I'm not surprised to see that she and her show is under fire. The word "smarmy" comes to mind.
Looks about 5'6"
I thought she seems alright but I never found her sense of humour and pranking the guests funny. I always found it a bit weird how she would act as if every big celeb guests was her close friend. Film and TV productions can be a super intense place, pressured to meet schedules and the stress of it all. I'm sure it's pretty common in productions for staff to be given a grilling and not treated well.

I can't think of a better pick-me-up programme right now than watching the Ellen show.
I caught the end of one of her shows last week and Ellen, who was hosting the show from her home, was bent up double with 'Average Andy' in the garden, laughing at the word UVULA! It was so funny, and I can relate to games like that, having played them myself.
β Our uvula is the little pink arrangement of cells shaped a bit like this: π§ It dangles from the back of our throats.
Fun-filled Ellen gets 5ft7 for her peak and 5ft6.25 for today's height.

Ah! This morning on the 'Ellen' show, there was a lady who had been crying her eyes out with joy because she'd met Ellen on her Halloween show. Her husband filmed the 'episode' and sent it in to Ellen, who played it on her show!
The lady was invited back and was almost equally emotional. She's pregnant and Ellen will be sending her loads of gifts when her baby arrives in May!
How nice is that? πππ
Peak - 5ft7
Now - 5ft6 - she keeps herself extremely fit!
Lawson said on 22/Mar/19
If she claims 5'7 1/2" why is Mark Walberg almost 4" taller than her side by side (Google them Rob). Either Marky Mark is really taller than 5'8" or Ellen is substantially shorter than 5'7.5"... Like i said in all pics of those 2 side by side at least a 3.5"-4" difference. What's going on who's lying Rob?
Editor Rob
well he can look
This short, but other times has looked 5 inches shorter. Maybe posture/positio and footwear helped him.
Have said on 27/Jan/19
I used to think Ellen was 5'4", but after having James Corden (who's 5'6.5"-5'7") on as a guess recently, she needs a downgrade. Probably more like 5'3". She is one tiny lady!
Sandy Cowell said on 26/Jan/19
πππ Happy Birthday Ellen!πππ
Have a very Happy Birthday today Ellen! You're one lady who does so much for so, so many, and everybody loves you, and for good reason too!
Five seven peak and five six now.
Sandy Cowell said on 2/Jan/19
I've just come from Cher's page to be able to report back that right at the end of Ellen's show, you could see the stunning 72 year old singer and actress in more casual wear - and her shoes seemed a little lower too. Cher and Ellen looked much the same height, unlike at the beginning when Cher wore positively high heels and looked considerably taller than her friend Ellen.
Ellen still dances around like a youngster and is another example of a super fit older woman, so I can't see much likelihood of a great deal of height loss for her either. My conclusion is a little different to last time's. 5ft6 and an eighth now and 5ft6 and seven eighths for her peak, but there are no facilities for putting eighths for her, so the song remains the same: 5ft6 now, 5ft7 then!

Ellen was 5'7" in her peak, but she is no more than 5'6" today. Good listing.
Dddenny said on 13/Dec/18
She looks close to the same height as Jack Black, maybe a bit shorter, but is weirdly only a bit taller than Kate McKinnon. I kind of think 5' 5" to 5' 6" might be closer to reality.
Paul Wood said on 1/Oct/18
I don't think she was ever 5ft 7in peak, maybe 5ft 6.75in at most. I think she's around 5ft 6in now. She listed as 5ft 7.5in on several sites which have probably just gone with her self-reported height.
Sandy Cowell said on 17/Sep/18
Ellen just showed us one of her 'cute cat videos' involving a white kitten hugging with a tabby one! A little blue-grey one pushed his way in so that he could snuggle up too! Altogether: arghhh!!!!
This morning, Ellen gets 5ft6 and 5ft7 for her peak height.
Yang said on 15/Sep/18
Accurate abd yet truthful height she said. Yeah, she was 5ft 7 back in her mid 30s and 40s yeah 5ft 6 as of now like others said. Yeah Ellen is definitely no way taller than Oprah... They look like similar height range not exactly same as I see pictures together. Oprah sometimes looks taller than Ellen may be because of oprahs upper shoe...
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 23/Aug/18
5'6 7/8 peak and 5'6 1/8 now. Not convince she lost a full inch yet.
Sandy Cowell said on 6/Aug/18
This morning I saw a repeat of one of Ellen's first shows of 2018. Apart from her regular slot of enjoyable cute animal videos, I had to cringe along with her at the title of a book she showed the audience, entitled, 'Alaska how it use to was'! Urgh! WTF is going on with the English language nowadays? It had a bird on the cover, and Ellen suggested the book might have been written by the feathery creature!
I go for 5ft7 for Ellen's peak height and 5ft6 for today's. She was saying that she's turning 60 at the end of the month, which means she's 60 and-a-half now, and still as super fit as a woman two thirds her age.

