You might be thinking, “Okay, cool, but I’m never going to spot her at the cereal aisle. Why should I care?” That’s a fair question. Here’s why it’s actually kind of delightful: height gives us a secret, silly way to connect with celebrities. It turns a glossy magazine face into someone you can picture in your real life.
For example, remember that tall friend you have? The one who always volunteers to change the lightbulb in your kitchen? That’s Kendall energy. You could ask her to help you hang a picture frame at eye level, and she’d do it in heels without breaking a sweat. It makes her relatable in a weird, “oh, she’s just the tall girl in the group” kind of way.

My first thought wasn’t “Oh, a celebrity!” It was, “Wow, she could see the best apples from three rows back.” We all stood on our tiptoes, craning our necks, but she just existed up there. That’s exactly what Kendall’s height feels like—a natural, effortless advantage in a world built for shorter people. She doesn’t even have to try.
