Katy Perry Promises to Bring Glam to Space in All-Female Blue Origin Mission

 

Katy Perry is preparing to make history—and a bold fashion statement—as she joins Blue Origin’s first all-female spaceflight. The 40-year-old pop star, known for her extravagant style, declared that she plans to “put the ‘ass’ in astronaut” as she gears up for the upcoming launch.

 

 

Perry will be part of a six-woman crew for the 31st mission of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos’ New Shepard rocket. Joining her on the journey are CBS News anchor Gayle King, Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sánchez, former NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen, and film producer Kerianne Flynn. The highly anticipated launch is scheduled for April 14.

 

 

In a lively interview with Elle, Perry emphasized the importance of looking her best in space. “Space is going to finally be glam,” she told the magazine. “If I could take glam up with me, I would do that. We are going to put the ‘ass’ in astronaut.”

 

 

Bowe, an aerospace engineer who has long dreamed of going to space, shared that she took her own beauty preparations seriously. To ensure her hairstyle could withstand the conditions of space travel, she performed a skydiving test in Dubai. “I also wanted to test out my hair and make sure that it was okay. So I skydived in Dubai with similar hair to make sure I would be good—took it for a dry run,” she said.

 

Meanwhile, King, the most nervous of the group about the flight, expressed concern about whether their eyelash extensions would stay on during the journey. Sánchez, 55, reassured her with confidence. “Mine are glued on. They’re good,” she said.

 

Nguyen, who studied astrophysics at Harvard before becoming a civil rights activist, supported the idea that the crew should feel empowered to embrace both science and beauty. “I think it’s so important for people to see us like that,” she explained. “This dichotomy of engineer and scientist, and then beauty and fashion. We contain multitudes. Women are multitudes.” She added, “I’m going to be wearing lipstick.”

 

Alongside their beauty preparations, the women were given the opportunity to bring personal items with them on the trip. Bowe revealed she would be carrying a flag from the Apollo 12 mission back into space. Sánchez decided to bring a stuffed animal from her children’s book The Fly Who Flew to Space, while King opted for a more musical touch, planning to take a playlist for their celestial adventure.

 

The idea of Perry performing in space quickly gained enthusiasm among the group, with the crew encouraging her to sing once they reach orbit.

 

While their mission is short—lasting only 11 minutes—the women have partnered with universities and scientific organizations to conduct a few experiments during their journey. The launch, marking New Shepard’s 11th human flight, is set to take place in the morning on April 14.

I believe, looking at all of you, you would be replacing the "ass" with "Botox": Botoxtronaut.

I guess it is bad to kind of hope that this will be an unsuccesful mission .

6 women going up in a thing that looks like a male member.

Who's going to drive?

 

I hope there's an autopilot. 

It's pretty obvious Bezos is a boob-boy.  Maybe he'll go into their dressing rooms unannounced, like that beauty pageant guy does.

Katy should take R Brand with her up there, and throw him out of the capsule -- she might get a humanitarian award if she did.

 

We'd be a lot better off to quit trying to go into space and concentrate our efforts and resources on ceasing to destroy the planet we live on. 😞

Oh dear, does anyone take that loser seriously- going into space and thinks her hairstyle is important

 

BTW, 11 minutes is not worthy of anything.

 

PS, they may be all women, but on a craft designed and built by men, and they won't be in control. It's just a publicity stunt by a rich loser.

Sadly the sheeple will lap it up as a giant leap for womankind

You can be sure they are not in control. Takes years to become an astronaut, and hair and eyelashes are not part of the training. This farce should have blasted off before 1200 on April 1.

Yeah, if it just emits a giant fart and doesn't lift off it would be ironic.

Yeah, with any of these clowns in control it would hit the launch tower.

 

I guess Perry is trying desperately to revive a failing ( ? failed ) career as a somewhat average songstress by taking part in a publicity show.

While their mission is short... lol there is no "mission" I skimmed the article but so long as she or some sucker is paying for it why not?

Hope it is a one way ticket and she does not come back.

Katy's net worth around US$400 million.  But I doubt Bezos is charging them anything.

 

But these days whenever I hear about stuff like this I think of that deep-sea tragedy a few years ago.  I saw them on teevee putting in the bolts to seal the doors and thought "ummmm....."

She's done.

 

Her looks are fading.

 

Woke ideology is fading.

 

All that's left is strapping herself to a phallic symbol and lunching herself into space. 😀

But not you, no Sir! You see right through this giant pr stunt from your perch high up, looking down on all the pathetic sheeple, not sounding like a bitter old fart at all.

No Sir, not at all!

So cool

Dumb tarts and a Willy rocket.

Yeah, she's so done. Granted, she's got 400 million $ but who cares when she's also done.

Neil Armstrong 1969:  "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind".

I'm sure there will be an 'Only Fans' page entitled 'See how naked nom behave in zero gravity'

It's probably longer than most on here could give her.

Wonder if he asked MacKenzie to go.

I'm under 50 and have a quiff like Morrissey. 

This is just tacky when her ex husband is about to go to jail.

 

Katy, I thought you had class, after I saw the California girls video.

Are you really doing the "my daddy's richer/bigger/stronger than yours"? Really???

So I guess your mental age is somewhere between 5 and 8 then.

No.

 

I'm doing the "just because you are rich doesn't mean you are good" thing.

 

I would have thought that was obvious to anyone with a 3 digit IQ.
