I was his waitress at one of his nightclub performances years ago. I don’t know how tall he is exactly…but I can say he is definitely not 5’8” like some are saying here. He was visibly short in person that night with whatever shoes he had on, and I’m only 5’5”.

Idk man my friend is like 6’3 maybe 6’4 and he just posted a picture of him and nelly standing next to each other and Nelly looked taller than 5’8 in that picture. You can’t see their footwear in the pic but still. I’d say at least 5’9.

He's not standing completely ram-rod straight in that mugshot, yes. But it's not a huge slouch (would probably get up to the 5'9" marking solidly), and we don't know the footwear. I imagine he's in his typical boots, but there is no way of knowing unless we have pictures from the night of the concert.

He's 42 years old, so I don't quite understand his quote...I guess he's trying to say he grew late?? When was the interview from? I mean, everyone who is 5'9" used to be 5'7".....

So, here he is in his most recent mugshot from the other day. It shows him at about 5'9" in footwear, but we can't tell if he's in normal shoes or his boots. It's likely it's the later, but there's no way to tell:

Add it to the pile. I still think there is enough evidence to show him a bit under 5'8" barefoot, though. If he's in his boots in that mugshot, he's certainly below the current listing.

Editor Rob it's hard to tell how much off a measured height he might be standing. I certainly wouldn't have thought he was standing as tall as he might.

I think he's definitely 5'8" barefoot. Stood right next to him and talked with him for about 20 minutes at Rams Park in 2012. I definitely wouldnt peg him any shorter than that.

his mugshot reminds me of ja rules mugshot having him listed at 5"10, i was looking threw google images of "nelly and joe jonas" whos 5"7 and in some pics nellys half to 1 whole inch taller, except for one nellys wearing converse he stands slightly shorter, joe jonas foot wear dont change much so id say nellys probably just slightly above 5"6 and a half, now that i think about it i think ja and nelly are around the same height along with usher but idk my personal opinion.

Yeah, this would really help if we could see footwear. He could be in tennis shoes or boots. Provided the evidence I gave, I'd say the latter, but who knows?

Can you take another look at this? Here he is with 5'10" Akon, and it looks like Akon may even be at an angle disadvantage in this photo:

Not only is this more than a 1.5" difference, but it's more than a 2" difference. The others are right; Nelly is much closer to 5'7" than he is to 5'9".

Big fan of Nelly. Nelly is somewhere around 5'6-5'7. Most likely 175 pounds since he works out. We are about the same. Muscle weighs more than fat. So if it looks like he is lighter It's Just What the average person would assume. A person 5'7 weighing 160 with majority of fat would appear heavier than Nelly.

ludacris is never taller than nelly just as neither of them are over 5'7. I was always baffled by some rappers like nelly who one minute look short then appear taller at awards show. did anyone see the BET awards Nelly looked taller than Jaime fox and ive seen them in pictures before and nelly looks noticeably shorter. Or how Kendrick lamar magically drops in T.Is interview just to make him look taller. I love all of them and honestly could care less about there height but some of the things ppl say on here as far as guessing celebrity heights is just way off. Anybody who wants to be in show business is an egotistical maniac so feeljng inferior in anyway causes them mental syndrome. We should take ludas advice and have one more drink (figuratively).

I think honestly the guys like 5.6 1/2 and im a girl 5.7 1/2 and he never looks taller than me. maybe the same height sometimes but never taller. Even so he is sexy as hell, I honestly find (some) short guys attractive like Reggie Bush, and Luda. I would rather be with a man i feel right with than look right with per say. He's definetely not 6 ft and if he is he must've had height surgery since i last seen him.

I think Nelly could actually be as low as 5'7.5" because earlier today he was on Extra and was standing next to 5'9" Mario Lopez who had atleast 1.5" inches on Nelly.

On Leno, he stood side by side with Tom Felton (also listed 5'8.5") but was about an inch shorter. If you watch the clip I.K refers to, there's definitely like 3-3.5 inches between Nelly & Leno.

Go onto youtube and type ' Nelly - "Just A Dream" 11/16 Leno ' Go to the end of the Video.. and you can see the footwear of leno and nelly and Nelly looks 5ft7 - 5ft 8 there and Leno being put as 5ft11 and arguebly 5ft10..

Here's a pic of Nelly, Ludacris and Snoop Dogg together.

The strange thing is that 5'7.75 Ludacris is dwarfing Nelly with what looks to me as 1 whole inch. And lets not mention 6'4 snoop dwarfing both of them, even when he's standing much further back from the camera.
Nelly is listed as 5'8.5 here. So that means that he's 0,75 inches taller than Ludacris. Is there a possibility that Ludacris is using Timbs or Air force ones to gain 1,75 inches? But that would mean that Nelly is barefoot for Luda to dwarf him with 1 inch, wtf?
I think that you have to downgrade Nelly, he's looking much shorter than the 5'8,5 given to him.

