The Shortest Men In Hollywood Who Prove Height Is Not an Issue
When watching our favorite Hollywood hunks on the big screen, it is hard to notice that some may be lacking in a certain department. No, not that! We are talking about their height…
Tom Cruise – 5’7″
There have been numerous discussion boards and blogs that try to prove Tom Cruise is two inches less than 5’7″. Some have even clocked all the moments that Cruise has worn heeled boots or shoe lifts. Meanwhile, he still insists on dating women who are “a little” taller than him.
Ben Stiller – 5’7″
It seems that short men really are the funniest as Ben Stiller, who is known for his epic comedy movies, has also made the cut. He played a really, really, really, really good looking model (sorry, fan joke) in Zoolander, however, it is pretty unlikely he would manage to get the modeling gig in real life seeing as he is only 5’7″. Thanks to his 5’5″ actor father, Jerry Stiller, Ben chose the right path by following in his footsteps.
Al Pacino – 5’7″
If you are alive, you’ve probably heard of Al Pacino. He is a man with a prolific career including acting and an ability to write and direct films. Unfortunately for him, however, being 5 feet 7 inches almost cost him his role in The Godfather. It was revealed during a Tribeca film festival that Paramount producers thought he was “too short” for the role. Although one of the most talented in the business, height isn’t one of his many talents.
Martin Scorsese – 5’3″
When once asked about his thoughts on sports, the producer/director/actor replied, “Sports? Anything with a ball, no good!” Martin Scorsese’s reaction may be due to his little height of only 5 feet 3 inches. Surely the actor would not have made for a good starting forward in a basketball match. However, he did not need sports, as today he is one of the most influential directors in Hollywood. You may recognize the little man from his appearances in Curb Your Enthusiasm and 30 Rock.
Dave Franco – 5’7″
It seems as though Dave Franco drew the short straw from the gene pool compared to his older brother James Franco. Although coming from a talented famous trio of brothers, Dave has made it in the world of Hollywood on his own merit. However, maybe he just felt the need to catch up, given that James Franco is four inches taller than his 5’7″ younger brother. His wife, Alison Brie, might want to hold off on the heels for red carpet events.
Michael J. Fox – 5’4″
He may be one of the shortest men in Hollywood, but who cares when you can travel through time? The award-winning star may wish to go “back to the future” and ask the Doc for an extra few inches. While his wife, Tracy Pollan, is only two inches taller than him, it makes for a pretty noticeable difference when she puts on a pair of stilettos and stands next to her 5’4″ husband. Even their son has shot passed him.
Danny DeVito – 4’10”
The celebrity you have all been waiting for and who’s most likely expected to be on this list is Danny DeVito. The Emmy Award-winning actor even opened up about how he wanted to feel comfortable and have friends in school and would try to compensate for his short height with his big personality.At just 4’10”, DeVito is probably the shortest of all men in Hollywood, but we love him for it. He is only two inches smaller than his wife, yet all their children have overtaken them.
Prince – 5’2″
The iconic singer known as Prince had his fair share of dipping his feet into acting, too, and starred in the 1984 film Purple Rain. He also made a rare cameo in the comedy New Girl a few years before his passing. Although his height was not so noticeable at first, people did comment on his use of heels. He once said, “People say I’m wearing heels because I’m short. I wear heels because the women like ’em.” Prince was just 5 feet 2 inches (and is wearing heels in this picture)!
Daniel Radcliffe – 5’5″
We watched Daniel Radcliffe grow up on the set of Harry Potter from a cute little 11-year-old into a successful actor. Although he didn’t grow too much, as he now stands at a comfortable 5 feet 5 inches. When asked in an interview whether his size limits roles he plays, he responded, “I don’t think so. Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise have very different careers, and they’re both about the same height as I am.” Perhaps he should use the ‘Engorgio’ spell if he wants other roles.
Dustin Hoffman – 5’6″
He has been around since the 1960s and hasn’t grown an inch ever since. Appearing in many popular films such as The Graduate, Meet The Fockers, and All The President’s Men, this talented acting genius has managed to overcome his 5’6″ height. He revealed in an interview that he was surprised when Mike Nicholas cast him for The Graduate, “Nichols chose to give this short, funny-looking Jewish guy the role usually reserved for a tall, handsome protestant,” he said.
Elijah Wood – 5’5″
Often mistaken for Daniel Radcliffe’s twin, Elijah Wood does not fall far behind in terms of height, bar an inch or so. Ideally cast for his role in the Lord of Rings, Wood made a perfect Hobbit who would go on epic adventures with a cool ring and hang out with wizards. Although he may not have feet the size of the Hobbit in real life, his costumes for the role seemed to fit him just right.
Seth Green – 5’3″
When watching our favorite Hollywood hunks on the big screen, it is hard to notice that some may be lacking in a certain department. No, not that! We are talking about their height. There may be a reason that Seth Green lends his voice to shows more than he appears on, and it may be due to his appearance. At only 5’3″, Seth is a few inches shorter than his wife but it doesn’t seem to bother the happy couple.
Bruno Mars – 5’5″
Bruno Mars captivates hearts all over the world with his charm and charisma. When he tells us through our sound systems that he will catch a grenade for us or that he thinks he wants to marry us, we just melt at the knees. However, the fact he will love us just the way we are may be his way of implying he hopes for the same, given that the “Uptown Funk” singer’s 5 feet 5 height may be a big insecurity.