How many inches between Obama and peak Ellen Rob? Doesn't look quite 6 to me
Warren said on 1/Apr/18
Rob, don't u think Ellen actually is 165-166cm range? Miley and Selena who were wearing about 3 inches edged her out at least 3cm to me on The Ellen Show, which makes me thought she is NOT taller than 168 even her peak height. Peak height(170-171) was with her shoes on listed I'm pretty sure of that :)
Sandy Cowell said on 24/Feb/18
@ Soiefej - Hi! That's exactly what I used to think, but have you honestly ever seen her in heels? Everyone in Hollywood seems to wear them, except for her. She is an individual and doesn't bother about being a bit different!
She really is 5ft6, or a tiny fraction under. I have done loads of comparing because I found it hard to accept too!
soiefej said on 22/Feb/18
Honestly, she can't be more than 5'4". The way she stacks up against other celebs supports this.

RisingForce said on 3/Jun/17
It's possible I am underestimating Ellen a bit because I'm thinking too much of how a 5'7" woman will usually give a pretty tall appearance with long legs, but it is important to remember that Ellen's build height wise will really be more reminiscent of a man because of how she dresses and she never wears heels, so maybe that's why she's never looked tall to me. I'm not sure she's lost a ton of height or not, women do lose more than men and Ellen is 59, so possible, but are there examples of her looking significantly taller than she does now? I wouldn't be too surprised if she was 5'6.75" peak and now 5'6.25".
RisingForce said on 15/May/17
Funny she says she's 5'8" and looks 5'6" on TV, maybe seeing herself on TV will be a wake up call! I bet she really did get measured 5'7.5" at her peak, but in sneakers and simply rounded that up the other time with the "5-8 soaking wet", which I think is her saying a weak 5'8", which could imply a round up. Many just stand on the stadiometer when told and don't even think of taking off their sneakers if they're never asked so they hear the number and don't think any more of it. I wouldn't completely rule out a 5'6.75" peak + measurement in 0.7" sneakers, but I think the 1" sneakers is a safe bet.
Scarlett Rose said on 15/May/17
I agree with Frank2. Marilyn Monroe's height is over exaggerated. Shorter women like Monroe have curvier figures than tall women, unless the shorter woman has an eating disorder. Marilyn was said to have been 5 feet, 6 inches tall, but never wore heels shorter than four inches and Marilyn would pose with her toes pointed downwards to make her legs look longer. When Monroe was photographed without shoes, she always stood on tiptoe. DeGeneres is photographed with flatness. She doesn't have to try to look tall.

I just saw her in person standing right next to Chris Hardwick on the show, The Wall. Hardwick was wearing dress shoes and she was wearing her typical sneakers. He only looked like 1.5 - 2" taller than her. She looks like 5-7.5 to 5-8. No way is she 5-6.

This morning on the repeat of yesterday's Ellen offering, she had a great big bunch of youngsters on her show, ones that were eager to learn.

It is thanks to Ellen's fantastic show that I have been finding out all about many stars that I previously knew little about! When they are interviewed by Ms DeGeneres, they come over as her friends and all too often they are!
As Ellen never wears heels, she is an excellent measuring stick to boot!
Happy Birthday to Ellen for Thursday 26th. When I found out that hers is one day after mine, I was positively buzzing!
If I have any of her personality traits, it would make me very happy! πππ

Sandy Cowell said on 2/Nov/16
I am watching the show 'Ellen' at the moment. Her audience adores her and it's not in any way surprising as she is funny and very kind. I love the video clips she digs up and I enjoyed her 'cat week' recently.
I think Ellen looks a lot smaller than 5ft7, but then she does choose to wear comfortable shoes rather than high heels, and why shouldn't she if she feels right in them?
I have only been aware of her for a couple of years, but I've seen pictures of when she wasn't quite so slim and she does look better slimmer, which can't be said for everyone over 50, but on her, the slim look is ideal! She has bags of energy which must be a reflection of a healthy lifestyle.
She is just so full of fun and laughter and she cheers me up whenever I watch her show!
Editor Rob
I have only seen Ellen from clips, though she does seem to have a personable nature and seems a kind of host who puts guests at ease.
Addison said on 25/Oct/16
look at the recent photo of her and 5'8 niall horan, theres a significantly noticeable height difference between the two (since you listed niall as 1.72 rob, i guess that makes ellen 1.63 or 1.64). if ellen is 5'6-5'7 then niall is 5'8 or 5'8.5. so you should update your celeb height listing Rob!

