Cher Diet Height Height Challenged Weight

CHER DOESN’T HAVE TO DIET – SHE JUST GETS TALLER!

You gotta give Cher some credit – she figured out a whole new way to feel thinner without giving up ice cream or the other yummy desserts she loves. She lies about her HEIGHT! Back in the 1970’s Cher admitted to being 5’6” and she still towered over her husband Sonny Bono. In the eighties she claimed to be ALMOST 5’8”, and currently she insists she is officially 5’9”. Having been to her yard sale years ago, we KNOW she is 5’5” to 5’6” at the MOST. (We tried on her clothes!) Cher figures that if she is 5’9,” she can eat more and whatever she weighs (135 lbs?) looks like LESS because she’s tall. Above, the Mamma Mia star is enjoying ice cream in St Tropez, and of course she looks great, height notwithstanding…

Barron Trump Height Melania Trump

BARRON TRUMP IS NOT EASILY IMPRESSED

We don’t get to see Barron Trump very often but it looks like he’s grown about six inches in the past year! His mother Melania Trump is around 5’10” and his father is 6’2”, but Barron looks to be around six feet tall at the age of 11! He’s actually quite nice looking despite the fact that he did inherit his father’s lower face. Barron rarely takes part in White House events like the Obama girls did, but he joined Melania for the official Christmas tree delivery. Ho hum. He doesn’t look very excited about it, however.

Donald Trump George Clooney Height

GEORGE CLOONEY DIDN’T NEED ANOTHER REASON TO DISLIKE DONALD TRUMP

George Clooney didn’t need the fact that Donald Trump was actually elected President to dislike him. Clooney not only predicted that Trump would lose the election, but HAS been among the loudest of Trump’s critics. He recently told The Hollywood Reporter about his ONLY personal encounter with Donald Trump:
“I was sitting down at a restaurant in New York [several years ago] and he came in and we talked for a while,” he recalls. “I’d had neck surgery, and he said, ‘I’ll give you the name of a doctor,’ and he wrote me a couple of times with the name. Then he went on Larry King Live and told him I was very short. I’m 5-foot-11 — I’m not the tallest actor in the world, but I’m not short. That made me laugh.”
Laugh? We doubt it- both Trump and Clooney seem to have similar masculine flaws, but we’re Team Clooney.

Height Challenged Penny Lancaster Rod Stewart

ROD STEWART: DO YA THINK I’M SHRINKING?

127611PCN_Rod01cut

At least Rod Stewart, 69, has a sense of humor about the height difference between him and his wife Penny Lancaster, 43. He squatted down so he’d look even shorter in this photo to amuse the paparazzi. Supposedly there is only a three inch height difference between Rod and Penny (she’s 6’1” and he’s 5’10”) but her heels make a difference. Rod, who has eight children, (two boys with Penny) is currently performing at Caesar’s palace in Las Vegas through February.

Annie Height Challenged Jada Pinkett Smith Will Smith Willow Smith

WILLOW SMITH SIMPLY GREW OUT OF HER “ANNIE” ROLE

#willowsmith #janetcharlton

Back in 2011, Will and Jada Smith announced their production company would be doing the remake of the Broadway show “Annie” with music by Jay-Z, and most important of all, starring their daughter Willow, who was VERY excited about playing the role. They had some trouble settling on a director and the project was postponed several times. Now the movie has come together and Sony hired someone named Will Gluck to direct,but Willow is OUT as Annie. The reason: she simply GREW too much! When Willow had the part she was only nine. Now 11, she’s grown into a very tall girl and can no longer play a child. Ironically, Lilla Crawford, who currently plays “Annie” on Broadway is also 11, but far more petite than Willow. Since she’s too big to play a child, Willow will have to audition for teen roles now.

Carole Mallory Height Challenged Robert DeNiro Socks

THIS IS HOW ROBERT DENIRO ADDED INCHES IN THE BEDROOM

#robertdeniro #janetcharlton

We had to laugh when we read about former model/actress Carole Mallory’s affairs with famous men in an excerpt from her new book “Picasso’s Ghost” on Page Six. Back in the seventies, party girl Carole was a hot number and slept with numerous celebrities. In 1975, she met Robert DeNiro at the Chateau Marmont and they had a 14 day affair. She was puzzled by the fact that he left his socks on in bed. WE can reveal WHY! In the seventies, everybody wanted to be taller and thinner and actors thought nothing of having their shoes – even running shoes – built up inside to add inches of height. DeNiro took it a step further- we heard that he had his SOCKS built up inside so he’d still be tall in the bedroom. No kidding. It looks like Carole finally validated that piece of ancient but juicy gossip.

Height Challenged Jeremy Renner Mission Impossible Sylvester Stallone Tom Cruise

IS TOM CRUISE CASTING HIS COSTARS ACCORDING TO THEIR HEIGHT?

Back in the day, Sylvester Stallone kept a close eye on the size of the men who appeared in movies with him. We remember once he was shooting in a soundstage some kind of fight scene with lots of extras involved when he suddenly cut the action. He looked around and and decided the other guys in the scene were too tall. Assistants had to run around the studio and quickly find short men to put on the costumes and appear in the scene. A diminutive painter was actually pulled off a ladder, costumed, and added to the action. We don’t think it’s a coincidence that Tom Cruise chose equally height challenged Jeremy Renner as his costar and his character Ethan’s “right hand man” in Mission: Impossible IV.

Elle Fanning Height Challenged Shoes! Super 8 Tom Cruise

IS TOM CRUISE SHORTER THAN A 13 YEAR OLD?

Okay, we just love stories about actors with lifts in their shoes. Tom Cruise wore his custom (and highly suspicious) black boots to the Super 8 premier, but he should watch out whom he stands next to. Elle Fanning appears taller than Tom and she’s only 13! Of course she’s wearing platforms, and we’re not certain just how many inches Tom adds with his boots, but if he’d kept a distance from Elle, this speculation wouldn’t have happened at all.
