Get height of item from another ViewController

I have a custom cell in a UITableView. I programatically created a label with a height of 200 and a width of 50. When I do an NSLog in the customCell.m of the label's width and height, it gives me w: 50 and h: 200. But when I do an NSLog in mainViewController.m it gives me 0 for the height and width.

Not sure why it does that. I need to get the real height of the label in the mainViewController.m

Here's my code:

customCell.m

- (void)awakeFromNib {

    self.label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 50, 200)];
    [self.label setBackgroundColor:[UIColor yellowColor]];
    [self.label setText:@"Hello"];
    [self.myView addSubview:self.label];

    CGRect myFrame = self.myView.frame;
    myFrame.size.height = self.label.frame.size.height;

    self.myView.frame = myFrame;
    NSLog(@"%f", self.label.frame.size.height);  // Results: 200.0000
}
mainViewController.m

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view.

    customCell *cellVC = [[cutsomCell alloc] init];

    NSLog(@"%f, %f", cellVC.label.frame.size.height, cellVC.frame.size.height); // Results: 0.0000, 44.0000
}

I set myView to 0 in the storyBoard.
