- Minnie Pearl had two fast food chains in the southern United States during the 1960s and 1970s. They were "Minnie Pearl's Roast Beef" and "Minnie Pearl's Chicken." The slogan for both chains was "Howww-deeee-licious!"
- First country music performer to be surprised with their life story on the 1950's series "This Is Your Life".

- The costume she wore on stage (red and white checkered dress, straw hat with price tag still on it, etc.) was based on clothes she herself had picked out from a thrift store.

- Elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1975.
