appear to look normal like the photos I posted. My pics below have good angles imo, so if Tyson is really getting a good 2" advantage over his "actual" height, then 1. ALL comparison shots for height estimations are useless if they can be THAT deceptive and not look to be misleading or distorted by any means or 2. Tyson has to be wearing at least a big 2" lift...which is certainly impossible, given his shoes visually and CLEARLY have nothing in them. They are flat. If your honestly telling me Beckford is a half inch shorter than 50 Cent, or even more given 50's footwear advantage, I can only laugh. The pics I posted of them are good for comparison, given none of them have a real camera advantage, and if any do, it's not Tyson but 50.

If Tyson's only 5'11" then 50 Cent's no taller than a weak 5'10" at best...and that's obviously impossible. 50 isn't below 5'11.5" imo...but to go with your analogy, Tyson would have to be a lift-wearer - which I'm certain he's most definitely not, given his shoes never looked bulgy or big, just always flat and casual.

Look at him next to weak 5'11 William Levy . Tyson is 5'11.25 tops. Look at him with Roger Federer (6'0.75 medical stadiometer height) 6'1 listed on ATP. Roger is 185 cm measured on live (6'0.75 was nearly 2 inches on Tyson Beckerford not even standing tall. Tyson is max 5'11.25

Beckford is no way below Rob's listing. I'd actually say he might be over it.
Here he's with 5'11.75" 50 Cent in 2014: Click Here Click Here Click Here He looks at least an inch taller, even with 50's footwear advantage!
Also, he looked at least 6' with looser posture, to even 6'1" in the second pic in these shots with 5'9" Sugar Ray Leonard: Click Here Click Here and on the left is 5'10.5" listed Nick Cannon...there's obviously a good inch gap, but here's another pic of Cannon and Beckford: Click Here Nick is leaning back which might be giving him a camera advantage, while Beckford is leaning forward, though you could argue Beckford has an advantage, which I can admit, given he's slightly closer to the camera.
Overall, I think this is the least Beckford can be, and I'd even argue a weak 6'1"...any words, Rob?

with Victor Cruz who is a measured 5ft 11 5/8ths it's hard to imagine Tyson is as tall as he claims to be.

Interesting to see the comments on Tyson Beckford's height, varying from 5'11-6'3?! That's a huge difference, I don't think I could get away with claiming 6'1 when I am in the 175 cm range. Anyhow, I think he is anywhere between the strong 5'11 to strong 6'0 category, depending on his foot ware and the fact that he slouches in a lot of pictures, I would say 6'0 is the perfect listing. Once again, spot on Rob!

I was curious myself because my daughter who is 1/4 inch shy of being 6 feet sent me a picture with Tyson at Will Smith's premiere last night and they were head to head. She was wearing her 1" flats, basically. So, I'd say he's 6'1".

Male models tend to be between 6ft0-6ft3. 6ft1-6ft2 being ideal. 5ft11 is kinda short but acceptable in the commercial division of modeling.
For Beckford I use to think he was 6ft0, but now I think he is definately lower and should be downgraded to 182cm/5ft11.5.

I really think that guy is 5'10-5'11 (177-180cm). And perfect height for menmodel is 5'11-6'2, also there are even 6'4 models

If he was 6-2 he would be MASSIVE and too big to model. I mean with those muscles on a 6-2 guy...marcus is around 6-4 but skinny. big difference.

I just looked at Nick's post...
Paris Hilton being 5'7ish.. and wearing heels that give another 2 inches.. she's standing at about 5'9ish. and Tyson Beckford has like 4-5 inches on her.
He really does look 6'2 beside her..

188cm impossible...david gandy is 188 and he looks so,tyson is 182cm for me...you have to know that the height of malemodels are often changed...so for example nir lavi claimed at 186cm is 182cm and this also for model too tall...if someone is from 190 to 195 is put down to 188cm (6.2) infact the standar height is in the 183-188 range..the perfect height is 187.

To Johan:
the fashion industry really has no set standard in terms of stats.
So being that you are 16 and still young is an advantage, and being 180 cm tall is not that bad in terms of being a model. Some male runway models are 5'10" and claim to be 1-2 inches taller. It all depends on your overall look: are you edgy? unique? a fresh face? are you slim? A slim build for a guy make you look taller which will help in film and runway.
So contact an agency and see how it goes :)

raj i would say that 6'3'' would be the absolute limit...after that, you're just too tall, but there are some exceptions.

actually raj most agencies put 5' 11'' or 180cm as a minimum height, not 6', but, like you said, some agencies do have a 6' minimum which doesn't mean that if you're 5'11'' you can't show for an open call!

