LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Even after being a massive name in the hip-hop world, Nicki Minaj falls short when it comes to her height, as she's said to be 5 ft 2 in (157 cm).
The 40-year-old Trinidadian diva once confirmed her height in her chart-busting song 'Whip It', rapping, "I'm like 5'2" / My SAT scores was high too."
However, she left fans confused in 2020 when she again spoke about her height in an Instagram Live. When a fan jokingly commented that Nicki Minaj needed to "watch her 5-foot-2 mouth," she clapped back by saying, "First of all, I'm glad you said that. I'm not 5' 2", I'm 5' 3"! I said that on ['Whip It'] ... I just said that 'cause it rhymed! Durr!"
Whatever Nicki Minaj’s true height is, she is seemingly shorter than the average height of an American woman, who apparently measures 5 ft 4 in (163 cm).
Before becoming the Queen of Rap, Nicki Minaj began her career as a mixtape artist in New York City, where she developed her rhyming talents as early as 12, before releasing her first studio album, 'Pink Friday', in November 2022.
She managed to cement her legacy with chartbuster songs including, 'Super Bass', 'Bang Bang', 'Anaconda', 'Moment 4 Life', and 'The Night Is Still Young'.
Nicki Minaj's height compared to her peers and rivals
Nicki Minaj’s height places her in the middle of the pop pack, as she's seemingly shorter than several female rappers, including Megan Thee Stallion (5 ft 10 in or 178 cm), Lizzo (5 ft 10 in or 177 cm), SZA (5 ft 5 in or 162 cm), and Rihanna (5 ft 8 in or 173 cm).
However, Nicki Minaj doesn’t look much shorter when compared to the likes of Cardi B (5 ft 1 in or 154 cm), Bhad Bhabie (5 ft 2 in or 155 cm), Lil Kim (4 ft 9 in or 144 cm), and Missy Elliott (5 ft 2 in or 156 cm).
Nicki Minaj's height compared to her husband Kenneth Petty
Nicki Minaj is significantly shorter than her husband Kenneth "Zoo" Petty, who reportedly measures 5 ft 11 in (180 cm).
The 'Anaconda' singer first crossed paths with her husband when they were students at LaGuardia High School in New York City. They lost touch for a few years before reconnecting in 2018 when a whirlwind romance sparked between them.
The pair went public with their romance in December 2018 when Minaj shared an Instagram carousel of them. "He wants me to be his wife - his MISSIS like SIPPI NOW," read the caption.
A year later, Minaj and Petty tied the knot on October 21, 2019. She confirmed her marriage through an Instagram post, writing, "Onika Tanya Maraj-Petty 10*21*19."
Later, on September 30, 2020, they welcomed a baby boy, whose name has not been revealed yet but is often referred to as "Papa Bear."
