7 Naomi Scott Facts Every Aladdin Fan Should Know

By now you probably know who Naomi Scott is. She’s the actress who played Jasmine in the Guy Richie’s live-action Aladdin movie that came out earlier this year. And while everyone agrees that her acting in this movie was great and she gave more dimension to Jasmin than we’ve ever seen before, few people know anything else about Naomi Scott and her life. So we thought, since she’s kind of the new embodiment of a very much loved Disney Princess, we would share some interesting facts about her life with you.

1. Naomi Scott’s Age

Naomi Scott was born on May 6th 1993, in London. So she’s 26 at the moment and if you look at her acting abilities and her interviews, we’re sure you’ll agree that she’s very mature for her age. She just seems to know what she wants and has a clear vision of her life and it’s honestly very refreshing to see that.

2. Naomi Scott’s Height

Naomi is 167 cm tall, or 5′ 6″ if you think in feet. That’s not even that short, but when you’re acting next to Will Smith, she must’ve felt pretty short. However, she was not the shortest person in the cast of Aladdin. Nasim Pedrar who played Dalia was the shortest one, at 163 cm.

3. Naomi Scott’s Ethnicity

Naomi’s mother is a Uganda-born Gujarati Indian who immigrated to Britain at a relatively young age and her father is British. So you could say she’s of mixed heritage but once you talk to her you get the feeling that she’s just very British in the best way possible.