Viva Mexico.
Salma Hayek enjoyed a splash in the sea while vacationing in Los Cabos, Mexico, with billionaire husband François-Henri Pinault and some of their children.
The 56-year-old actress showcased her curves in a striking blue-and-white printed bikini with gold accents and accessorized the look with a duo of necklaces, going makeup-free and letting her hair down for the fun-filled family outing.
Hayek has sent pulses racing all summer with her sexy snaps, whether she’s celebrating National Bikini Day, squeezing in a workout or boating around the world.
As for how she stays looking ageless, the star has said she forgoes Botox injections in favor of meditation and frequency machines to maintain her youthful appearance.

Hayek was seen enjoying her day out on a yacht, enjoying a dip and spending time with Pinault, whom she married in 2009.
The fashion mogul matched his wife in blue swim trunks, and Hayek later layered on a crochet-trimmed cover-up in the same shade.
The couple share daughter Valentina Pinault, 16, and the French businessman has three children from previous relationships: daughter Mathilde and son François, both from his marriage to Dorothée Lepère, and son Augustin, whom he shares with with model Linda Evangelista.
It’s been a bikini-filled summer for the movie star.

Evangelista recently joined her fellow OG supermodels Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford and Naomi Campbell on the cover of Vogue’s September issue and shared a behind-the-scenes peek at her sweet relationship with Hayek.
“I was sick at Thanksgiving. And Salma got on the plane with her daughter, came here, and made Thanksgiving dinner,” Evangelista said. “She made a feast — a beautiful, beautiful meal. I had told her that I wasn’t going to have Thanksgiving; I wasn’t feeling well. And she said, ‘Oh yes you are: I am coming.’ And poof, she was here.”
From the kitchen to Los Cabos, it seems Hayek can do it all.
Salma Hayek is spilling the secrets behind her fit physique.
The actress, 57, credited practicing meditation over intense exercise as the key to staying youthful in a new interview.
“I really believe it is. People say it’s exercising. I think it’s meditation,” she told “Entertainment Tonight.“
“You have to find your way. For me, exercising is hard,” she admitted. “It’s really, really difficult to have the discipline to do it. But meditation is a walk in the park, because it’s my own form of it.”
Hayek added that she practices the routine “every day” and takes the time to “sit in a moment with yourself.”
The “Frida” star previously gushed about the mindfulness technique on a July episode of Kelly Ripa’s SiriusXM podcast, “Let’s Talk Off Camera.”

“People say it’s exercising. I think it’s meditation,” Hayek said of maintaining her youthful appearance.

