About Nelly's real height
Nelly is not that tall -- you may have already noticed this since you were searching about his real height.
He has been described as a 5 feet 8 inches man most of his career, though he has claimed to be taller.
After seeing him standing next to someone like Ludacris (5'8"), it is hard to think of Nelly as taller than the 5'8" mark.
His arrest mugshot showed him between 5'8" and 5'9" but he was probably in shoes and his posture wasn't great as well.
In short, Nelly can be described as short but never small guy -- he is thickly built at 180 lb (82 kg).
The real height of Nelly is
5 ft 8 in (173 cm)
