It was around 1984 when Frank did an album with Quincy Jones. Jackson visited the studio. I saw it in a book. I suppose it's not out of the question Frank has lifts, but Frank surely wasn't more than 5'9 in them, and for Jacko to look shorter is something.

A bit hard to gauge with Michaels' hair. Frank's eyes and shoulders are over Michael's.

I am almost certain that Michael is 5'11 for serveral reasonss. Now due to age, stress and his health, he may not be exactly 5'11 anymore but at his prime he was 5'11. His sister Latoya stated that and if you look at Mike in pics with his Nephews 3T he is the smae height as Taryll who is also 5'11. Plus Michael is the third tallest brother out of the Jacksons. Jackie and Jermaine are obviously over 6ft tall maybe being at 6'1-6'2 Marlon, Tito and Randy are all probably in the 5'8-5'9 range and Michael towers the three of them so there is no way Michael is 5'9 unless his body has deteriorated.

towards the end of the song Usher comes on and there are some very good comparison shots; if anything Usher is taller than Michael....very strange.
And isn't Usher something like 5'8 at the very maximum?
Lifts perhaps? But would they be even possible with all those intricate dance moves he's pulling off?

He is 5'10" and like 120 lbs maybe less now--he slouches a lot and it makes him seem shorter 5'10" because Oprah is only 5'6'' and Naomi Campbell is 5'9.5" actually they appear the same height because he is slouching...he was perhaps 5'9" back in the 70s

5' 9" or 5' 10" depends on his posture. He can stand lean & mean and get the height or just drop his body down a bit. Hard to tell.

he's as average as one can get - maybe 5'10 in his 20s (all that dancing is stressful on the spine). Anyway in 2001 in his tribute concert and danced w/ Usher, they looked exactly same in height maybe a little more for MJ

MJ is 5'10 and a half at least. 5'11 is credible enough. How can you question a police recorded height?

I just can't believe he's only 5'7". I personnally think he's 5'10" though I consider it possible he's a bit shorter nowadays, but surely not under 5'9". He has often bad postures, possibly due to health problems at his back, making him look a bit shorter than he really is...

i agree with the 5'7. i saw him outside the courthouse where he was tried and my friends and i were all shocked at how tiny he looked........i'm just surprised that the article was from the 80s, i thought he slumped down a little since then and was taller back in the day. he does sometimes wear ridiculously high heels which probably contributes to his "tall" reputation.

Yes MarkyMark, that's true: Michael and Usher seem to be the same height on this photo. But once again, the posture of Michael doesn't seem very good, he's slouching a bit, his head downward. If he stood straight, Michael could be a bit taller.

If you want to hear something funny, The Book of People in 1981, lists him as 6'2" and 140 lbs! I doubt he weighted that much even back then. I think he is around 5'9" because sometimes he really does not look like he could be close to 5'10" or 5'11".

Hi, Naomi Campbell's height is 5 ft 9.5. In the video clip "in the closet", Michael wears small heels and Naomi doesn"t have shoes and it seems they have the same height (but there's never a perfect view to compare). I think he's shorter thant 5ft9, it would be more realistic to say 5ft8 or 5ft7.5. Moreover Michael seems to be a little bit shorter than Usher Raymond who is 5ft 8 !

The fact that he claimed to be 5'10" (178cm) in his autobiography, plus the fact that the police report put him at 5'11" (180cm) maybe with high heeled shoes are enough to convince me, definitely, that Michael is really 5'10" (178cm) when he stands straight. No way he's only 5'9" (175cm). Some people may have this impression, but it's because sometimes he's slouching.

Michael had boots with *huge* heels at the WMA (as seen in the link below posted by Editor Rob). He was insanely thin at the event. I think he suffers from anorexia or the like. A pity really, if he were not quite so thin, he would probably look quite beautiful.

Seems like Jacko has indeed developed a height complex....when he performed at the World Music Awards in London a few weeks ago, it had in the Daily Mirror a photo of a marker on a wall backstage stating that no one above the height of the marker o be on stage with Michael Jackson....He has seemed a lot taller recently, I think he must be in a lot better shape than when he had his court case, he seemed to look around 5'9 then, looking around 5'11 at the world music awards.