Anonymous.....for the most part i tend to agree with you, but MOST male models heights are only off by an inch, not two.....agencies tend to not be as picky with men's height than women's

IMGmodl, if the model industry would use (hypothetically) the metric system (cm not inches) as a standard to measure models, wouldn´t it be more accepted the plain cut of a 180 cm guy and above? My brother is 182cm and he gets annoyed that all model agencies establish a 6 feet minimum...

IMGmodL, theres so many male models that are 5-11 and are listed as 6-1 is unbelivable. Tyson is only one of them. taking in2 account that 5-11 to 6-1 is not a big difference i dont see a major problem a few cm less or more. its about proportion.

Yes iris 182 cm is tall enough to be a model......although the "perfect" height is generally around 183cm - 188cm .......there are quite a few models that are only 5' 11'' (180cm - 182cm), plus, there are A TON of models listed as 183 cm that are actually probably 182 cm....

its about the size of the clothes. normally theres 2 sizes and in jackets is 48 and 50. so the models should fit on the clothes and not the clothes on the models. of course theres always some fixings.

it's not too rare for their to be a 5'11" male model. Usually the shorter male models are the skinnier ones. For me, at 5'11" i pretty much have to maintain a weight of around 145 in order to look "taller". Its more common to see shorter, skinnier male models on runway for an "edgier" designer. Designers like Lacoste and Ralph Lauren tend to have taller and more muscular male models on the runway. For me, being shorter, most pictures i have to take have to be more "punk" i guess, a 6'2" model is more of the "All-American" type.

Well my original point was along the lines of... if you've got the goods, that's all that matters. In Pete's own words, Beckford is the best model in the world. In other words, to be the best model, you obviously don't need to be tall. As Pete said, 5'11" is considered short for a model. Kate Moss is only 5'4"

Chris, I agree with you that height isn't that big of a deal in sports, as there are many amazing athletes that are short. I'm 6'1 and was all-league in basketball during high school and my college buddy who's maybe 5'6 or 5'7 consistantly beats me in one-on-one games. However, while height isn't always a huge factor in sports, it is in modeling. My buddy that models for Ford is still above average at 5'11. He told me he worked with a 5'10 guy during his first shot and hasn't worked with anyone shorter than him since. I don't know about runway, but when you go to a shot for clothing, there's usually only one size with a variety of styles. So modeling agencies do tend to look for guys between 6-6'2 with a few exceptions. He did tell me that there's a 6'5 model in his late 40's at Ford.

Sport is sport. Short guys can often beat tall guys. In many types of modelling though, a tall height is preferred. Here, you're either tall or you're not ... your physical prowess is irrelevant. To be a male runway model for example, they want guys who are minimum 6'0''-not much over 6'1'' -- taller than the girls, but not by very much. Whether or not it's right or wrong to be like that, it's just how the industry is.

Mojo says 5'11" isn't that rare a height for a male model. Plus my point being Pele is considered one of, if not the greatest athlete ever to play Soccer...people equate height with physical ability...not so. Pele used to out-jump guys 6'2". If height isn't more important for physical sport why the hell would it be for modelling? Over to you.

I'm not a model, but my buddy just got signed with Ford Models in Beverly Hills. All of our friends always said he should go down there and give it a shot, since he gets job offers everything he walks into an abercrombie store. Anyhow, he always said he's probably too short. He stands exactly 5'11" and Ford states on their website that males should be 6-6'2. Anyhow, he went down to Ford and was signed after a few "test shots" or whatever. They list him at 6'0 on their website and he even said that he was measured at 5'11 when Ford took body measurements of his. So I agree w/ IMGmodl, 5'11 isn't that rare of a height for a male model. In fact, my buddy actually said that during his first photo shoot for Finishline, he was paired up with a model 1 inch shorter than him from Ford. My guess is that if your good looking enough, they can make a few inches work.

The tallest male model that i know of is 191cm (6'3"), and is listed at 191cm. Although i'm sure its possible, (there are always exceptions!)6'4" it really quite tall to be a male model. As far as i know, most modeling agencies think that the "perfect" model height is 6'0-6'2" for males and 5'9"-5'11" for females, but as we all know, there are always exceptions which usually range from 5'11"-6'3" for males and 5'8"-6'0 to women, 6'4" is pushing it!

Tyson Beckford was once on a "Queer Eye" episode in which some guy wanted to be a model. When the guy was measured approx. at an agency he was said to be "6'2 or 6'3". The guy replied "yea" (not really saying how tall he actually was, but lets just say 6'2.5")Tyson was NO WHERE NEAR as tall as he was, at LEAST two inches if not 3 or 4 inches shorter than him. I would say Tyson is 5'11.5. BY the way Issheuhboy, male models are usually 5'11 - 6' 2, i'm just barely 180 cm, but in my portfolio and on my comp card i'm listed as 183cm or 6'0

supermodel Marcus Schenkenberg is around 6-3 and his stats say 6-2...same as tyson beckfords!

