Actors Who Defy Expectation With Their Height Off Screen

Allison Janney – 6’0 (182 cm)

This Mom and The West Wing star describes herself as “5 feet 12 inches. I’m definitely 6 feet.” This doesn’t scare the sitcom royal, however, from wearing heels on the red carpets.

She told NPR: “In my heels, I’m 6 feet 3 inches. … [As a kid], I was always sort of a late bloomer in a lot of things. I always felt that way. I felt like my career started late and I think it was because of my height.” She admits it caused confidence issues in the past.
