Jaime King, precisely 5ft 8 (172.7 cm) tall, is an American actress and former model whose height became a defining theme in her career journey. Hailing from Omaha, Nebraska, she launched her modeling career under the names Jamie King and James King, navigating an industry that once favored taller figures.
At 5ft 8, King candidly shared feeling challenged to reach supermodel status amid icons like Cindy Crawford, yet Kate Moss's breakthrough for those around 172.7 cm empowered her waif-like rise. This stature accentuated her ethereal image in campaigns and early roles.
Transitioning to acting, her elegant 5ft 8 frame shone in hits like Sin City, Pearl Harbor, White Chicks, Slackers, and The Spirit, where it amplified her versatile, striking presence on screen.
