Kesha’s Height and Shoe Size: How the Pop Star Stands Tall in Sky-High Heels

Kesha often says she’s 5′9″ (175 cm), though many believe she’s closer to 5′8½″ (174 cm). That still places her above the average American woman, with a shoe size around US 9.5 (UK 7.5, EU 40, JP 25.5).

Kesha first broke through in 2009 when she appeared on Flo Rida’s Right Round, quickly following it up with her own anthem TiK ToK, which cemented her as one of the defining pop stars of the early 2010s.

Her rise was interrupted in 2014 when she entered rehab for an eating disorder and began a lengthy legal battle with producer Dr. Luke that put her career on pause. During this time, she petitioned to leave her label, with high-profile stars like Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, and Ariana Grande offering public support.

Still, her music continued to resonate. Cannibal went viral on TikTok in 2021, and she returned with her fourth album, High Road, in 2020, featuring singles such as “Raising Hell” and “Resentment.” Reflecting on her evolution, she even dropped the “$” from her stage name, a symbolic step toward reclaiming her identity and artistry.

Kesha’s Fearless Approach to Footwear

From glitter-dusted sneakers to towering platform heels, Kesha’s shoe choices mirror her music and persona—bold, eclectic, and unapologetically her own. Whether stepping onto a red carpet or performing on stage, she leans into styles that mix rebellion with glamour, proving that her footwear is as unpredictable and captivating as her career itself.

After navigating career highs and personal challenges, Kesha’s style has remained as bold as her music. One constant thread? Her fearless approach to footwear, where every pair tells a story.

Showcasing Style: Kesha’s Iconic Footwear Choices

In early 2010, Kesha seemed to be everywhere. She showed off her feet at two events in London: the Shockwaves NME Awards and the 2010 Brit Awards.

I’m not a massive fan of the clothes she wears on the red carpet, but I do like her shoe choices.

I liked the t-strap platform gladiator sandals she wore at the Grammys, and I am pretty fascinated with the woven platforms she wore to the London-based award shows.

If you look closely, the shoes appear to be a hybrid or blend of sorts, like a cross between a T-strap, bootie, and sling-back, all mounted on thick, gold, angular platforms and high heels.

Kesha clearly loved these statement heels, as she brought the same pair back out for another major appearance.

In June 2016, Kesha embodied summertime chic in an all-white ensemble while catching a flight at Los Angeles International Airport. The 29-year-old singer turned heads in sheer white overalls embellished with intricate floral embroidery and appliqués.

The singer wore a wide-brimmed floppy hat over her long blonde tresses, which she styled into a pair of French braids to add an extra touch of summer to the look.

She kept her makeup feminine with dark mascara and pink lipstick and rounded out her look with open-toed white Schutz sandals.

These sold-out sandals, called the “Carolinis,” feature laser-cut details, stud accents, adjustable ankle straps, and about four-inch chunky heels.
