Linda Blair, standing at exactly 5ft 2 (157.5 cm), is an American actress best known for her breakout role as the possessed Regan MacNeil in The Exorcist (1973). Her petite stature amplified the vulnerability and intensity of the character, making her performance unforgettable.
Blair's compact 157.5 cm frame brought a fierce energy to action-horror roles in films like Hell Night (1981), Savage Streets (1984), and the parody Repossessed (1990). A 1981 news article noted her at 5-foot-2, emphasizing her disciplined approach to fitness that supported her dynamic on-screen presence.
Also an activist, Blair's height has been a consistent aspect of her public image across decades in entertainment.
