How tall is Justin Bieber?

Justin Bieber's height

Justin Bieber stands 175.3 cm (5′9″). That is the figure the site uses, and it is the one most consistently attached to him across a career that began on YouTube as a child and has now passed the 15-year mark. When the Associated Press described him in January 2014, in coverage of a police matter in Miami Beach, it gave his size as 5-foot-9 and 140 pounds, the closest thing to an official measurement on the public record for a pop star who has never had to appear on a team roster.

The exact conversion is 5′9″ = 69 inches × 2.54 = 175.26 cm, so the site's 175.3 cm is simply 5′9″ expressed in metric. Other figures circulate online, but none that the site found comes from a measured or reputable source.

Growing up in public

Few people have had their growth from boy to man watched by as many people as Bieber. He was discovered through YouTube cover videos, released his debut EP My World in 2009 at 15, and followed it with My World 2.0 in 2010, which topped the Billboard 200 on the strength of the single "Baby." At that point he was a small, slight teenager whose high voice and boyish looks were central to his early image.

Wikipedia records how quickly the milestones came: My World 2.0 made him the youngest solo male act to top the Billboard 200 since Stevie Wonder in 1963, and with Believe (2012) and its acoustic re-release he became the first artist in Billboard history to have five U.S. number-one albums by age 18. Purpose (2015) then yielded three Hot 100 number-one singles. No measured heights from his early teens were ever published, so this page does not guess at them.

The 2014 AP description, written when he was 19, already gave 5′9″, which suggests he had reached or nearly reached adult height by then.

Bieber beside his collaborators and peers

Pop stars are photographed together constantly, on stages, in videos and at award shows, which makes height comparisons easy to check. The table below uses the site's canonical heights for artists Bieber has worked with or is frequently compared to.

A few things stand out. Bieber is shorter than most of the male stars he is compared with, including fellow Canadian Drake, who is about three inches taller. Taylor Swift, at 180 cm, is nearly five centimeters taller than he is, a reminder that being one of the world's biggest pop stars has nothing to do with height. And his duet partners Billie Eilish and Ariana Grande, at 162.6 cm and 157.5 cm, are well below him, which is why he usually looks tall in their shared videos.

Justin and Hailey Bieber: a small height gap

The comparison people search for most is with his wife, the model Hailey Bieber (née Baldwin), whom he married in 2018. The site lists her at 171 cm. At 175.3 cm he is about 4 cm, or 1.7 inches, taller, a smaller gap than the roughly 13 cm difference between the average American man and woman in NHANES data.

Because the listed gap is only about 4 cm, any heel taller than that would put Hailey level with or above him in a photograph. Barefoot, on the listed figures, Justin is the taller of the two. Wikipedia notes that the couple became engaged in July 2018, that he said in November 2018 that they were married, and that they held an official ceremony in Bluffton, South Carolina, on 30 September 2019.

How 5′9″ compares with Canadian and American men

Bieber is Canadian, so the most relevant comparison is with Canadian men. The NCD Risk Factor Collaboration, whose figures this site uses, estimates that Canadian men born in 1996 average 178.1 cm as adults. Bieber, born in 1994, is about 2.8 cm below that average. You can see the century-long trend on the Canada average height page; Canadian men gained more than 7 cm between the 1896 and 1996 birth cohorts.

Statistics Canada also runs its own measured survey, the Canadian Health Measures Survey. The survey began in 2007 and runs in repeated cycles, with physical measures taken at temporary examination centers; the current cycle collects data from spring 2025 to spring 2027. Measured surveys like this matter because self-reported heights can drift from what a stadiometer shows.

Bieber now lives largely in the United States, and there his height is very close to typical. In the CDC's NHANES measurements for August 2021 to August 2023, the median American man aged 30 to 39 is 176.4 cm and the 25th percentile is 171.3 cm. At 175.3 cm, Bieber sits at roughly the 45th percentile, essentially an average-height American man. The height percentile calculator will show exactly where any height falls.

The last line is striking: against all American men aged 20 and over, Bieber's height is almost exactly the median.

Weight and build

The only published figure for his weight is the 140 lb (about 63.5 kg) given by the AP in 2014, when he was 19. No current weight is listed by any official source, so this page does not estimate one. At 175.3 cm and 63.5 kg, his 2014 body mass index would have been about 20.7; BMI is a population screening tool rather than a measure of an individual's fitness.

A height that never held back a global career

Bieber's career is a clear example of how little height matters in pop music compared with acting or sport. Billboard Canada notes that Billboard ranked him the 8th greatest pop star of the 21st century in 2024, and that he received an honorable mention on Billboard's list of the greatest pop stars of 2025, the year he returned after a three-year break with the 21-track album Swag. The record topped the Billboard Canadian Albums chart for a week, delivered his best streaming results to date, earned four Grammy nominations including Album of the Year, and was followed a few months later by Swag II. He was booked to headline Coachella in April 2026, reportedly as the highest-paid act in the festival's history.

How Bieber compares with other male musicians

Because this site records heights for nearly a hundred male musicians, it is possible to place Bieber within his own profession rather than just the general population. Across the 94 male musicians in the site's database, the average height is 177.5 cm and the median is 176 cm. Bieber's 175.3 cm puts him just below the middle: roughly 46 percent of the male musicians in the data are shorter than him.

That is a useful corrective to the common assumption that pop stars are unusually short. Male musicians in the site's data are, on average, almost exactly as tall as the general male population of the United States and Canada, and Bieber is a fairly typical example.

Among his fellow Canadians in the database, the spread is wide:

Bieber and Leonard Cohen, two very different Canadian icons born 60 years apart, are effectively the same height. Michael Bublé, another Canadian singer who became a global star, is just under three centimeters taller.

Famous men at Bieber's height

Seen alongside other famous men of about the same height in the site's data, 175 cm looks less like a pop-star quirk and more like an ordinary adult male height shared by people from every field:

• Michael Jackson (175 cm), the most famous former child star in pop history, was effectively the same height.
• Neymar (175 cm), the Brazilian forward, is level with him.
• Marlon Brando (175 cm), one of the most commanding screen actors of the 20th century, was the same.
• Harry S. Truman (175 cm) is the U.S. president closest to his height.

The Michael Jackson comparison is apt. Jackson, like Bieber, became famous as a child and grew up in front of an audience, and his stage presence never depended on size. Both are reminders that a performer's perceived stature is built from movement, voice and staging far more than from centimeters. On the NHANES figures above, both stood at almost exactly the median height of American men.

Why the AP figure is the reference

Pop stars rarely appear on official rosters, so a measured height is hard to come by. Statistics Canada's survey shows why measurement matters: the Canadian Health Measures Survey, running since 2007, combines a home interview with a visit to a temporary examination center where physical measures are taken, rather than relying on self-reports. Nothing comparable exists for celebrities, and the AP's 2014 description is the most authoritative public figure for Bieber. The site's 175.3 cm matches it exactly.

Compare yourself with Justin Bieber

To see how you would stand beside him, enter 175.3 cm and your own height in the height difference calculator. A woman of average American height (161.2 cm in NHANES) would be about 14 cm shorter. A man of 6′0″ (183 cm) would be about 7.6 cm taller, roughly the gap between Bieber and Drake. For a quick look at the conversion itself, the site's page on 175 cm in feet shows how that height breaks down in feet and inches.
