Siobhan Fahey, precisely 5ft 4 (162.6 cm) tall, brought a petite yet commanding presence to the 1980s pop scene. Her compact stature enhanced her dynamic image as a founding member of Bananarama, where she contributed to massive hits like "Venus" and "Cruel Summer," her height allowing for agile, energetic stage performances alongside taller bandmates. Launching Shakespears Sister, Fahey's diminutive frame amplified the gothic drama of chart-toppers like "Stay," which held the UK number one spot for eight weeks. She reunited with Bananarama for triumphant 2017 UK and 2018 international tours, proving her small size belied her outsized influence.
