Katy Perry has addressed criticism she’s received over her historic Blue Origin space flight and her Lifetimes Tour. The 40-year-old singer took to Instagram to respond to negativity on social media, saying the internet can be a “dumping ground for unhinged and unhealed” people.
Perry began by thanking her fan sites for their support, calling it a “beautiful and wild journey together.” She assured fans she’s okay and has done work to understand herself, including a therapist’s advice that “no one can make you believe something about yourself that you don’t already believe.”
The singer also highlighted the positive interactions she’s had with her fans, saying “what’s real is seeing your faces every night” and feeling their warmth. Perry acknowledged she’s not perfect and has made mistakes, but continues to learn from them.
Her comments come after criticism over the Blue Origin space flight and her tour. The historic flight drew attention due to its cost and privatization of space travel, with some celebrities speaking out about it. Later, Perry faced backlash online for her choreography, with some calling it “embarrassing” and “cringe.”
