Brooke Shields | 6’0″

Brooke Shields began her career as a child actor and model before landing the role of Susan in the NBC blockbuster comedy sitcom Suddenly Susan.Although it’s not surprising that a former supermodel is taller than the average woman, Shields stands out from the crowd, standing between 5’9 and 5’11 feet. She grew to 6’0, but you might be surprised to learn how young she was.

When she filmed The Blue Lagoon at 14, she was already a towering 5’10” and was taller than her co-star Christopher Atkins. Walking the red carpet with Shields was like having the Statue of Liberty standing behind him, according to Atkins. Shields’ love of fashion extends beyond the runway. In recent years, she has created clothing and accessory brands for QVC. And what were her most significant investments? Shoes! Even though she’s six feet tall, the taller the better.
