Kendrick Lamar is not necessarily the tallest rapper – a fun fact that was called out by fellow shortie Quinta Brunson when the actress hosted Saturday Night Live over the weekend.
Back for her second time as host of the legendary show, the Abbott Elementary star opted to break into a song about her height challenges during her opening monologue – with help from Sabrina Carpenter and SNL star Marcelo Hernandez.
In addition to the 5’5″ K. Dot, Quinta also shouted out 4’8” Simone Biles and 5’7” Tom Holland.
Check out the hilarious clip below.

Back in the US, Kendrick has been breaking records on his Grand National tour which is co-headlined by SZA.
The tour’s first night saw Kendrick break Eminem‘s previous record of highest-grossing rap concert.
According to Touring Data, the opening night in Minneapolis grossed over $9.1 million from more than 47,000 fans at an average price of $192.70.
This means that Kendrick can now boast that he has the single highest grossing Hip Hop concert of all time, surpassing Eminem’s record from when he played in Melbourne, Australia in 2019.

It is also the first rap concert to break the $9 million barrier, and the Minneapolis stop was also the most attended gig for both Kendrick and SZA outside of festival performances.
