12. Jada Pinkett Smith — 5’0″
Jada Pinkett Smith may have only gained any major recognition after starring alongside Eddie Murphy inThe Nutty Professor, but that was nowhere near her first time in front of the camera. Starring, or at least making appearances, in an array of television shows since the late 1980s meant that she had enough experience to stand on par with the comedic talents of her co-star. In a similar regard, she has since continued on her path as an actress and has most recently lent her talents to the Batman-inspired television show Gotham, where she plays Fish Mooney. While Jada Pinkett Smith may have not landed the role as Will Smith‘s on-screen girlfriend in the family sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air due to her height, or lack thereof, their real life romance still stands as strong as it has ever been. While her husband may have over a foot on her, love has no bounds and when it comes down to something as silly as how tall you are .
11. Danny DeVito — 5’0″
Despite how short and stubby Danny DeVito may appear, his diversity and talent both in front of and behind the camera is nothing to shy away from. From being a director and producer to acting in all three mediums (stage, film and television), his willingness to expand his horizons to the utmost degree while still putting out quality work is an admirable trait. Given, early on in his career he did question how successful he would eventually become because it was nowhere near the walk in the park that he was expecting. However, after he landed a supporting role in in Taxi, a television show that ran from 1978 to 1983, as a dispatcher named Louie DePalma he could do nothing but go up the star-studded ladder. That being said, he’s also a loving husband to Rhea Perlman and father to three wonderful children.
