"People will make mean comments. People are going to say that you're fat, that you're this, that you're that. You just have to be comfortable in your own skin."
~ Ashley Benson
American actress and singer, Ashley Benson is perhaps known for her role as Hanna Marin in the TV series "Pretty Little Liars". She has also appeared in movies like "Christmas Cupid", "Spring Breakers", "Ratter", "Chronically Metropolitan", and many more.
In Pretty Little Liars, Ashley was described as 5 feet 7 inches tall -- which is clearly not true because she looks far shorter than Shay Mitchell who is around 5'7" to 5'8". Ashley herself once mentioned her height as 5 feet 5 inches.
After looking at Ashley Benson and comparing her to a few other celebrities like Chloe Grace Morez (5'4"), Selena Gomez (5'5"), and Cara Delevingne (5'7½"), we think that Ashley is definitely shorter than her claim, let her Pretty Little Liars height.
The real height of Ashley Benson is
5'3½" or 161.5 cm

Ashely Benson seems like such an interesting person, here are some fun quotes from her:
Ashley Benson on having guy friends.
I have one good girlfriend and then most of my friends are guys. Which I love because they're just like so easygoing and I love to play like Xbox and just chill out when I'm not working, so boys are probably the way to go for me.
Ashley Benson on boys like bad girls.
Boys like it when you're mean. That's what I'm best at. I make them feel so bad about themselves, all out of fun.
Ashley Benson on boys who dress to kill.
I love guys who know how to dress. I love motorcycle boots, and I love skinnier jeans with jackets and scarves. Anybody who gets his clothes at All Saints, that's my guy.
Ashley Benson on her love (lack) of roommates.
I don't think I could live with anybody. I had roommates, and it's not for me. I like my space!
Ashley Benson on getting cool gifts.
I get really cool gifts, and I know this sounds really lame, but I think one of the best gifts I've ever received was the Easy Bake Oven when I was younger. When I was little, I loved to bake! I want to get one now so I can make weird mini desserts for people.
Ashley Benson on her playful demeanor.
I don't want to be with someone boring because I'm always laughing. I like to play jokes on people and be sarcastic.
Ashley Benson on knowing what it feels to be left out.
I know what it's like to be left out... I certainly went through a period of time where I got made fun of and people were so mean to me, so I can really relate to that.
Ashley Benson on her crazy phases.
When I was younger, I went through a lot of different phases. One day I'd be punk rock, and the next I would be tomboyish, and then I would be really girly. I was so weird. My two best friends and I were just crazy and goofy!
Ashley Benson on getting ready for her oscar acceptance speech.
This sounds crazy, but my goal is to be nominated for an Oscar. I was the kid who was practicing my acceptance speech when I was ten.
Ashley Benson having her style of fun as a kid.
When I was little I used to dance and model and that was fun. But I was always the person that was goofing off and I would memorize every line in every movie that I saw. And at recess that's what I would do, I would talk to my friends and recite movies.
