This is because when they see him in photos or on television, he always seems to be taller than anyone he stands with. Another reason may be the fact that people easily make comments or jokes about his height. Blake Shelton stands taller than many men at 6 feet and 4 inches tall. Although some people claim he is 6 feet and 5 inches tall. When asked about this, Shelton jokes about it saying; “I have had people tell me they think I’m 6’ 5” but that’s with my boots on”.
