Katy Perry is rising above the haters after she was criticised for her Blue Origin Journey.
The I Kissed A Girl hitmaker recently took part in the first all-female private space mission on the Jeff Bezos-owned venture. Joined by others like the Amazon founder’s fiancee Lauren Sanchez and broadcaster Gayle King, Perry headed out on the eight-minute journey. They broke through the Earth’s atmosphere and then came safely back down.

However, the pop princess has shot back at the haters, saying that she is “grateful” for her fans and supporters. Recently, Perry embarked on her Lifetimes Tour, which also provoked some viral heat.
Writing on Instagram, she said, “Please know I am ok, I have done a lot work around knowing who I am, what is real and what is important to me.”
My therapist said something years ago that has been a game changer, ‘No one can make you believe something about yourself that you don’t already believe about yourself,’ and if I ever do have any feelings about it then it’s an opportunity to investigate the feeling underneath it,” Perry continued.
Who were the most famous critics of Katy Perry going to space?
A string of famous faces came out to point out the star-studded, multi-billion dollar venture into space.
On one of the many viral reactions the mission prompted, actress and director Olivia Wilde wrote on her Instagram story, “Billion dollars bought some good memes, I guess.”
