What is Beyonces Height and Weight?


By Amy Nutt

One of todays most popular entertainers is Beyonce Knowles. She is talented, smart, funny, and beautiful. She has been busy making music from a young age and went on to become part of popular group Destinys Child. In the years that followed, she broke out on her own, producing a total so far of 3 albums and still has much more to come. Not only has she shown us her musical talents, but she has also starred in a number of movies and even lent her hand to endorsing a handful of products.

Beyonce seems to have it all and yet at the center of her career is a near obsessive debate about her height and weight. There are even sites filled with blogs and first hand accounts of people seeing Beyonce and trying to calculate her height. Some even go so far as to try to debunk or confirm those persons calculations based on other evidence offered.

Some have suggested that she is very self conscience about her height and so bills herself as taller than she actually is and tries to hide her actual height by choosing to wear height heels and watch the style and cut of her clothing thus adding more to the illusion of being tall.

Early on in her career she stated that she was 5 feet and 6 inches tall and weighs 135 lbs; the weight may have fluctuated since then since this was during her Destinys Child days, but should be no more than 5 to 10 lbs difference at this point today. According to various sources, her height has ranged anywhere from 5 feet and 2 inches, all the way up to 6 feet. As for her weight, that has been reported in as being anything from 130 lbs all the way to 185 lbs. An interview held with Beyonce in Ebony magazine, stated that she is a petite lady of 5 feet and 3 inches in height. Considering the reputation of Ebony, it is doubtful that they are quoting the stars height incorrectly. She often appears taller due to camera angles and photo staging to keep proportions, or one person equal to that of others in the shot. Also, music videos are often shot at low angles which add to the appearance of a person being taller than they actually are. She shows a preference for very high heels which depending on the style of the shoe and the designer, can add anywhere from 4 to 7 inches to her height. She also often tends to wear her hair styles high or big, which adds to her height.

Beyonce has also appeared to be quite voluptuous but in person it seems she is very petite and slender. Various explanations have been offered to answer this question. Everything from the style of clothing to the camera adding weight has been blamed for the stars extra weight and curves. Some have made comments that her hips are quite wide and so she cannot weigh what she claims to, and debates have been had over her clothing size. Various sources claim she is anywhere from a size 6 to a size 10, and anything in between.

Only Beyonce knows if she actually is a petite 5 ft and 3, weighing 135 lbs. If she is cautious about revealing her true weight and height, or even if she has been telling us the truth all this time, it will most likely not end the continuing speculation from fans all over the world.
