Cyd Charisse, at an exact 5ft 6 (167.6 cm), was an iconic American actress and dancer whose height defined her glamorous image and dance partnerships in Hollywood musicals.
Standing 5ft 6 (167.6 cm), she danced in flat heels with Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly—creating perfect visual synergy in masterpieces like Singin' in the Rain and The Band Wagon—while donning four-inch heels with towering Dan Dailey (6ft 4) in Meet Me in Las Vegas, embracing a delicate 'little girl' charm.
Her 5ft 6 (167.6 cm) frame, noted by MGM as 115 pounds, highlighted her legendary legs in films including Silk Stockings, Party Girl, Sombrero, and East Side, West Side.
