Katy Perry will soon travel to space. The 40-year-old singer has been confirmed to join an all-female crew for Blue Origin’s space tourism mission.
The news was announced by Jeff Bezos’ company last Thursday (27th), which also revealed that the launch of the all-female crew will take place in the second half of 2025.
In addition to Katy Perry, the crew also includes Gayle King, host of CBS Mornings, journalist and businesswoman Lauren Sánchez, Aisha Bowe, a former NASA rocket scientist, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen, and film producer Kerianne Flynn.
The launch will mark the 11th space tourism mission of Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket, which has already taken 52 people to the Kármán Line, 100 km from Earth, the boundary between Earth’s atmosphere and space.
