- Attractive figure
- In 1977, she wore a T-shirt that read "Farrah Fawcett Minor" to her first day on the set of Charlie's Angels (1976). She was also favored by Edward J. Lakso above the rest of the series' cast.
- She was the first choice for the lead role in The Burning Bed (1984), which she declined. The role eventually went to Farrah Fawcett, whom Ladd had replaced on Charlie's Angels (1976).
- In 1978, a listener wrote into Casey Kasem's "American Top 40" radio show, requesting a long-distance dedication (a weekly feature) to her, asking her to his high school prom. She personally telephoned the boy with her regrets, and he thought it was his friends playing a prank. The song in question, Cheryl's "Think It Over", peaked at #36.
- She was considered for the role eventually played by Meredith Baxter on Family (1976), which is how she came to producer Aaron Spelling's attention for Charlie's Angels (1976).
- I don't think people will ever forget I was an "Angel", anymore than they'll forget Sally Field was "The Flying Nun".
- I practice my golf swing naked.
- [In 2000, recalling her first year on Charlie's Angels (1976)] I wasn't overly, warmly received, I wouldn't say that. There was a really interesting dynamic that had occurred between Kate Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Jaclyn Smith that to this day I really don't know all the details of. There was a camaraderie, and they had success. I think when Farrah left, there was some awfully hurt feelings from Kate and Jaclyn.
