How Old is Katt Williams?
Katt Williams, born Micah Williams, is a 51-year-old stand-up comedian from Ohio known for his comedy specials and his various roles in film and television. In 2002, he played Money Mike in Ice Cube’s Friday After Next, and he voiced the character of A Pimp Named Slickback in the cult classic series, The Boondocks, created by Aaron McGruder.
After emancipating himself from his parents at only 13, Williams went on to make a life for himself in Florida and eventually established himself as a mainstream comedian. He starred in his first comedy special titled Katt Williams: Live: Let a Playa Play in 2006, and in 2007 his stand-up movie, American Hustle, was a critical and commercial success.
Katt Williams Height: Shorter Than the Average
The average height for a man in the United States is 5 feet 9 inches tall, so that would put Mr. Williams at 4 inches below average. Despite several sources citing that he is 5 feet 5 inches, there are a few sources which state that he is actually slightly shorter than that. One source in particular argues that Williams stands at 5 feet 4 and ¾ inches, which is basically 5 feet 5 inches. Regardless of whether he is 5 feet 5 inches or somewhat shorter, when it comes to males in America, he is still below average in height.
Williams Height in Comparison
Williams vs. Kevin Hart
It is safe to say that Katt Williams paved the way for popular comics like Kevin Hart. These men are both hugely talented and natural comics who happen to be shorter in height compared to their other famous comedic counterparts like Dave Chapelle and Eddie Murphy. Kevin Hart’s height is listed as 5 feet 2 inches which is a 3-inch difference compared to Williams; however, this isn’t the only difference between the two. Back in 2020, the comedic legends had a public disagreement that also involved comedienne Tiffany Haddish.
Williams vs. Mike Epps
There are quite a handful of entertainers who are taller than Katt Williams; take his Friday After Next castmate, Mike Epps, for example. Epps—American comedian most notable for his role as Day-Day in the Friday film series—is 6 feet 2 inches tall making him a whopping 9 inches taller than Mr. Williams!

Williams vs. His Cousin
You may be wondering, what’s so interesting about Katt Williams’ height in comparison to some random cousin of his? Well, that random cousin isn’t random at all but rather popular southern rapper and actor Ludacris! Ludacris, born Christopher Brian Bridges, is known for his hip-hop hits like “Move B***h” and “Money Maker.” With Ludacris being 5 feet 8 inches, he is 3 inches taller than his funny relative.
Small in Height and Weight
We know that Mr. Williams is 5 feet 5 inches and below the average height for males in the United States, but can the same be said for his weight? Yes, it can.
Katt Williams is said to weigh somewhere between 143-145 pounds. It is always hard to pinpoint celebrities—or really anyone’s—weight because the weight of a human body often fluctuates. By Williams being within this weight range, that would place him about 52.9-54.9 pounds below the average 197.9 pound American male.
No Average Lifestyle
Unlike his height and weight, Williams’ lifestyle is nowhere near below average. Williams has had a series of run-ins with the law over the years that started in 2006 when he was arrested for the possession of a stolen gun. In 2010, he was charged with burglary and criminal trespassing after stealing $3,500 worth of coins and jewelry. Williams has also had countless assault and battery charges made against him dating back to 2011.
A Comedic Success
Despite his many legal issues, Katt Williams has proven himself to be a true comedic success. These days, Mr. Williams is still entertaining people with his witty—sometimes controversial—comedy specials. World War III is his most recent stand-up special and it can be streamed on Netflix. Williams’ comedic genius has also earned him a Primetime Emmy award in 2018 for his role as Willie in FX’s Atlanta.
Summary
Katt Williams’ height and weight may be smaller than most other famous men in Hollywood, but that doesn’t make him any less entertaining. Williams is an incredible comic who has a lively and unique way of making people laugh. They say laughter is the best medicine and Williams is one of the many legendary “doctors” who delivers this medicine successfully.
