Often in movies and pictures, stars as famous as Brad Pitt appear to be taller than in real life. This phenomena has encouraged many fans to ask how tall is Brad Pitt. Particularly when Brad appears inphoto’s next to his domestic partner, Angelina Jolie, who reportedly stands quite tall as well.

The actor once voted the sexiest man alive, William Bradley Pitt, is the epitome of tall dark and handsome, however is that ‘tall’ true to life? His hovering feature often urges the question, How tall is Brad Pitt? Entertainment sources from Fashionweek, USA Today and even Yahoo Answers all have a variety of responses to this question, ranging from 5′ 10″ to 6′ 0″. However slight the variations, the official record, according to a Hollywood insider is that Brad Pitt is 5′ 10″ tall.

The controversy over how tall is Brad Pitt centers largely on the photographs of him and his co-actors. When compared to Gwyneth Paltrow, who is an admitted 5′ 9″, Brad appears to be a full 2″ taller. Even in pictures with his domestic partner Angelina Jolie, who claims to be 5′ 9″ (with heels) he appears a few inches taller.

The answer to Brad’s variable height issues may be revealed by recent gossip columnists whom have reported that Brad is inconspicuously wearing elevator shoes to effect a taller appearance. Even though, ‘The Washington Post’ reported that Brad Pitt listed his height as 5′ 10″ on an audition form recently, and some 20 years ago, Brad himself listed his height at 5′ 11″ in a teen magazine profile.

In a 2004 interview by a respected national paper during filming of Ocean’s Twelve, George Clooney (who stands 5′ 11″), Brad’s co-star revealed “He’s tall. He’s like 6′ 1″. It’s irritating.” This comment has furthered the burning question of how tall is Brad Pitt, since Brad’s co-actor admits he appears taller than he does.

We may never actually know the true answer to how tall is Brad Pitt, unless the paparazzi can get close enough with a good tape measure and a quick picture to finally reveal the answer. Nevertheless, despite all the speculation surrounding the true height of Brad Pitt, his larger than life career in Hollywood movies, and his recent social activism only enunciates further his formidable height and popularity which he seemingly hides well in his casual appearance and down to earth qualities.
