Katy Perry and her squad of stellar superwomen just blasted off and back in style, and they’re finally spilling the intergalactic beans.
So who was in this VIP cosmic carpool? We’ve got:
– Lauren Sánchez (space queen and future Mrs. Bezos),
– Katy Perry (pop star turned space bard),
– Gayle King (journalist and low-key lunar explorer),
– Aisha Bowe (ex-NASA rocket genius and current badass),
– Amanda Nguyen (civil rights icon with galactic glow), and
– Kerianne Flynn (film producer and future producer of Space Housewives of West Texas).
These six wonder women yeeted themselves into the stratosphere aboard Blue Origin’s rocket, reaching the Kármán line—aka the space “you must be this high to ride” marker—at 62 miles above Earth. They floated for a whole 4 minutes, which, if you’re wondering, is about the same amount of time it takes me to completely forget why I walked into a room.
And when they came back down? Oh honey. Katy Perry and Gayle King kissed the ground like it was Ryan Gosling’s forehead.
Lauren Sánchez, meanwhile, said, “I had to come back. I mean, we’re getting married this summer!” And honestly, fair—missing your own wedding because you got too hype in orbit would be peak main character energy, but probably not worth the drama.
Aisha Bowe called the whole thing a “pinch me” moment. Relatable. I too would need to be pinched (and possibly resuscitated) if I found myself flying through space with a pop icon.
Now, let’s get to the real tea: Katy Perry sang in space. Yeah. In zero gravity. While floating like a glittery musical balloon. Her song of choice? “What a Wonderful World” by Louis Armstrong.
“I’ve covered that song before,” Katy said, “but I didn’t realize my higher self would pilot me to do it while casually chilling in the void of space.” Classic Katy. Earth is overrated. She’s charting the Milky Way now.
She also brought a literal daisy with her into orbit, in honor of her daughter, Daisy Bloom. “Daisies grow through anything,” Katy said, sounding like the world’s most wholesome space florist. “They remind us that magic is everywhere—even in a common flower or a billion-dollar spaceship ride.”
Pop star sings, activist floats, journalist plants a metaphorical flag, and the whole crew returns to Earth just in time for brunch. Girl power, gravity defiance, and ground-kissing gratitude—10/10 would space travel again.
