Fresh star stories with a cool online feel.

According to The Things, Lil' Kim really is as little as her name suggests and stands at a very tiny 4 feet 11 inches tall. The name Lil' Kim should have given it away, shouldn't it? 

Positioned alongside other rappers, Lil' Kim also stands out as one of the shortest. In fact, she is a few inches shorter than Nicki Minaj, who stands at 5 feet 2 inches tall, per Capital Xtra. Meanwhile, Grammy Award-winner Megan Thee Stallion, who is 5 feet 10 inches tall, would tower over Lil' Kim (via Showbiz Cheat Sheet). 

Some other female rappers who are taller than Lil' Kim include Eve, who according to Celeb Heights stands at just below 5 feet 7 inches tall, and Remy Ma, who stands at a towering 5 feet 10 inches, per Celebrity Inside. One rapper who has body-shamed Lil' Kim for her height is 50 Cent, who once reposted a video on Instagram that compared her to a leprechaun. 

Although Lil' Kim might be short in stature, her talents as one of the world's top rap artists are sky-high.
