The music star stands at just five foot four or 1.63 meters. Uzi is listed as weighing somewhere between 140 and 150 pounds or 63.5-68 kilograms. In his song Sanguine Paradise, he stated that if he stood on his money he’d be six foot six.

To compare, Uzi is just about the same height as hip hop legend Lil Wayne. Conversely, he’d be towered over by the five-foot-eleven Freddie Gibbs.

Lil Uzi Vert Girlfriend

Symere Woods is currently romantically involved with JT a.k.a Jatavia Johnson, who’s a member of City Girls. JT along with Yung Miami form the duo who featured on Drake’s In My Feelings track.

Uzi previously dated fashion designer Brittany Bryd for nearly four years. Believe it or not, Uzi’s current lover was sentenced to 24 months in federal prison for aggravated identity theft on fraudulent credit card charges. She’d end up serving hardly any time at all though.

Lil Uzi Vert Diamond

Shockingly, the rapper literally had a $24 million pink diamond implanted directly into his forehead. Unfortunately, the stone was dislodged from his head at the recent Rolling Loud festival when he jumped into the crowd.

Luckily, he didn’t suffer any serious damage from the incident. Now, Uzi has a barbell piercing in its place, and yes, he still has the diamond in his possession.
