"We only have one life, and it is very precious, and there's a lot we can do, and there's a lot we should do."
-- Selena Gomez
American singer, Selena Gomez is not short but she can look like it... sometimes. She looks kind of young for her age too - maybe that's about it. Selena herself has claimed her height to be 5'5" to 5'6" in the past. After comparing her to some people like Kristen Stewart (5'4"), Miley Cyrus (5'4.5"), Justin Bieber (5'7.5"), and some others, we think we have nailed down her height - she is closer to 5'5" than 5'6" in real life.
The real height of Selena Gomez is
5'5" or 165 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.
