Pop Star Katy Perry Embarks on Historic Space Journey
Katy Perry recently became the perfect pop star for a space stunt. Alongside an all-female crew, she boarded Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin rocketship and traveled to the edge of space. The singer wore a custom-made spacesuit and held a daisy as a tribute to her daughter.
During her 10-minute and 21-second flight, Perry sang from her heart, recalling her childhood hymn “What a Wonderful World.” Her emotional performance was met with ridicule on social media, with some mocking her for not being in space long enough or appearing too solemn about the experience.
