I’m sure you’re well aware by now that Katy Perry was among the group of women who briefly flew to space this week as part of a mission run by Jeff Bezos’s company Blue Origin.
Lauren Sánchez, Gayle King, producer Kerianne Flynn, and scientists Aisha Bowe and Amanda Nguyễn were also aboard the spacecraft for the 11-minute trip.
After returning safely, Katy notably claimed that the controversial trip was for “the benefit of Earth.” She said, “It’s about a collective energy and making space for future women. It’s about this wonderful world that we see right out there and appreciating it. This is all for the benefit of Earth.”

As you can probably imagine, tons of people have criticized the mission — including celebrities like Emily Ratajkowski, who specifically called out how destructive it was.
