Katy Perry went to space — and somehow crash-landed back into public hate.
Like… how did we get here? One minute she’s posing in a blue jumpsuit for Blue Origin’s “girlboss in the galaxy” spaceflight, and the next, the internet’s treating her like she launched herself into irrelevance. Again.
Let’s break down what the hell is going on.
🚀 From Stargirl to Space Clown?
So Katy Perry was part of Blue Origin’s latest “all-women” space tourism stunt — alongside Gayle King, Lauren Sánchez (Jeff Bezos’ fiancée), and a few others. And instead of everyone going, “Wow, women in space!” people were like, “Is this feminism… or a PR fever dream?”
Katy was extra. Screaming, filming everything, waving like she was on a parade float in zero gravity. She even did a whole pre-launch glam moment. And the vibe online was: girl what are you doing.
💅 Performative Feminism = Activated
Let’s be real — this wasn’t a NASA mission. This was a billionaire-funded 10-minute sky cruise designed to sell the idea that rich women doing rich people things somehow counts as empowering.
Online spaces instantly clocked it. TikTok, Reddit, and X (Twitter if you’re over 35) were flooded with takes like:
“This isn’t feminism, it’s influencer space cosplay.”
“Using women’s empowerment to sell luxury space rides is wild.”
“Why is Katy Perry screaming like she just met a Minion?”
Katy, unfortunately, became the face of it all. Because she’s the loudest. And people have not forgotten her past PR fumbles.
🧠 People Haven’t Really Forgiven Her
Katy’s had a weird decade. That whole “woke pop phase” flopped. “Swish Swish” was a meme. She hosted American Idol, dropped an NFT, tried a Vegas residency… and now, she’s shouting in a spaceship.
She keeps reinventing herself in ways that feel more like market tests than personal growth. So when she does something loud — like this — the backlash is extra sharp. It feels like she’s trying too hard to be relevant again, and people can smell it.
🧃 Fame Fatigue Is Real
We’re in an era where people hate try-hard celebrity branding. We want lowkey, unbothered, mysterious queens. Not pop stars yelling in space like it’s 2010 again.
Even fans were like, “girl pls,” while casuals rolled their eyes and scrolled past her zero-gravity TikToks.
And in the middle of all this, Blue Origin’s whole “empowerment” narrative just felt… forced. Like a Hallmark card wrapped around a rocket.
🎤 So… What Now?
To be fair, Katy Perry didn’t ask to become the face of fake feminism. But she leaned all the way into it — with the glitz, the screams, and the influencer energy. And when your career has been one long rollercoaster of trying to stay cool… it’s not a good look.
She’ll bounce back. She always does.
But maybe next time… don’t try to rebrand as a feminist icon from orbit.
