Katy Perry’s recent adventure 11 minutes into space aboard Blue Origin has ignited a wave of memes and commentary across social media, drawing attention from fans and critics alike.

Wendy's fast-food chain couldn't resist joining the fun, tweeting humorous remarks about Perry's journey. However, after backlash from some followers, the company quickly clarified that their intentions were light-hearted, stating, "Wendy’s has a ton of respect for Katy Perry and her out-of-this-world talent."

Perry participated in the all-female crew flight alongside notable figures such as journalist Gayle King and Lauren Sanchez, Jeff Bezos' partner. As the group launched from Texas, Perry captured hearts when she kissed the ground upon landing, exclaiming her feeling of being "so connected to love," and even serenading her crew with Louis Armstrong’s classic, "What a Wonderful World."

However, amidst the celebrations, the flight faced criticism for its environmental impact and the potential implications for NASA employees. Actress Olivia Munn described the venture as "gluttonous," questioning its broader benefits for humanity.

Model and activist Emily Ratajkowski chimed in on TikTok, denouncing the flight as "beyond parody" given the current state of the world. She pointed out the considerable resources expended to send the crew to space.

Yet not everyone was negative. Reality star Khloe Kardashian praised the flight as a symbol of what dreams can achieve today, while Oprah Winfrey, shedding tears of pride for her friend Gayle King, celebrated the moment as a historical achievement.

In defense of the project, King asserted the significance of the flight in inspiring young women to pursue careers in STEM—a sentiment echoed by many excited fans, eager to ride the waves of empowerment sparked by this stellar event.
