Katy Perry’s 10-Minute “Space Travel” Leaves Lady Gaga and Hollywood Stars in Awe — Social Media Erupts with Reactions
Los Angeles, April 16, 2025
In a moment that blended pop culture with scientific wonder, global superstar Katy Perry made headlines today after completing a 10-minute suborbital space flight aboard Blue Origin’s New Shepard spacecraft. The historic trip sparked an online frenzy, with stars like Lady Gaga, Dua Lipa, and even Elon Musk sharing their shock, admiration, and playful envy across social media.
A Pop Star Beyond the Planet
Clad in a sleek, custom-designed spacesuit bedazzled with glittering constellations and the word Firework across the back, Perry joined four others on the privately-funded flight early Tuesday morning in West Texas.
The capsule soared past the Kármán line, giving Katy and her fellow crew members several minutes of weightlessness and a breathtaking view of the Earth below.
“It felt like my soul left my body for a second,” Perry said in a post-flight statement. “I floated, I cried, I laughed… I saw the curve of the Earth. I’ll never be the same.”
Hollywood Reacts
Moments after the livestream showed Perry safely landing back on Earth, Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok exploded with posts.
- Lady Gaga reposted the video with the caption: “Katy in space? ICONIC. Somebody beam me up next. 💫”
- Orlando Bloom, Perry’s fiancé, posted a heartfelt video: “Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it. You’re a true star, in every sense.”
- The Weeknd tweeted: “Katy Perry just did a space drop before I could even drop my new album.”
A Dream Years in the Making
This mission was not a sudden whim. Insiders say Perry has been fascinated with space since her “E.T.” music video. In interviews over the years, she’s mentioned wanting to go to space — even jokingly.
“She was one of the most enthusiastic passengers we’ve ever had,” a Blue Origin rep said. “Curious, brave, and absolutely thrilled at every stage.”
What’s Next?
After the flight, Perry teased “bringing space to the stage” in her next world tour. Fans are buzzing about a potential space-themed album, and rumored titles like Zero Gravity, Galactic Love, or Beyond the Stars have already gone viral.
Conclusion
Katy Perry’s journey into space may have lasted only 10 minutes, but the cultural impact has launched a new era — where music, fame, and space exploration intersect.
As Katy herself said before liftoff: “If I can reach the stars, so can you.”
