Maurice Chevalier, precisely 5ft 10 (177.8 cm) tall, embodied the suave, debonair Frenchman whose stature enhanced his charismatic presence as a singer and actor in Hollywood's golden age of musicals.
Standing at this exact height, he captivated audiences with songs like Louise, Mimi, Valentine, and Thank Heaven for Little Girls. In his autobiography, Chevalier noted his 5ft 10 frame made him feel diminutive among taller Americans, underscoring his elegant European charm.
- Starred in iconic films including Gigi, Love in the Afternoon, The Love Parade, Love Me Tonight, and Can-Can.
- His height perfectly suited roles as the quintessential romantic lead and cabaret performer.
