It looks like Katy Perry and an exciting group of trailblazing women—Lauren Sanchez, Gayle King, Amada Nguyen, Aisha Bowen, and Karianne Flynn—are preparing to make history with a trip into space aboard Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin rocket. The flight, which is set to take off from Texas at 8:30 am local time on Monday, will last for about 11 minutes, but it’s packed with memorable moments already.
In an interview with Elle, the women shared their thoughts and preparations for the out-of-this-world adventure. Katy Perry, known for her creative and bold personality, said she would be bringing something that has life in it for the journey. Her reason? “Just to remind us how precious the Earth is.” It’s a poignant gesture, showing her deep appreciation for the planet as she heads into space.
When asked about what each of them would bring, Gayle King mentioned bringing sentimental items, such as pictures and something meaningful for her grandson, while Sanchez joked that Perry could just sing in space. As the conversation turned toward music, Flynn suggested that Perry could become the first artist to perform outside of Earth. Katy responded playfully, saying, “I feel like I should.” So, fans may very well be in for a future space performance—talk about taking your artistry to new heights!
In true star fashion, it seems that glam will be a key part of the space journey. Sanchez joked about the importance of being “glam” before the flight, even hinting at lash extensions flying in the capsule. Perry chimed in, calling the trip “finally glam” and quipping, “If I could take glam with me, I would.” She added humorously that they would be putting the “a**” in astronaut—ready to make their spaceflight stylish and fun!
It’s clear these women are ready to break barriers in more ways than one, combining exploration, fun, and glam all in one thrilling adventure. With Katy Perry possibly becoming the first artist to sing in space, this trip is sure to be talked about for years to come!
