Tarayummy stands 5 feet 6 inches tall. The measurement puts the Persian-American content creator at 167 centimeters, a fact confirmed across her appearances at major fashion events including the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in October 2025.
The question comes up frequently because Tara Mirshokraei, her legal name, often appears alongside other influencers in collaborations and videos. At 5’6″, she matches the stature of creators like Addison Rae while standing an inch taller than Emma Chamberlain.

From Maryland Bedroom to LA Spotlight
Mirshokraei was born July 31, 2000, in Maryland to Iranian immigrant parents Arash Mirshokraei and Tabassom Sarlak. She posted her first Instagram photo on July 19, 2017, a close-up shot of her eye and fingers. The account stayed relatively small for the first two years.
Her YouTube channel launched in January 2012, though she waited until March 2019 to upload her first video. That debut Q&A introduced audiences to her personality, mixing humor with candid responses about growing up first-generation American in a strict household.
Growth remained steady but unremarkable through 2019 and 2020. Her Instagram following plateaued around several hundred thousand. Then came the Dropouts podcast.
The Podcast That Changed Everything
When Tarayummy joined Zach Justice and Jared Bailey as co-host of Dropouts, replacing Indiana Massara, her follower count exploded. Between late 2023 and early 2024, she gained over 2 million followers across platforms in roughly six months.
The comedy podcast uploaded episodes every Tuesday to Spotify and YouTube. Segments included hot takes, relationship discussions, and unfiltered conversations that resonated with Gen Z audiences. Her chemistry with the hosts drove viewership into the millions.
But the visibility came with a cost. In July 2024, Mirshokraei posted a YouTube video titled “I Left Dropouts.” She explained the format pushed her beyond her comfort zone.
“Being on the podcast, sometimes I got really vulnerable, and that’s not something I’m used to doing,” she said. “I want you guys to feel like you’re on FaceTime with your bestie. I feel like being on the podcast didn’t really feel like that unless it was my own podcast and I kind of controlled that narrative.”
Height, Weight, and Body Measurements
Tarayummy weighs between 54 and 55 kilograms (119-121 pounds). Her body measurements are 34-26-35 inches. She has black hair and brown eyes, physical traits tied to her Persian heritage.
Her 5’6″ frame sits slightly above the average American woman’s height of 5’4″. In modeling contexts, the measurement gives her range. She can work editorial shoots that prefer taller models while maintaining relatability for lifestyle and fashion content aimed at everyday audiences.
Major Brand Deals and Career Pivots
Marc Jacobs selected Mirshokraei as the muse for their Y2K-inspired campaign in 2024. The partnership represented her first major luxury fashion deal, validating her crossover from pure social media into traditional modeling.
She attended the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show at Steiner Studios in New York on October 15, 2025. The event marked another milestone in her transition from influencer to recognized fashion figure.
Her entertainment ventures expanded beyond content creation. In March 2024, she appeared in the music video for “OVER YOU” by Landon Barker. Earlier, she completed a stand-up comedy tour called “Selling Myself Short Tour,” which wrapped in Los Angeles in March 2023 after selling out multiple cities.
The most unexpected career turn came with DJing. Mirshokraei debuted in New York City alongside atlgrandma and Ky Newman. In an interview with Euphoria magazine, she admitted hitting the pause button accidentally during the set. Despite the mishap, she sold out two consecutive nights at the Roxy in Los Angeles for her first headline shows.
Platform Numbers and Collaborations
As of January 2026, Tarayummy maintains:
3 million Instagram followers on her main account @tarayummyy
2.2 million YouTube subscribers with 178 million total views
9 million TikTok followers where she posts lifestyle and comedy content
420,000 Twitter followers
93,000 Twitch followers
Her YouTube video “Stuck in a car with Vinnie Hacker” remains her most viewed at 3.2 million. She collaborates regularly with Jake Webber, Larray, Tana Mongeau, Sam and Colby, and the Sturniolo Triplets.
Relationship Timeline and Personal Details
Mirshokraei dated fellow YouTuber Jake Webber from 2019 until September 2023. They announced their breakup in a joint video titled “Jake and Tara: Break Up,” stating they would remain friends. The pair still appears in each other’s content occasionally.
In July 2024, she was photographed with Rob Rausch, a Love Island contestant, in Calabasas. Neither confirmed whether they were dating. Rumors about a relationship with Dropouts co-host Zach Justice have circulated, though both deny any romantic connection.
She explained her username origin in a 2022 interview with Celeb Secrets: “I love tacos, so I thought Tara Tacos. However, I chose Tarayummy because tacos are yummy. This became my nickname in middle school and high school.”
She owns a dog named Sugar, adopted in May 2020.
The Influencer Who Grew Up Online
At 25, Mirshokraei has spent nearly a third of her life building an audience. She started posting at 16, hit her stride at 23 when Dropouts took off, and now operates as both content creator and working model.
Her height of 5’6″ factors into that versatility. Tall enough for runway consideration, approachable enough for the “FaceTime with your bestie” vibe she aims to create. The measurement itself matters less than what it represents: an influencer who bridges the gap between aspirational fashion content and everyday relatability.
That balance, more than any single physical attribute, explains why millions keep watching.
