Who has to search Britney? Just stop at a checkout magazine stand.
1WOW -- tall lady -- you go girl!
2That guy is in prime position to look up her skirt.
3Geez, one more foot and her legs alone would be as tall as me!
4I was more surprised that Jennifer Aniston was the most powerful actress at one point.
5Me too Adren...
6I don't think I have words for this picture.
7I guess I would come up to her waist.
8Yeah, me too, girlA.
9I didn't realize they picked things like "most powerful actress". I thought that they were all categories that could be proven empirically somehow!
10Wait, they're still publishing the guiness book of world records? I stopped caring about it years ago. They added so many ridiculous catergories that the records are largely meaningless now.
11Amybdk, that's what I was thinking! I hope she's wearing panties.
12I bet that man hopes she's NOT wearing any!
13
14She has great legs.
15Yes! Tina Turner times 10!
16How do they decide who is powerful? Do they mean the amount of money raked in or tickets sold? And I wonder how tall she is total, not just her gams?!
17Wiki says she's about 6'5"
18wow.
19GS.... you only need to grow a couple more inches to edge out the competition! How long are YOUR legs?!
20My inseam is a 38-40". She has me beat!
21I wonder if they are measuring inseam or hip to foot?
22What's your hip to foot?
23My inseam is barely 30". Yes, I'm short.
24When my husband gets home I'll have him measure me! The tape measure is in the toolbox in his truck.
25I'd say she has you beat, by about a foot!
2651 inches is the length of her whole leg, from the waist to the bottom of the feet. And she is wearing heels. Her inseam is 43 inchest at most. The tallest American man (7'8) has a 43" inseam.

27We measured and my hip to food is right at 42.
28lol, not food foot! I am hungry!
29It was freudian. You know, where you say one thing and mean your mother.
30I wonder what size pantyhose she has to buy?
I remember when reading the Guinness book was a special thing, i used to get a ragged copy from the library, Nowadays its full of just the dumbest things that its no longer special.

GS, you are on a roll! (so cute!)
32
GS! Thanks for my first good laugh of the day!
33lol, am having issues today. Bella sent me a cup of coffee. We'll see if that helps.
34I too am in the short club...I'm only a foot taller than her legs as well.
35I too am in the short club...I'm only a foot taller than her legs as well.
36I would love to be cute and little most of the time!
37Give me some of your leg length, then. I wouldn't mind being able to wear flats without feeling like a Keebler elf.
38lol, I want to be able to wear heels and not win a costume contest as an amazon.
My friend and I, she is 6'4" barefoot, won a halloween contest at Harry's (a big bar in College Station) and we didn't even dress up!
39Oh, dear!
40I'd like to wear average length jeans and not call them my "tall girl" jeans
41lol, don't even get me started on, "When's the flood?"
42What's sad is when the short leg pants shrink too much and (all 5 feet 4 inches of me) gets that comment
43GS, at least you don't have to have the tailor remove 6 inches of material off the bottoms of every single pair of jeans you buy
(The grass is always greener, right?)
44Seriously Jude!!
Ever try on some boot cut jeans...only to have so much material needing to be removed that they they're not boot cut anymore?
45Yeah, they turn into those tapered emo jeans. Ugh.
46Ugh is right!
47lol, I've never even thought about that! Unfortunately I think I may have to do this for my daughter. She is ALL TORSO!
