Aretha Franklin's Height

5ft 5 (165.1 cm)

American Singer, best remembered for songs such as "I Say a Little Prayer" and "Respect". In Ebony magazine, October 1974 she said "I'm only 5'5"". Photo by PR Photos

At the root of it was a thing I had for years about wanting to be a little shorter, so I tried to shorten myself by sort of stooping over when I walked. That developed improper posture, which is something I really had to work on.

With my height - I'm only five foot, five inches - I couldn't stand being that size [15]. Size fourteen was bad enough.
