Super Bowl viewers had lots of questions about Kendrick Lamar’s performance during the half-time show on Sunday night. But one question irked at the minds of fans more than others: “How tall is Kendrick Lamar?” Google Trends showed how searches for this question surged by 350 percent while the prompt ‘Kendrick Lamar height’ also dramatically spiked. The rapper’s height, which is five-foot six-inches, shocked fans across the United States and around the world. The Daily Mail shared various X posts showing how surprised fans were to find out about his shortness. Viewers were also keen to find out about Lamar’s costs to Super Bowl organizers, political opinions and co-performers, who counted the singer SZA, actor Samuel L. Jackson and tennis champion Serena Williams among them. The rapper also used his performance to take a swipe at his rival Drake, who is suing Lamar over his song “Not Like Us” which refers to him as a “certified pedophile.” Lamar has received mixed reviews for his performance, with some praising him for his originality while some among the MAGA faithful, including Matt Gaetz and George Santos, have thrown their toys out of the pram and cried out about the performance.