“When I don’t [meditate] for some time, guess what? Not only [does] the face starts to drop and everything starts to drop, [but also] my herniated disc, the problem in my neck, the problem in my hip, my ankles [comes back]. I start breaking down,” she said at the time.
Hayek explained that she has even gotten to the point of her meditation routine where she feels energy “dancing” through her body.
“Sometimes when I’m doing it, people tell me when I come out of the room, ‘Oh my God, you look 20 years old,’” she raved.
The “Frida” star admitted it’s “difficult” for her to consistently exercise.

Hayek recently showed off her meditation success in a bikini pic for her 57th birthday.

The Mexican-American beauty also divulged that she’s never gotten Botox and instead relies on “frequency machines” in addition to her meditation practices.
“The people that do the machines say that the results I get, they don’t get with other people,” she spilled.
Hayek has not been shy in showing off the results of her health and wellness routines and even recently shared a sultry snap in a red bikini for her 57th birthday.
Billie Eilish’s fans are happier than ever after seeing this sexy snap.
The “Bad Guy” songstress popped up in an Instagram post shared by pal Annabel Zimmer (daughter of famed composer Hans Zimmer) Saturday, soaking up the sun in a boldly printed Miaou bikini top and Versace shades.
Billie Eilish posed for a rare bikini photo on Instagram over the weekend — and showed off her chest tattoo for the very first time.

The rare swimsuit pic also marks the first time Eilish, 21, has shown off her chest tattoo of her surname, which she once swore fans wouldn’t “ever see.”
In 2021, Rolling Stone reported Eilish had her last name inked “in an ornate, gothic font” the day after the 2020 Grammys, where she scooped up five awards including Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Best New Artist.
“I have one here that says ‘Eilish.’ Yes, I love myself,” Eilish explained of the design during her annual Vanity Fair “Same Interview” video later that same year.
The singer, 21, was photographed sunbathing in a Miaou swimsuit top.

While Eilish once lived in baggy looks, she’s since begun embracing more body-conscious styles.

She has several other tattoos, including a few “guardian angel fairies” on her left wrist and hand — from “a little fairy book called ‘Fairyopolis,’” as Eilish told Vanity Fair — and a large dragon winding up her right thigh and hip, which she referred to as a “big boy” in the same video interview.
Although the “Ocean Eyes” hitmaker’s personal style has continued to evolve from baggy clothes to more feminine looks in recent years, she appeared shy about the revealing picture, as she reacted to the post with a see-no-evil monkey emoji.
However, her admirers didn’t hold back while dropping a series of thirsty remarks.

“You’re beautiful, I love you,” one person replied to Eilish’s comment, while another wrote, “my heart stopped cause of you.”
Other comments included, “life as a REAL REAL REALLLYYYY hot girl,” “Missgurl we’re not breathing” and “you look very sexy 🥵.”
Eilish’s bikini bombshell comes weeks after she fired back at the “f—king bozos” who have called her a “sellout” for embracing her femininity.

“I spent the first 5 years of my career getting absolutely OBLITERATED by you fools for being boy-ish and dressing how I did & constantly being told I’d be hotter if I acted like a woman,” she shared via her Instagram Stories in May.
“And now when I feel comfortable enough to wear anything remotely feminine or fitting, I CHANGED and am a sellout.. and ‘what happened to her’ oMg iT’s nOt thE sAmE biLlie she’s just like the rest blah blah.”
She then told followers, “FUN FACT! Did you know that women are multifaceted!!!!!??? Shocking right?? Believe it or not, women can be interested in multiple things.”

The Oscar-winning musician has spoken candidly about her struggles to love and accept her body in the past.
“Going through my teenage years of hating myself and all that stupid s—t, a lot of it came from my anger toward my body, and how mad I was at how much pain it’s caused me, and how much I’ve lost because of things that happened to it,” Eilish told Vogue in January, referencing a hip injury that kept her from pursuing a dance career.
“I felt like my body was gaslighting me for years,” she added. “I had to go through a process of being like, my body is actually me. And it’s not out to get me.”
