- Flexi rod curls.
- Her sultry, seductive vocals.
- Her songs reflected upon love and occasionally about sugar.
- She collaborates with other popular musicians with her songs.
- Duetted with Robert Palmer when he was recording future hit "Addicted to Love." Even though Palmer was thrilled with the collaborative end product, Khan's vocals had to be erased from the master tape due to the fact that she had two other singles on release at the same time (conflict of interest issues). When "Addicted to Love" topped the American charts in May 1986, it did so without Khan's vocals, although she did receive a vocal arrangement credit for her efforts.
- Became a grandmother in 1992 at age 39, when daughter Millini (then 18), gave birth to her daughter Raeven.
- Chaka means "fire" in many African languages!
- "I Feel for You", one of her signature songs, was originally recorded by Prince on his 1979 debut album.
- She was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for Recording at 6623 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California on May 19, 2011.
- [on being called a "diva", 2007] We looked it up in the dictionary. A diva is a distinguished singer, but she's also a chick who throws a fit because she believes the hype. I don't really care, though. I get more pissed about the kind of chicks that pass for divas these days.
