Katy Perry joined an all-female crew on a 10-minute flight aboard Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin rocket, singing Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World" during the journey. The flight aimed to highlight the collective achievements and potential of women in space. As Perry sang, she reflected on the significance of the moment, explaining her choice of the song was not for personal glory but to celebrate unity and the beauty of the Earth. The crew, including figures like Gayle King and Lauren Sanchez, was focused on inspiring future generations of women in space exploration.
"I've covered that song in the past. Obviously my higher self is steering the ship. I had no clue I'd one day decide to sing a little bit of that in space."
"It's not about singing my songs. It's about a collective energy and making space for future women. It's about this wonderful world that we see right out there and appreciating it. This is all for the benefit of Earth."