He claimed to be 5'10" in his autobiography, so I think that was correct at that time. I don't think he used to have any problem whatsoever with his height, he was usually in completely flat shoes, and still he towered over lots of people. I can't imagine why he'd bother lying about it. It seems to be a recent change with him, that he tries to be taller, maybe because he lost height. It could also be because the next generation is taller. I was a 6' girl at 15 myself, I towered over every other girl I knew, except one. Nowadays, 15 years later, I frequently run into women who are taller than me. Now with Michael at almost 50.. There is bound to be a difference in the expected height of a man?

Michael Jackson really looks tall, but that's true that he is very thin, making him taller than he really is. But for me, he's taller than 1m75. 1m78 seems a good estimation to me. The height (1m80) from the police report is a good proof that he's surely a little bit over 1m75. So I'm OK for 1m78!

What's with Michael's recent choices of footwear? If you see him in this clip on yourtube walking on a treadmill his height is enhanced by at least 4". Click Here But I do not think that is the main point of the shoes, do they indicate a foot problem? They look like they are sculpted specifically to help with problematic feet of sorts? He also had similar shoes in the infamous Bashir documentary, it was very visible compared to the reporters normal footwear. Michael's looked as though they had lifts or something, but that is odd considering he was teaching the reporter to moonwalk in them. :)

Stevie's latest was dead out of gate. Radio avoided it cause it meandered aimlessly in a style that was stuck in a ditch in 1989. He needs a Prince to punch his sound up. Put on "Innervisions" and you'll see cutting edge.

I agree Viper652. "Bad" was pretty much a spotty re-do of "Thriller". He actually though that "Bad" would outsell "Thriller", hence why he reused the formula of that album. That was sign that he was becoming delusional, because NOBODY has a phenomeon of that nature happen to them multiple times. Nobody. The last Stevie album, Time 2 Love, was merely decent (by Stevie standards). But then again, if any younger R&B artist were to release that album, it would be considered the album of their career! I personally think that 1985's In Square Circle, is a classic although most persume his '80s work to be much lesser than that of his '70s wonder years. Lionel's album was weak because he used a bunch of of-the-moment producers. The album was an attempt by Lionel's record company in the US to get him back into the good graces of the US mainstream R&B/pop market.

I haven't gotten the new Stevie cd yet, or Lionel's. I've heard clips from Stevie's new album, doesn't sound too bad, but not as good as what he used to be. I mean, every single 1970s' album from him is a masterpiece. I think when you're an artist of Stevie's prestige, almost anything from him that isn't incredibly groundbreaking the way "Innervisions" and "Songs In The Key Of Life" were, naturally it won't be seen as very good. Just my opinion.
I don't like Lionel's new work at all.

Michael's like Stevie Wonder in that nothing he has released is awful but much of it does miss the mark. Also like Stevie, he has a penchant for mush. The first half of his Dangerous album is pretty much his strongest work since Thriller.

can someone please tell me then why the hell the police have him listed as 5 11. Do you really think they would try to protect the secret of Mike's height, if they're trying to book him as a child molestor?

The 6-0-6-1 claims for Mike are pretty out there. Hes officially listed at 5-10. He looks close to this height or shorter in most pics. Id say 5-9 Max.

no offense dumbdude, but your name really suits you.....Jacko is 5'8=FIVE FOOT EIGHT-not at tad more.
Glenn has stated it and also remarked how his father is only 5'6"-now look at photos from the trial of the two walking together, in many instances Michael looks barely taller.
And about Michael being "close to" Howard Stern's height(6'5")-good one I needed a good laugh!
Michael never was and will never be anywheres near 6 foot.

If you look at that pic with Jacko and Paul, you see that once again, Mike is slouched, and Mcartney is at a higher incline, yet Micheal still looks about an inch taller!! I may have overestimated Paul Mcartney's height. Paul is probably between 5 10 and 5 11ish. This would still put Jacko at at least 6 ft.

Yep its true. I'd say he's wearing flats in this pick. And his bodyguard looks to be at least 6 3, 6 4 ish. I'd put Mike at a strong 6 1 in his prime, he's probably shrunk a bit due to poor nutrition and bad posture, but as you can see from the pick below, he's at least 6 feet.

Michael is about 6 feet tall. Maybe a bit over. I remember an episode of Howard Stern where Howard had stated that he met Michael and couldn't believe how tall he was. He said something about Michael being close to his height. I also saw another picture of him back when he was married to Lisa Marie, and he towered over her, even while being slumped over. Mike's always had that Peter Pan complex. So he tries to make himself look smaller and more boyish. Every pictures he's in he's always slumping down, and he surrounds himself by big huge over 6 foot 6 bodyguards to make himself look smaller. So anyway, Jacko definitely a tall guy, he's got the inverse height complex thing going. But what else could you expect from Jacko..