I saw the 50 Cent video that Tyson's in last night. You cannot tell how tall he is relative to 50 from the video. Every scene they were in next to each other 50 was not standing up straight. It did appear to be close but in all of these scenes Tyson was slightly taller (this could be due to posture). 6'0" would be possible. I could buy 5'11 MAYBE but I think that's even pushing it. He does appear to be about 6'1"
The 5'8" claims are riddiculous. I used to be a personal trainer, and still do work out with pro body builders. I'm 5'6 and I weigh between 165-170 lbs. At 170 I definitely look bigger than Tyson (proportionally speaking). 190-195 lbs on a 5'8" frame would be SIGNIFICANTLY larger than Tyson is. That would be approaching bodybuilder size. One of the guys I work out with (not a body builder) is 5'7.5" 195 and he is much bigger than Tyson. Tyson is cut (has a lot of definition), but he's NOT that big.

Im as skeptical as any, but that 5-8 claim has got to be BS. Show me a pic where he looks 5-8. I sure dont see any. I mean, 5-8 would be waaay to short to be a male model anyway. The dude looks 5-11 at his shortest.

I have a very reliable source that he is only 5'8". One of my good friends is very well connected and met him. She does a lot of modeling herself and said it is the norm to lie about things like that. Think about it...their careers are based ENTIRELY on their looks...lying about height is small potatoes.

She does a lot of modeling herself and said it is the norm to lie about things like that. Think about it...their careers are based ENTIRELY on their looks...lying about height is small potatoes.
Editor Rob while his 6ft 2 listing was dodgy, 5ft 8 is erm, taking it too far? Now he may be shorter than 185 though

Sheesh, I saw that as well. Im starting to think Tyson is no more then 5-11. 6-2 Marcus Shekenburg is a good deal taller then him as well.

I remember a few years ago Tyson was at a club outing being promoted by a local radio station. All of the ladies that called in after the party said they were shocked and hardly even recognized the "short guy in the white Polo shirt". He is about 5'8' - 5'9" according to the radio hosts.

Thank you for the couchscout.com site, smokeblower! I've been looking for a site like that for awhile. And there's some good photos of Tyson next to his new 'girlfriend' Foxy Brown. He looks good and well under 6 feet in those photos.

Tyson Beckford is far from 6'1". I question whether he is 5'11" There is a picture of him standing next to 3rd string NY Giants RB Derrick Ward where Tyson is barely as tall as him or marginally shorter. Derrick Ward is a combine 5'10". You can confirm this height at www.couchscout.com, which is more reliable than ourlads.

190 pounds at 6-2 wouldnt be to far off for him. Im around the same size as him at 6-2 and Im around 180. Remember hes pretty lean but muscular.

I believe a good indication that Tyson is lying is his listed weight. He list his weight at 190lbs. If he infact is 6'2" than a 190lbs would be way to light for a person of his build at 6'2". I believe 5'10" -5'11" is just about right if in fact he really is 190lbs.
Secondly, if you have ever seen him do runway, which is very infrequently, he is substantially shorter than a good majority of the other male models.
Finally their are pics of him standing next to the female model Oluch where he is a good 5 or 6 inches shorter than her. Granted she has on heels, she appears to be the same height as Micheal Clarke Duncan, for he is also in the photo along with Oluchi and Tyson.

Well, I don't wanna be the kinda guy to just dispute another's post but
1) "Arnold" is not massive - not vertically anyway. He's 5'11/6'0 with a good knowledge of big shoes
2. 6'2 is not "too big" to be a fashion model - we did a good thread about this on Matt LeBlanc - most male models are 6'0-6'3 - 6'2 would be just right to be a male model
Now the Thin White Duke is 5'10:

Tyson looks 6'0ish, if they'd both straighten up
I don't think he's 6'1 - I'd say 5'11/6'0

Naomi Campbell in most places is listed as being 5'10", I do think she looks it. J., all I can say is, if Clifton Collins is really 5'8" then Tyson is really closer to 180 cm than anything else. If your heights for Campbell and Collins are correct then Tyson Beckford is really 5'11". All I can say is he definately doesn't look 6'1".

it really interesting to know is Tyson 6'0" or what cause not much time ago I've seen the program about luxury cars which has been led by Nick Cannon and Christina Milian and there the interesting moment has been when Nick has entered into the show-room of the cars.He has met Tyson there and from the moments of being together which have been showed by TV it has been seen that Tyson is higher than Nick (I don't know for how much cause it hasn't lasted for a long time and has been in dynamic).But obviously Tyson is higher than Nick.

Yeah, Beckford is like Tyrese, he's struggling with 6 feet. There's some pictures of him next to Naomi Campbell (listed as everything from 5'7" to 6'0") at the first annual Vibe Awards. Naomi has on standard heels and is a little taller than him.
