MD, that picture of Usher with Kanye West Stooping in conjunction with the pictures of Usher with football player Allen Rossum definitely points to the possibility that Usher may be barely 5'7", at best.

Yes Mr. Editor i do believe MD is right this guy should be brought down to at least 5'7 1/2. I also wanna bring up another topic "Kanye West". He is also another one of those guys given alot of credit. I really think he's short. What do u guys think?

usher has got to be under 5'7, because he took a pic with ciara (who is 5'7.5) and he was about an inch shorter than her.

Lookin at this pic again

I'm inclined to think Usher is about 172cm max.
Now, I know when I look straight forward.. My eyelevel is roughly 5'4" (I stand 5'8").
With Keion being 5'11" barefoot.. I'm betting his eyelevel is very close to 5'7" barefoot.. maybe even slightly lower since his forehead is massive. That doesn't leave much hope for Usher being anything above 5'8".

Doesn't 5074 = 5'7 4/8 = 5'7 1/2?

Deangelo Hall is a combine 5'10". He was listed at 5'11" when he attended va tech. Allen Rossum is officially listed at 5074. A little short of 5' 7 1/2".

It seems like he would be 4 inches taller then Cruise. I never doubted the 5-11 listing before because it seems like he has a long body and longer legs.

Wow, the picture with Holmes/Rossum reveals a lot. That picture reveals that Usher at his tallest would be JUST reaching the 5'8" mark. So he's now offically proven to be in the 5'7"- 5'8". Wow, I'm suprised to see how shrimpy the kid is.

I think i'm starting to beleive that Usher is a more hilarious Tom Cruise. From the pictures i am seeing I think both are around 5'7" but at least the tallest Tom ever claimed was 5'9". Usher 5'11" in whose dream!!!??? maybe standing on a stage! Their must be a word for people who say they are 4 inches taller than they really are... liars!

Rossum is at 5'7 1/2" officially while DeAngelo is 5'10 even. I would love to see that picture as well.

It's quite well known that in regular shoes Usher is around 5'8" (but no taller), and that he's probably 5'7" in barefeet, and possibly 5'9" in 'special' shoes.

Saw an interesting tidbit from British Singer Zena. "When I met him (Usher), it was a bit disappointing; I had my heels on and I was taller than him! I’m 5ft 8in, and the shoes would’ve made me 5ft 10in! I felt like a giant because he is pretty small! I was like “aww!”"

he would be in the 5'7 to 5'9 range. when he was dating naomi she would tower over him and she is like 5'9.5 - 5'10 (but then again she does wear heels.)

In a photo with baseball player Orlando Cabrera, which can be viewed at wireimage.com, Usher looks a good 5 inches shorter than Orlando Cabrera. The pecuiliar thing is Orland is listed anywhere from 5-9 to 5-10, making Usher 5-5.
Come on Rob give us some good info. 5-8 for Usher is way too tall.

Ah my my good buddy smokeblower is back! Great to see! If you have ever noticed, I tend to try to either my estimate on people who I have met, or give an estimate based on comparison to a celebrity that I have indeed met. Stiller has always been listed at 5'8", I agree with the editor that he is around 5'7".5", maybe 5'7" exactly, it is possible he is shorter but again, from what I have seen, and apparently the editor as well, it is hard to see him being under this. My friend also, yes there are many short people in Hollywood, but to lable it "the world of short people" isn't quite being fair to the many tell men and women there. Yes a lot of male and female celebrities lie about and exagerrate their heights, but there are many tall, and honest celebs out there as well. Also, 5'7" would not be borderline average height, I don't know exactly what average height is in the USA, but statistics have it as 177 cm (5'9".75") for men, and just about 5'4" for women. Ben Stiller is indeed short, not borderline average, but he still 5'7"-5'8". Usher Raymond is also indeed a guy on the shorter side of things, I'm not sure if this will prove your point smokeblower, but here's Usher with 6'1" (met him and he is just about this) Hayden Christiansen. He looks short next to Hayden, but I don't know if he looks 5'7".

Yeah 'cause Ben Stiller is totally shorter than 5'7". That's just so obvious.

Smoke, has it ever occurred to you that Stiller is not 5'7". 5'7" is boarderline average height. He looks short in Hollywood, a world of short people. Like I have been trying to tell you and everyone else on this board, you cannot accurately predict someone's height if the you do not know the height of the person you are comparing them to. There is no way ben stiller is 5'7". he is short around short people.

Got another picture of me and Usher at a club in Boston. I'm 5'5" and he is only slightly taller.

The most recent people magazine has a picture of Usher and his new, taller girlfriend who is listed at 6'1". The article says that he is 5'9" - which I think is generous considering his new woman towers over him in the picture. Check it out.

I finally find an article about Usher where a height is mentioned!
(http://www.teenmusic.com/d.asp?r=63617)
"``I cheat a lot'' _ on the stringent diet of fish, chicken, broccoli and other greens that keeps the 5-foot-9-inch, 169-pound R&B singer's famous abs looking so good."
Yeah, Usher does look to be struggling with the 5'9" although he does look around that mark.

Usher is definitely not 5'11". As he started to get big, he was on the soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful. Compared to some of the other characters, I figured him to be 5'8".