Jackson's height is a tricky one. Could it be possible that he grew in his early twenties? I have seen some old pictures of adult Michael with his father and his father was taller, then about a year ago during his court appearance where Michael came straight from the hospital and he was wearing hospital pants and sandals, and he was taller than his father. You can't have lifts in sandals. so I don't know. I try to find some pictures.

5'8" for MJ is complete BS. Why he the heck would he be listed as 5'11" on an arrest sheet if he were 3 whole inches shorter? Plus, there would be press referring to him as 'slight' and 'small'. I can see someone downgrading him to 5'9" for bad posture but 5'8" is a little low. He's clearly 5'10". Whether you like him or not. Case closed.

I just saw a clip of Michael Jackson's bad tour where he's performing with his then back-up singer Sheryl Crow, and he's taller than her, anh she's in high heels, plus her hair was like 6 inches thick back then ;)
Jackson seems like a 5 ft 9 guy, he was just on some Japanese tv show which was hosted by some Japanese boy band called smap, and Jackson was a bit taller then all of them, but he was wearing boots I think, so he's probably same height as them, any japanese people around here? Does anyone know how tall the members of smap are? ;) Jackson was also towering over some of the japanese people in the studio, it seemed a bit weird 'cos he's usually not towering anyone but children.

Rob has seen a photo of him with me as well as others I worked with and my former assistant is more likely around 5'9". He was taller than Jackson by at least an inch.

He's not broke anymore, he negotiated some new deals regarding the atv-catalog with sony. He's very soft spoken and friendly, he acts a bit weird with people, it's no wonder, considering the life he has lived. When I met him he was a little taller then I would have expected, I'm 5 ft 11 and he was shorter than me, not much though, I'm terrible at guessing height so I would say 5 ft 9 - 5 ft 10, and as far as I could see he was wearing his trademark "dancing shoes" so there were no lifts or heels. He sometimes wears boots, and heeled shoes, but I don't think he does it because he wants to be taller, to me it seems he has no problem with his height.

Jackson's chief driver/body guard is one of Marlon Brando's sons. Jackson is nearly broke. I know since we have our cars serviced by the same shop and he couldn't pay his bill so they kept his limo until he could come up with the money. It sat there for weeks. While it was there I got into the backseat and couldn't believe how garish it was. Talk about bad taste!

Here's Michael With his nephew T.J. Jackson, who's reportedly 6 feet tall. Allthough Jackson is wearing boots, he's still taller, either T.J. is shorter then reported, or Michael's taller. If Michael wasn't wearing those shoes, he might be as tall as T.J. in that picture, and if T.J. added 2 inches to his height, then Michael's really close to 5 ft 10

Here's Michael With his nephew T.J. Jackson, who's reportedly 6 feet tall. Allthough Jackson is wearing boots, he's still taller, either T.J. is shorter then reported, or Michael's taller. If Michael wasn't wearing those shoes, he might be as tall as T.J. in that picture, and if T.J. added 2 inches to his height, then Michael's really close to 5 ft 10

Rob I really don't understand how M.Jackson can be listed as 5'11 on his mugshot whereas he's not ? The police station has certainly forgotten to measure him or it's impossible...

Editor Rob I mentioned this before, but there is no 'set way' the booking will lay down a height. It could be by asking the man, checking his driver license or having him stand beside the wall height chart and using that...8 and a half stone for Jacko is very light even at 5ft 9

Oups my photo doesn't appear on the link and I really don't understand why I don't manage anymore to connect myself on the site where I found this photo...
This photo showed Michael receiving award from Eddie Murphy for his album "Bad" in 1990 for ones who know what I'm talking about.

Rob if you've listed Murphy as 178cm you CAN'T list Michael as 177cm after the photo I found where Murphy has more 1cm than Michael...
M.Jackson is definitively no more than 175cm !

I've always pictured Eddie Murphy as around 5'9". But, I have to agree with J for a second. In that doco Jackson did actually look suprisingly tall and did seemingly wear low heeled shoes. Maybe though Bashir is infact only 5'4". But, the photo of him next to Nancy and Murphy I have to say makes him look 5'8ish.

