Just 30 minutes ago, famous actor Orlando Bloom – husband of singer Katy Perry – caused a stir on social networks when he revealed a surprising piece of information: Katy Perry had just completed an 11-minute space flight with Blue Origin, but after that experience, she affirmed that she would “never return to space again.”
An experience that was not like a dream
In a quick interview after the event, Orlando Bloom shared:
“Katy was very excited and curious. She used to think that space travel was a miracle, a breakthrough. But after 11 minutes in orbit with Blue Origin, she returned with a completely different feeling: overwhelmed, insecure and uncomfortable.”
According to Bloom, the flight was carried out within the framework of a special program for celebrities, and Katy Perry was one of the few artists selected to participate. However, instead of feeling the excitement and adventure she expected, the “Firework” singer was left panicking because of the feeling of weightlessness and the extremely “isolated” scene in space.
“There is nothing as sacred as the Earth”
After landing safely, Katy Perry was said to have burst into tears because she was so emotional. A source close to her recounted:
“She was speechless for a few minutes after unbuckling her seatbelt. She said she had never felt so small. Not because of the grandeur of the universe, but because of the isolation. Katy said that the Earth – with all its sounds, smells, feelings – was more sacred than any other planet out there.”
Even while preparing to fly, Katy Perry remained calm and confident. But according to Orlando, it was the moment the ship left the atmosphere that completely “disillusioned” her. Although the trip was described as safe and technically successful, the mental experience was not pleasant.
Blue Origin and the controversial flights
Blue Origin – the space company founded by billionaire Jeff Bezos – has made many short flights that took celebrities into orbit for a few minutes. However, not everyone has felt positive. Katy Perry’s case has raised the question: Are humans really ready for life in space, or is it still just a pipe dream?
Many netizens have expressed sympathy for Katy, saying that not everyone is suited to leaving Earth, even for a short time. Some even praised Perry for daring to speak her mind, instead of painting everything rosy as is often seen in the media.
Conclusion
The short 11-minute trip may have completely changed the way Katy Perry views space – and even life on Earth. While many people still dream of alien wonders, Katy’s story is a reminder that sometimes, what we need to appreciate… is where we are.