I think 5'-6 1/2" is about right.
Ellen Degeneres and Portia de Rossi are about the same height.
Click Here
In this "Ellen" segment, she makes de Rossi take off her heels and stand side by side. It appears that Degeneres has a slight edge, but she has also failed to take off her own slippers, which appear to be giving her that edge.
Since de Rossi states her own height as 5'-6", and Ellen states her peak height as 5'-7 1/2", I will split the difference, and believe it reasonable to give them both 5'-6 1/2" today.
Box said on 22/Nov/15

Next to simon baker who is at least 176cm she looked 170cm. He had dress shoes on too. I doubt simon baker is 174cm. 5 foot 6 or shorter is a joke. She is taller than her wife who is 5 foot 6. She stands her ground against jamie foxx and other celebrities who wear lifts. 170cm.

I think Rob's listing is fair. She could be 169. She is rarely out of footwear that give her less than 1.5cms.

Like others have mentioned, also shorter than Jolie, Portia, etc.
I'd say 5'6'' (give or take .5'')
someone said on 22/Dec/11
no way. she was standing with 4" high boots but still has a same height with Rihanna who was wearing flat boots.
richinkle said on 20/Dec/11
She is about 1" shorter than Carol Burnett and 1 1/2" shorter than Angelina Jolie when each had a 2" heel advantage. I think Carol Burnett has probably shrunk an inch from her peak of 5'6 1/2", and Jolie is no taller than 5'-6".
I think Degeneres is 5'-6 1/2".

Degeneres looks 5'6ish in comparison. She's only wearing slippers however.

I think she could definitely be under 5'7. She looked it next to George Lopez.
Kostas said on 28/Aug/11
After reading the comments on here, I watched a clip of ellen with cameron diaz, and she looks only 2 cm shorter than cameron. Taking the into consideration the shoes she was wearing, she must be around 3-4 cm shorter. She doesn't look tall to me. 5'8 doesn't sound right for her.
Meg Gill said on 13/Aug/11
I got to meet ellen the other day and we were approx the same height! so id say 5'7.

On her show today, when guest Tyra Bank was on (BTW Tyra made it official and she is "Dropped" The Banks part of her name, Live on the Ellen Show Today, for anyone who cares) Ellen said she was 5'8. The crowd laughed though right after and Ellen said, "what?" I'd guess 5'8 then, only because Ellen has NO Reason to lie, she's Ellen DeGeneres. Honestly though I think Ellen probably doesn't care or really know and I bet she thinks she's 5'8 because so many celebrities up their height. I'd say 5'7.
Chameleon said on 12/May/11
Whatever the difference was, it was obvious therefor my comment about easily taller...... Diaz is about 171cm therefor Ellen is no way 170cm.
mcfan said on 10/May/11
I don't agree with the comment below. Ellen looked only a max of 1-1.25 inches shorter than Diaz. I'd say there was a 1/4 inch height advantage in Ellen's sneakers to her flats. I'd say Ellen is 5'6.5-5'6.75.
Chameleon said on 6/Mar/11
Cameron Diaz in flat shoes was easily taller then her!

Ellen DeGeneres could be 5'6.5 at the most..Check out this video of her & Portia -

Do a google search for "Pink Ellen" and see that 5'3" Pink is taller than Ellen DeGeneres.

I was watching ellen the other day and the guest star was 5'4" without her heels on (the measured her on the show) and when she first came on (heels and all) and ellen hugged her, she was a clear few inches taller so 5'7" to 5'7 1/2" sounds about right
J.J. said on 28/Nov/10
Rob 5'7" was a very fair estimate but I think she us 5'6.5" solid. 5'7.5" is way too much for her
Bradi said on 16/Nov/10
5'7'' is the top she could be. I don't see her higher than 170cm.
In fact, she seems shorter than 5'7'' compared to most actors on this website.

i just met ellen a couple weeks ago. and she was just as tall as me. she is definitely no shorter than 5'7'' AND wearing flat shoes too.
mcfan said on 12/May/08
Ellen always wears the type of sneakers with the smallest heels. Most sneakers will give you about half-inch to 1.4 inches and shoes will give you 3/4 inch to 1.5 inches. The type of sneakers she wears, converse all-stars, only give me a half-inch. It's fairly safe to say that you can add almost an inch to Ellen when comparing her to her guests because of her sneakers. She might give the appearance of 5'6 but this is due to her footwear.
sf said on 3/Apr/08
5'6".
On an episode of Roseanne, she plays a therapist and they show her standing next to 5'6" Jackie (supposedly 5'6"). Ellen was not taller, and was in sneakers. Jackie actually looks taller, and may have had an inch on her shoes. She did not have on high heels. I was actually surprised how short DeGeneres looked.
People keep saying, "why would she have a reason to lie?" The same reason we all lie. Why do you lie? Why do many, many people lie about their heights, among other things??? She's no different than you are.

