Katy Perry’s historic trip to space with Blue Origin was made even more special by the presence of her 4-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom, who was eagerly watching her mom’s journey from Earth. After returning from her incredible eight-minute flight on April 14, Perry shared a heartwarming moment with her daughter. Daisy, wearing her own mini space suit, beamed with excitement as she watched the capsule land.
During her time in space, Perry carried a daisy flower with her, a sweet tribute to her daughter. Upon her return, she held the flower up to the sky before giving it a tender kiss, symbolizing the connection between mother and child even across the vastness of space.
Perry, reflecting on the significance of the experience, told reporters, “This experience is second to being a mom.” She admitted that leaving Earth and her daughter behind was difficult, but she embraced the journey, trusting the universe to keep her loved ones safe. “To go to space is incredible, and I wanted to model courage, worthiness, and fearlessness,” she explained.
Ahead of her flight, Perry had humorously spoken about bringing “glam” to space and joked that the all-women crew would “put the ‘ass’ in astronaut.” Despite the light-hearted banter, her mission was about more than just adventure—it was about showing her daughter, and others, the power of courage and the pursuit of dreams.
Throughout the process, Perry kept fans updated on social media, sharing posts of her space suit, the countdown to launch, and more, allowing her followers to join in on the thrilling experience.
