    Well, not far off

    Pete adopted the stage name “Megan Thee Stallion” after she was called a “stallion” during her adolescence due to her height (5 ft 10 in (178 cm))[7] and “thicc” body frame;[10] voluptuous, statuesque women in the southern United States are sometimes colloquially called “stallions”.[1]

      TIL Megan Thee Stallion is eye level with me

      That’s actually shorter than I expected, IDK why I always expect celebs to be taller than they are in person.

      Also the version I saw her give was that she decided on it after some grampa on a stoop type guy started jokingly cat calling her and saying she was “hot” like a stallion, I think it was meant more to be a joke about her being a big personality.

      Oh. I always assumed it was because she is, like, well endowed, or something. Guess that’s a me thing.

      Can’t find any height comparison photos but her proportions in the photos I do see scaled up to this stated height are positively Amazonian. She looks like she could crush my head with her thighs.
