Katy Perry: Fans Aren’t Impressed by Her ‘Underwhelming’ Trip to Space

Katy Perry: Fans Aren’t Impressed by Her ‘Underwhelming’ Trip to Space
By [Your Name] – April 16, 2025

Pop superstar Katy Perry just added “astronaut” to her resume — sort of. On April 14, Perry spent 10 minutes floating in suborbital space aboard a commercial spaceflight. While the journey marked a personal milestone for the singer, fans online were… less than thrilled.

The space trip, arranged through a private company, was meant to be a moment of inspiration. Perry shared photos and videos of her in zero gravity, captioned with motivational messages like, “Reaching new heights — literally!” But despite the stunning visuals, the internet didn’t quite share her enthusiasm.

“10 minutes in space and that’s it? I’ve had more exciting Uber rides,” one user joked on X (formerly Twitter).
“I love Katy, but this just felt… empty. No message, no meaning, just vibes,” another commented.

Some fans were expecting more from the experience — maybe a live song from space, a meaningful message about the planet, or even a quirky Perry-style stunt. Instead, what they got was a short clip of her floating in silence and a few space selfies.

Critics didn’t hold back. “If you’re going to go to space, do something in space. Otherwise, what’s the point?” one post read, racking up thousands of likes.

Others defended the pop star, saying it was a bold step and a lifelong dream. “Let her live! Not everything has to be a performance,” one fan wrote. Still, the mixed reactions highlight the growing public fatigue around celebrity space tourism — flashy but often shallow.

Perry hasn’t responded to the criticism yet, but knowing her, she might just turn it into a music video or a meme. One thing’s for sure: even in space, you can’t escape the internet’s judgment.
