Brooke Shields is unquestionably among Hollywood’s tall ladies. However, her youngest daughter Grier may be taller than her mother. When the family is photographed together, it’s easy to notice how much taller the 14-year-old appears to be than her mother. Perhaps she will follow in her mother’s footsteps and enter the modeling industry!

Famke Janssen

When Famke Janssen starred as Jean Grey in the X-Men franchise, her height caused some friction with her co-stars. Hugh Jackman, who plays Wolverine, stands at 6’2″ – a full foot taller than the character in the comic books. And James Marsden, who portrayed Grey’s lover Scott Summers, a.k.a. Cyclops, is only 5’9″ tall. As a consequence, he was forced to wear shoe lifts to appear as tall as her.
