BARRON TRUMP HAS HIS OWN IDEAS

Like many 17-year-olds, Barron Trump is applying to colleges and he plans on going AWAY to school, far, far away.  Now that his father is running for President again, Barron wants to get as far away as he can from the political craziness, so that means leaving the country! Barron gets decent grades, and is hoping to get accepted into Cambridge or Oxford – two of the top universities in the UK. Unlike his half siblings, 6’7″ Barron prefers to stay OUT of the spotlight and feels studying abroad makes the most sense. (Indeed, he does look uncomfortable in every photo we see of him) Here’s the kicker – his loving mom Melania is planning to move across the pond if Barron gets accepted as a student in England…hmmm

TAYLOR SWIFT FOUND A GUY BIGGER THAN SHE IS

Taylor Swift is gushing to pals that one of the things she loves MOST about dating Travis Kelce is that she can wear high heels! Aside from 6’3” John Mayer, Taylor’s last boyfriends were close to her height, which is just over 5’10.” She HAS towered over some of her exes – yes we’re talking to you, 5’7” Joe Jonas. Strapping Travis is 6’5” in bare feet, so Taylor can pull out the stilettos and platforms and he’s still taller than she is. Naturally, Taylor is shoe shopping like never before, but she can easily afford it. She’s estimated to have made close to a billion dollars from her tour and concert movie.

SIMON COWELL’S LITTLE SECRET

Okay, we have to confess- Male Vanity is one of our all-time favorite subjects. So when we see an excellent example of it, we just have to point it out. Simon Cowell was walking around on a chilly day in London, enjoying his weight loss and displaying his chest, as usual. What interested US, of course, is this photo that clearly reveals his elevator shoes. He has these pointy booties custom made at considerable expense, to give himself an extra three inches of height and figures that no one is aware, but WE are! And now you are too …

ROD STEWART IS FEELING SHORT

Rod Stewart can’t help but laugh at the height difference between him and his 17 year old son Alastair. Actually, Rod is a perfectly acceptable 5’10,” so Alastair must be quite tall. Obviously Alastair got his height from his mom, Rod’s model wife Penny Lancaster, who is 6 feet tall. Most of Rod’s kids (he has 8 – with 5 different women) are taller than him because most of his ex-wives and girlfriends happen to be models. Alastair already has a modeling career of his own in progress…

BILLY IDOL LAUGHS AT HIMSELF

SOME people were not dressing up in costume and partying last weekend. Billy Idol and Kareem Abdul Jabbar were at a Teen Cancer America benefit, raising money for the charity. (Actually a lot of rockers like Elton, Harry Styles, Lizzo, Joan Jett, etc are involved in this charity) Billy gleefully posted this photo of himself looking like a midget next to the basketball legend.

IS SYLVESTER STALLONE A TOUGH GUY?

Sylvester Stallone has long been somewhat obsessed with his height. His true height is somewhere between 5’8” and the 5’11” that he claims. We remember years back when he was making a movie at a film studio, and he sent someone out to look for male extras for a scene with him. It didn’t matter what they looked like – they just had to be shorter than him! Like that OTHER action star, Tom Cruise, Sly buys elevator shoes from expensive Italian shoemakers, although he IS credited with being the first actor to wear built up sneakers. So we were surprised to see this photo of Sly shopping in Rome with a couple of friends and several bodyguards who are ALL bigger than he is, in spite of his heeled cowboy boots… It also makes you wonder why Sly NEEDS bodyguards…

TOM CRUISE: SMALL BUT IMPORTANT

Sorry, but we couldn’t resist publishing this photo! Tom Cruise has moved on to London for the Top Gun: Maverick premier and unfortunately for him, he was photographed with Prince William and Kate Middleton. We say “unfortunately” because in spite of his special shoes, the Royals do make him look short. That must be why Tom loves to make spectacular ego-boosting arrivals at his premiers in helicopters and fighter jets…

TOM CRUISE STILL CRAVES THOSE EXTRA INCHES

It’s fascinating that Tom Cruise and his Top Gun:Maverick costar Jennifer Connelly are the same height (5’7”) and look like it in this photo in spite of the fact that she is wearing platform sandals that give her an extra 4 or 5 more inches. It makes one wonder WHAT Tom Cruise has in his shoes! Tom has his top-of-the-line shoes custom made with special lifts inside. Still, he remains dwarfed by his male costars…

JENNIFER LOPEZ AND BEN HAVE THEIR DIFFERENCES

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck were seen picking up his son Samuel at school in Santa Monica today, and it got us thinking. They’re both casually dressed, but Jennifer is wearing shoes that give her at least 6 or 7 more inches of height (they can’t be very comfortable) -yet she still looks TINY next to Ben. Jennifer is such a big personality we always figured she was above average in height. Turns out Ben is 6’4” – no wonder he looks a foot taller than her. Never realized there was such a height difference…

WHAT ROLE DOES PUTIN’S HEIGHT PLAY IN THIS WAR?

We’re not sure if Vladimir Putin is taller or shorter than Tom Cruise, but he is equally self-conscious about his height. There’s considerable online discussion about the carefully guarded secret of his actual height but the general opinion is from 5’3 to 5’6.” He’s been wearing hidden lifts in his shoes for YEARS – especially in situations where he has to stand next to taller heads of state for photographs. Smaller men have to be more assertive. His ego, which prompts him to wear lifts, is also fueling this aggressive war in Ukraine which has made him the most important man in the world right now.
