"Maybe your weird is my normal. Who's to say?"
-- Nicki Minaj
American singer, Nicki Minaj looks taller than she is. Perhaps it is her well-proportioned body with relatively long legs. Nicki herself has claimed to be 5'2" to 5'3" a few times in the past. Maybe she is somewhere in between, but after comparing her to Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande, both of whom are closer to 5 feet than any number, we think that Nicki is closer to 5'2" than 5'3".
The real height of Nicki Minaj is
5'2" or 157.5 cm

Data painstakingly extracted more or less from Wikipedia and some other sources. Expect up to half an inch of discrepancy from real life. All heights are supposed to belong to relatively young people of the urban areas, so they may come out slightly over the real average height.
