How tall is Kevin Hart? World Cup draw host’s height takes center stage at Kennedy Center

FIFA enlisted a number of luminaries to lead its 2026 World Cup draw coverage, chief among them the celebrity duo of Kevin Hart and Heidi Klum. The American comedian and German-American model were tasked with hosting duties on Friday afternoon.

Hart and Klum are supernovas in their respective fields. Their football acumen was predictably lacking, leading to a number of awkward exchanges. Nevertheless, when Hart and Klum took to the stage, one thing became eminently clear: Hart is a short fellow.

So, just how tall is Hart? And how does his height compare to Klum’s? The Sporting News has the scoop.

How tall is Kevin Hart?

Hart stands at 5’5. He’s diminutive by most standards, standing four inches shorter than his World Cup draw co-host Klum.

Hart also falls short of Argentine supernova Lionel Messi, who towers over the Philadelphia-based comedian at 5’7.

Suffice to say, Hart’s height was a talking point throughout the spectacle.  It was especially noticeable as he stood next to Klum.
