I think Jenny needs to be put in the Glamour Models category. She was Playboy playmate after all.

Hey rob!! Due to her slender frame she always seemed to me a proper 5'6 women. However, at her radio show where she is standing with other celebrities even 5'5 looks real possibility. Just look how she was literally towered by erika jayne and liz hurley and was barely 1 inch taller than jennifer love hewitt.

I noticed you slightly downgraded her Rob to 5 ft 5 and 3/4. Funny how she's sometimes listed at 5 ft 7. And many girls do seem to upgrade their height 1 to 2 inches, it's not uncommon in real life. And so let me ask you this. Girls often will say their guy has to be a certain minimum height. But if they aren't even sure of their own height do you think there's a chance that even their significant others are shorter than they realize? For instance a girl says she will only date a guy who's 5 ft 10, but maybe he's only 5 ft 8.5 and she doesn't know. Wonder if she'd break up with the guys she knew weren't even meeting her cut off.

I watched Donnie Loves Jenny on A&E, and I really think Donnie must wear good thick shoes a lot of the time. In a few episodes she has on her heels, and isn't much smaller than Donnie. But then in a recent episode of Donnie's show Wahlburgers, She has on her big heels, and looks a good 3-4 inches shorter.

Rob, we may have to consider Jenny at 5 ft 5.5. Unless Donnie is always wearing good, thick shoes.
Take a look here at NYE for 2017, where Jenny usually wears big heels.

She has decent boots, maybe gives her 4.5-5 inches? And he always seems to edge her out.

In just shoot me, she was same height as david spade who is 5 foot 5 in heels. In two and a half men she looks 5 foot 6. I always thought she was 5 foot 6.

Obviously, she must dislike being tall or labeled as being tall. I just saw her in a movie and she looks more like 5 foot 10 and she downgrades herself to being 5 foot 6 or 7 and uses slouch helper tactics to reduce height. I have a cousin who's the same way. She's 5'11" standing up perfectly straight but she likes to say she's 5 foot 7 and slouches purposefully.
Lol, you just made my day sir. Se is not taller than 5´6", I would say she needs a downgrade. 5´5.5"

Rob why don't you downgrade her height?? Because according to the photo posted by samwise she can't be over 166 cm. Actually I think 5'5 is right for her. How tall do you think she really is?

Saw countless pics of her around other actors etc, she seems to be 5"5 barefoot, maybe an inch less (so she is between 162.5cm-165cm tall).

Yeah. Samwise is right and the link he/she posted proves it! She is exactly 5 foot 7 inches with her shoes on. She is leaning so maybe 5'8" minus the heels 3 --> about 5'5" or 165 cm. min 163 max 166 cm.

Yeah those are probably Hollywood inches. She already got caught lying about her age, so she probably is just 5'4" or 5'5" tall.

I met her earlier this week. I'm 5'9 and was definitely way taller than her. There's NO WAY she's 5'7!!

Possible she's 5'6.5. A lot of the time when someone says 2 different heights they lie in the middle.

i just watched scream 3 recently, and i was surprised at how tall jenny actually is. always thought she was small, i guess b/c she's very thin and petite. but she is clearly at least 5'6, possibly 5'7.

I remember her entrance in Singled Out! Carmen Electra was a good 10 cm shorter! Jenny McCarthy looked really tall when she picked up Carmen Electra en carries her on her shoulder. Jenny must be strong too! Does anyone have that pic?

I remember watching "Singled Out". They must have had the tallest contestants in the history of game shows because Jenny always looked tiny and was never as tall as any contestant.

she looked about 5'6.5 when she was on Charmed (series 6 The Power of Three Blondes) she was a good 4 inches taller than Alyssa Milano I noticed- she didn't really tower over the Charmed girls(known for being petite) but was quite a bit taller!

She was taller than David Spade in "Just Shoot Me." Maybe an inch or 1.5 inches. I took in account her heels.

She looked shorter than Pamela Anderson in an "on the set" documentary of Scary Movie 3, which was a bit surprising, since many are downgrading Pammy to 5'5" nowadays. She said 5'6", when she hosted the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards. Her Playboy Playmate data sheet says 5'7".