Nelly is listed as 5'8.5 here. So that means that he's 0,75 inches taller than Ludacris. Is there a possibility that Ludacris is using Timbs or Air force ones to gain 1,75 inches? But that would mean that Nelly is barefoot for Luda to dwarf him with 1 inch, wtf?
I think that you have to downgrade Nelly, he's looking much shorter than the 5'8,5 given to him.

Rob, I think nelly is 5ft7.5 flat.. He always seems to be around that height when he is with people that are 5ft8 and he wears shoes with thick soles.

I think people always say he looks about 5'7" is , because of his build. It's really large. Just like slim people usually look taller, people with large build's almost always look shorter than they are.

He performed a hip hop performance honoring LL Cool J. Busta Rhymes told Nelly that he thought he was LL when he first appeared on stage. Nelly told him, "LL Cool J is over 6 feet and I'm only 5'9" ". Those were the words that came out of Nelly's mouth on National TV. Obviously people have met him and determined that's not true. Why does he continue to lie about his height? Is it really that big of a deal?

Guys like Nelly wear the thickest sneakers/boots all the time. For instance Nike Air Force 1 Mids have thick heels. I usually wear Nike Tennis Classic or similar low cut retro sneakers. Last weekend I tried Nike Air Force 1 Mids. While wearing them I looked easily 5'9'' eventhough I am 5'8''. + U can easily add one inch insole.

Nelly is No WHERE NEAR 5'10, sorry. Whoever claims to be 5'8 or 5'9 or 5'10 and alleges that Nelly is taller than them either has not seen him standing, up close, or is themself, lying about their own height. Everybody who has seen or who knows Nelly knows he is not a tall guy. If he truly is 5'9 (which is not that tall for a guy anyway) it's with timbs on! (and that still may be pushing it) But I would guess that he looks more like 5'7 1/2-5'8

Well done, J. I think of that quote from Nelly as one of the standard lie forms. "I'm not very big, 5'9", 175lbs..." Tell people you're about to be candid about your size and then lie that you're under your publicized height but a few inches over your actual height. When I first saw stuff like that it worked on me. Now it's like a lie-alarm. 'People think I'm a big guy but I'm only 5'11", which isn't that tall...' I think every celebrity is instructed to say something like this. A collection of those would be funny.

Just saw tonight show with leno, russell crowe was also on the show, after nelly's performance, handshakes all around. Crowe looked at least an inch shorter than leno, but crowe was at least 2 inches taller than nelly. since leno is probably the most accurately listed among the 3, at 5'11, that puts crowe at 5.9-10, and nelly at 5.7-8. This show is july 1st/2nd.

Good point Mr. R, the NFL is USUALLY great with listing actual heights. Only on the shortest of players do the listed heights differ up to an inch.

Nelly is one of the stars of The Longest Yard, opening next weekend. Maybe we can figure out him, Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, Burt Reynolds , and others. Michael Irvin was definitely 6-2 during his playing days with the Dallas Cowboys. Maybe we can use him as our standard of measurement. But beware the camera angles, and the shoes!

On Wire Image, there's a recent thumb of photos of Nelly standing next to Russell Simmons and his wife Kimora Lee. In the photos next to Russell, Nelly is noticably a couple inches shorter. Russell gets listed as 5'8" much of the time yet I peg him at 5'10". So, either way, Nelly is either way, is smaller than 5'9".

Either Nelly is really 5'9'' or there is something dodgy about his shoes. Sometimes he really looks almost as tall as PDiddy or what ever U wanna call him and sometimes he looks 2 inches shorter. Also when he is playing football he doesn't look 5'9''(kinda hard to fit lifts inside football shoes), but when he is playing basketball he appears at least 1 inch taller = )

Rob, Rob, Rob ... I told you, man, I saw the guy up front and he was 5'7"- 5'8". Nothing more, nothing less.

Okay, I'm here checking out some photos from this Grammys ceremony ... alright, even though I've seen Nelly up front and I'm certain he was in the 5'7"- 5'8" range, in some of the photos on Getty Images, he's looking 5'9"+, taller than I remember him to be. So, I'm like, "Maybe I underestimated him" BUT ... then I see an intresting photo, of that Sandler moment referenced below and Nelly's a clear 1- 1.5 inch shorter. So, Nelly's 5'8" and a half then? I think that may be more accurate than 5'9". I'm telling you, he was much smaller than I would have imagined back when I saw him nearly three years ...
