Gaga's height?

[Customzanotti 1,750]

So we know that our lady of gagalupe is 5'2 ish, which is... y'know... short, but i never really get the impression that she's that short from photos. Her dancers aren't a lot taller than her, and she doesn't really wear 12 inch stilettos when she's performing, so what is it? Optical illusions or poor eyesight? Does she only hire munchkin dancers?? Discuss!

I think a lot of her dancers are really short. I remember seeing Sloan mention in an IG post that she was 5'3 or something like that.

It's either that or all these years of feasting on the blood of the innocent gained Gaga some height.

The second pic for example Gaga is wearing heels while her dancers are not and they still have 3-4 inches on her. Which brings the dancers to 5'7'-6'0 range which is basically average.

I think she is actually taller than 5 foot 2 since she once said that she is 5 foot 3 and 3/4. And the name of the documentary came from a song that had "five foot two" in its lyrics (maybe "Has Anybody Seen My Gal?")  and it was played on the background at one scene and it kind of fit to the fact that Gaga is short. But I think she's actually a normal height woman

They're also 5 foot 2, welcome to the Joanne era

I agree with the reasons already posted but there's one more:

This kind of shoulders are meant to create the illusion that the wearer is taller. It just tricks the eye.  Add the fact that she wears hills and that her dancers could be short themselves and are still taller than her.

I'm guessing the geometry of the skirt and wig has the same effect:

Im 5’3 and I towered over her

Google says she's 5 foot 1, but I'm not sure she does seem a little taller. Bradley Cooper is 6 foot 1 and I'm not sure she looked a full foot shorter than him in all those pictures (taking into account her heels)

I hope she's 5 foot 3 and 3/4 because then we can be the same height  but I'm not sure she's that tall

I think what you are talking about was when she was joking as she accepted that award from...MTV? (It was shaped like a popcorn, lol, sorry I don't remember what it was ). I think it was for 5 foot 2, and she was basically like 'lol, im actually 5 foot 3 3/4, tricked you guys!". I don't think she was actually making a factual statement about her height. 

I had always heard/read she is 5 foot 1, but may have grown an inch with the hip sx, or otherwise maybe it's some artistic statement akin to the MTN opening. "It’s not that I have been dishonest; it’s just that I loathe reality", like she's always reaching a tiny bit further or sth.

Not that much 

[Reginald 13,676]

I still can't believe that she's over a foot shorter than me 

 

[COOOK 76,405]

She's 365

[MaryJaneHolland 77,348]

I still believe she is 5"1.

The documentary was probably called that way because of the song used in it, and the MTV Movie Awards thing was probably just a joke.

I mean...

From this angle you can tell how short she is compared to her dancers

especially when wearing flats in the daytime
