Jyoti Kishanji Amge (born 16 December 1993)[1] is an Indian actress notable for being the world's shortest living woman according to the Guinness World Records.[3][4][5]
Following Amge's 18th birthday on 16 December 2011, she was officially declared the world's shortest living woman by Guinness World Records with a height of 62.8 centimetres (2 ft 3⁄4 in).[6][7] Her restricted height is due to a genetic disorder called primordial dwarfism.[8][1]
Amge was featured in the 2009 documentary titled Body Shock: Two Foot Tall Teen.[6] She was also a guest participant on Bigg Boss 6, an Indian television show. On 13 August 2014, she was cast in the fourth season of American Horror Story: Freak Show as Ma Petite.[6]
In 2012, she met the world's shortest man, Chandra Bahadur Dangi of Nepal. The pair posed together for the 57th edition of the Guinness World Records.[9]