5'6" for Ellen. She was 4" shorter than Storm Large who is 5'10". Storm was at least 4" shorter than Toby Rand (in similar sneakers) on RS Supernova who on his own my space had his height at 6'2". Oprah (5'6.5") was much taller than ellen in moderate heels. Ellen's sneakers give her at least an inch of height ( I have sneaks that give me 1.5") And the Heels Oprah had on at the most gave her 2". 5'6.5" for Ellen tops.

I just watched the Ellen DeGeneres show with Gwen as a guest wearing 6" heels. If Ellen is 5' 7" and Gwen is 5"6' (according to this site) then how could Ellen only be about an inch shorter wearing her normal tennis shoes when they stood next to each other? (Gwen's hair was up in the front but comparing their foreheads she was just about an inch taller than Ellen.) Who is shorter/taller than previously thought?
Bob said on 10/Mar/07
There's no way she is 5'7 ... i saw her on yesterday show and she's like shoulder level with some models ... if she is 5'7 that puts the models at at least 6'7 :) ... i'd give her max 5'5 including her shoes

Storm Large is more like 5'11 maybe even slightly under. There is a picture with Jack Black and she is only slightly taller and I swear Black is not over 5'5.
Anonymous said on 23/Dec/06
She must be 5'6. I saw Evangeline Lily (5'5) on the shoe and in heels Evangeline was at least an inch taller. Lily's shoes didn't seem to be a 4" heel which only gives slightly under 2 3/4" of height. Assuming Lily's shoes gave her 2.5 inches, that makes her 5'7.5" and Ellen 5'6.5" in shoes. Her sneakers seem to be the really low kind, so I'll say she is 5'6.
TJ said on 7/Dec/06
KT Tunstall is 5'2 and Ellen only look 2-3 inches taller than her on the show. Footwear looked similar. Not a chance that she is 5'7.
AKK said on 5/Dec/06
Hmm. Storm Large is supposed to be 6 feet tall, and she carries herself like a tall woman, but surprisingly enough, Ellen managed to hit eye to nose level. On the other hand, it seems Ellen was wearing thicker shoes than normal, while Storm was wearing rather flat shoes.

I believe you, DAffy. I met her too. If you had a picture to show it would be awesome. I get so annoyed that people think they can tell from pictures how tall people are. Like, I met Gwyneth Paltrow and then stood by her again last year at Austin City Limits and she is 5'7" but people just won't believe me. My friend, who works out with Gwyneth in NYC even says she's 5'6". I feel your annoyance.
Daffy said on 22/May/06
Just to quote Kats 'And eyewitnesses accounts bore me...they're often not accurate'...hmmm, whereas trying to tell from a picture - where nobody knows the height of the person their standing next to anyway...not THATS accurate! Ellen is 5"6ish...take my word or not! Have met her, spoken to her ABOUT it - stood next to her, had my picture taken with her...had my friends picture taken with her...My MEDICAL records show I am 5"6 and we stood, both in sneakers, and were IDENTICAL heights!

That's right Ellen's 5'6" max. But Duchovny is a bit taller than 6'. That or I'm shrinking!

5'8? She sure didn't look that height next to duchovny, and i doubt he's downgrading himself. Also Frank2 said on the Marilyn Monroe page that he made a mistake and said 5'7, he meant 5'6.
~Nate~ said on 24/Apr/06
Kats thats cute my or any one else's word don't have to be good enough for you. I've met Ellen a few of my friends who love Ellen have met her as well and my friends are tall girls at about 5'8-5'9, they've all said Ellen is at the least 5'7.5 but 5'6 your crazy dude, I think Ellen is anywhere from 5'7.5-5'8.5

