“If you had told me I'd be part of the first all-female crew in space… I would have believed you”: Katy Perry is going to be blasted into space as part of an all-female Jeff Bezos rocket crew

Katy Perry goes into space.

Yes, we’ll get it over with early. The ‘Like A Firework’ (ex) hitmaker is going to ‘make us go oh, oh, oh as [she] shoots across the sky’. Blame/thank Jeff Bezos as, after sending a hapless 90-year-old William Shatner into space in 2021, his Galaxy Quest for seemingly random celebrity bums-on-rocket-seats continues unabated.

Now – despite both war and famine still going strong – we have Katy Perry lining up as part of a six-astronaut, all-woman crew on the next jaunt for his Amazon-fuelled Blue Origin spacecraft.
