Bezos to Send His Fiancée, Katy Perry, and CBS’s Gayle King into Space on All-Female Blue Origin Flight
Breitbart ^ | 2-27-25 | Alana Mastrangelo

Posted on 03/01/2025 6:29:19 AM PST by dynachrome

Singer Katy Perry, CBS Mornings co-host Gayle King, and Jeff Bezos’ fiancé Lauren Sanchez will blast off into space on a Blue Origin rocket as part of an all-female passenger crew, the company announced this week.

Blue Origin’s 11th human spaceflight as part of its New Shepard program, as well as the 31st in its history, is set to launch this spring, the company said in a Thursday announcement.

“This is the first all-female flight crew since Valentina Tereshkova’s solo spaceflight in 1963,” Blue Origin noted.

In addition to Perry, King, and Sanchez, former NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, bioastronautics research scientist Amanda Nguyen, and nonprofit leader Kerianne Flynn will also be on the rocket.

Blue Origin also noted that it was Sanchez “who brought the mission together” to launch on the New Shepard rocket.

Hopefully, it won’t be that “time of the month” for them.

How are untrained passengers a crew? Wouldn’t they be more of a payload?

When she needs help from a co-pilot is when things start to get interesting...

Well, that’s one way to get rid of an unwanted girlfriend.

They all receive “training”—a whole fourteen hours:

That is when the smart ones flee and are never heard from again...

What happened to Katey Perry... She used to fill out that top with some to spare.

She's a cup-half-empty kind of girl.

Maybe he is getting tired of Lauren?

That was my first thought too.

Lauren Sanchez is Bezos’ fiance. Poorly constructed headline.

Press release:

“We meant for this to be a suborbital flight but a malfunction put the craft into orbit. We are now trying to figure out how to rescue the astronauts.”