Yeah, the Marilyan Monroe talk lost me. How do we really know she was 5'5.5 anyways?
And eyewitness accounts bore me... they're often not accurate. Sorry to doubt people's abilities in judging someone's height in person, but your word isn't good enough for me.
ice said on 1/Apr/06
Um... who said anything about Marilyn Monroe?
Frank2 said on 31/Mar/06
Ellen is about 5'7". I met Ellen when she hosted the Emmys so I know exactly how tall she is. And for those who still say Marilyn Monroe was nearly 5'6," try imagining how tall she looked back then compared to how tall Ellen looks today. If Marilyn was truly 5'5-1/2" she was only an inch and a half shorter than Ellen and with heels was taller than Ellen is in flats. And Ellen rarely, if ever, wears heels or she'd tower over many of her guests. Marilyn always wore high heels and was still shorter than 5'10" actors like Olivier and Clift. Sometimes I think logic is missing from many people today. I'm getting tired of posting photos of celebs like Marilyn standing next to not-so-tall actors who are still obviously taller and then hearing people use excuses that the actors are 6' or nearly that height. It's just insane!

I think she's a strong 5'6, maybe even a nice 5'6.5 at 169cm. But this listing is a little too high.
ice said on 31/Mar/06
I think she is a solid 5'6. That is my opinion. After comparing her to other celebs, something seems a little shorter about her. She doesn't really tower the way a legit 5'8 woman in hollywood does (Think Mariah Carey or Cameron Diaz). Her shoes may be low, but it doesn't account for some of the differences I have seen. Some may ask, "Why would she lie?" My answer, "Why wouldn't she? If you don't lie about your height in hollywood then you get shortchanged because everyone else lies."
Kats said on 27/Mar/06
Mr. R., your comment was basically pointless. Know why? Because people lie about their height! People lie about their height and give the same number over and over. Their word means nothing. Why are we believing celebrities just because they say a number? It's standard to exaggerate. It's rare for ones to tell the truth. That's just the way it is. Ellen, by no means is "short," but she's not as tall as she claims.
Mr. R said on 24/Mar/06
She stated this height the other day on her show.
Kats said on 24/Mar/06
I definitely agree with 5'5 1/2. I'm not downgrading her because she's in flat shoes and I'm used to most females in heels. Look at all the comparisons that make her shorter. It makes sense she is listed as 5'7 1/2 though. It's so standard to add those extra 2 inches (or so)...
Anonymous said on 7/Mar/06
Then why is she the exact same height as Dustin Hoffman (on her show - check out the gallery on her web page)?

5'5.5" after comparing her to Brittany Spear's and Tyra. And Tyra is 5'9" now that I have pinned Latifa at about 5'8" and Ellen was much shorter. I think going to 5'6" would be the most solid estimate.
mcfan said on 5/Mar/06
She cannot be 5'6 when she's, at the most, an inch shorter than Sharon Stone. My belief is Sharon Stone is 5'8.5 and Ellen is 5'7.5 or maybe even 5'7.75. Here's why she appears shorter than she is: It's her choice of sneakers. I own a pair of converse all-stars. The difference between me in them and not in them is only .75 -- not even an inch. I have other sneakers that give me 1.25 inches, but the ones Ellen wears give minimal extra height. So, if you're wearing normal shoes which give 1.25-1.5, you then have a .5-.75 height advantage over Ellen if you're a guest. I thought at first you can measure the outside of a shoe or sneaker to give you an idea of how much the extra height is, but your foot is typically lower by .25 once you stick it in the shoe.
heightfan said on 5/Mar/06
If ellen is really only 5'6", which I strongly dispute, that call for many downgrades. She never wears heels or shoes with big soles, and still looks most celebs in the eye.
Anonymous said on 26/Feb/06
Did anyone just see her show with Tyra on it/? It is perfect for comparison. They are both in total flats and Tyra is a very strong 5" tallewr than Ellen. I always thought she was taller but I think 5'506" is it for her.

I ran into Ellen at the vet's office. I'm 5'8" and she's at least 2-3 inches shorter--5'5" is the best bet--definitely no more than 5'6".

heightfan said on 20/Jan/06
Today on her show in her interview with Constance Marie, said she was 5'7" 1/2. I think this is right on as she has no reason to inflate her height. Lateley she has been wearing sneaks with a very thin sole which could account for someone such as Elijah appearing taller. I would suspect that he has "special" shoes. BTW Constance Marie stated that she was 5'4" 3/4 which seems about right as she was slightly taller than Ellen with 4 inch heels.

Ok I saw the episode on Ellen with Britney Spears because I watch her religiously. Ok Ellen was wearing plain sneakers flat ones, as Britney was wearing about 4 inch boots. Britney was a tad shorter then Ellen even with the boots. Sometimes they looked the same but when they stood next to eachother Britney was just a tad shorter then Ellen, so Ellen has to be 5'8.