I seriously doubt they placed Jackson against a height chart. Anyone ever see a mug shot showing that chart behind him? I doubt we ever will. He's a big celeb and celebs always get special treatment. I'm sure all the officers were busy getting his autograph while he was being booked. And Eddie Murphy is 5'9". I seen him up close. Jackson is no more than 5'8". I stood and spoke with Michael and he was a lot shorter than me. And Murphy says he's 5'10" which means he's shorter. If he was actually 5'10" then he'd claim he was 5'11". That's the game. As far as the postage stamp goes, who knows what either of them were wearing, standing on or for that matter if they're were digitally placed together at that height just to make the stamp look better. I stuck it there just for laughs. Anyone know what country that stamp belongs to?

Michael's 5'10"!!!! He's no shorter. The picture with Eddie Murphy is not a good one to deduct his height listing by as Jackson is clearly slouching. If you watch the Martin Bashir special that ran a few years ago, Michael is a good 4 inches taller than him and throughout the special, Mike only wears low heeled loafers. There's no way, Jackson is shorter than 5'10". Don't let his frail frame and piss poor posture fool you.

Mike ain't taller than 5'9"...Never was , never will be. He his so extremely thin but has good body proportions that he comes along tall on screen. When Michael is not dancing and out in public he often wears stylish boots with heels. They look ugly but if thw police measured him with these kind of shoes it explains the 5'11. He is 5'9".

In that picture with Eddie Murphy, it looks like Jakcson isn't standing quite straight, Judging from his feet, and looks like he's slouching a bit, I think if Jackson had stood straight he would've been Murphy's height. I've noticed from some pictures, that Jackson doesn't allways have the best posture, he's slouching alot.
He also seemed to be shorter when he was younger, allthough he wears some boots and high heeled shoes from time to time, but when he's wearing normal shoes he still seems to be taller than before, could it be possible that he grew? Didn't puberty hit Michael later than usual?
Does anyone have pictures of him when they arrested him and handcuffed, the police measured him to be 5 ft 11 with shoes on of course and flat hair.

Editor Rob it is unclear how they 'arrived at' the 5ft 11, be it from asking him directly, checking his driving license or having a guy look at him beside the wall-chart and saying 'yep, 5ft 11'

Yeah I've seeing photos of Jackson next to Reagan, Bush 1 and Clinton and Carter - next to them all he looked maximum 5'9" (he looked the same height as Carter). Actually I think some of those photo's are in the History album booklet if anyone has it (which also has him looking only just a bit taller than Steven Spielberg as well in one instance if memory serves correct).

Jackson was easily this height as a younger man, but he hasn't taken good care of himself, and is always in bad health. He's also permantly stooped, now. And, I'd seriously doubt he's this tall anymore. The only thing making him looking taller these days is his almost ghoulish figure (125 pounds and under when he's not taking care of himself).

I have no clue how tall Jacko is but his shoe size is 8 1/2 and I'm 5'5" and my size is 9 1/2 (though I'll probably grow more without my feet getting bigger). Also one of the jurors in his recent case described him as "a very small man with lots of energy." The juror was a 50 year old female horse trainer, so she was most likely not a giant herself.

It`s always difficult to say how tall somebody is if you don`t stand right in front of him or her... it`s always speculation.
I saw him briefly in London and I`d say his height is about 5`11``/ 180cm.

He actually could well be 5,11 but he has terrible posture and only stands near 5,9 when walking. Being quite frail he loses centimetres when walking around. If he was healthier i think he would actually be nearer to 6 foot.

Yeah Raj, that makes a lot of sense. When you get your driving license done you're
a normal citizen geting one of his rights, not a dangerous criminal who's asked to get barefoot and treated in a rude manner. Or has someone asked to remove his shoes for such a thing?

It seems as though money can buy anything these days. It can buy a not guilty verdict. If Jackson was a clean man with no crimes, he shouldn't of even been involved or in a court room. There must be some truth to the allegations of child molestation. And even if its the most miniscule of truths, it is of paramount concern for these poor children. My heart goes out to them. People should stop feeding Jacko's and other similar people's ego. He is shameless and dishonest. Just because he is a singer people think he is innocent. He is wrapped in his own needs and emotions that he only feeds his undying lust from external support. Someone should really test his innocence when his guard is down. Why couldn't someone video tape the proof. Why oh why. Jacko you are one of the many self centered, egotistical and shameless people this nation has to accept. I don't know what he stands for and If he had children would he like it if someone molested them. Or is he the type to molest his own children. Jacko is not a man, his height has nothing to do with what he stands for, whether he's 5' or 7'. F U jacko.

His height has never been a problem for him. He's always with his dance shoes (mocassins) which are less than 1/2 inch tall.
