I'm five feet eight inches tall, five-seven on days when when gravity is a little heavier.  When I saw this list from StarCrush.com I felt a little better about myself.  It just goes to show you that height has little (no pun) to do with the ability to entertain.

     Some guys are short – and use their height as an excuse to not achieve their goals.  If you’re short and you think it’s limiting you, think again.

Here’s a rundown of some male celebrities who have achieved great things – despite being short:
