Actors Who Defy Expectation With Their Height Off Screen

Kristen Johnston – 6’1 (185 cm)

This former star of Third Rock From The Sun is taller than most people in the world – let alone her co-stars! Joseph Gordon-Levitt, her male co-star, was considerably shorter than her so their scenes together were restricted and she often sat down in them.

Still, she didn’t have to worry about standing next to John Lithgow – he’s a massive 6’4! Today, Kristen Johnston can be seen in the sitcom Mom. She is a recovering alcoholic and advocates for sobriety.
