Katy Perry shares video before going into space

Pop superstar Katy Perry is living out a lifelong dream—literally. The “Firework” singer announced she’s heading to space tomorrow.

April 14th, as part of Blue Origin’s first-ever all-female crew, and she’s radiating excitement. On Instagram, Perry shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse of her journey, from training sessions to the sleek capsule she’ll ride in.

“I’ve dreamt of going to space for 15 years, and tomorrow that dream becomes a reality!” Perry gushed in a video, dressed head-to-toe in a sharp blue flight suit. She’ll join five other trailblazing women—dubbed the “Taking Up Space Crew”—aboard Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin rocket, set to launch bright and early at 7 a.m. CT from West Texas.

Perry didn’t hold back her enthusiasm, joking about belting out hits in zero gravity. “I’ve got to sing in space!” she laughed, showing off her seat (number 2, to be exact) inside the capsule. The crew’s cheeky name, she explained, carries a double meaning: “That phrase now has a double entendre,” she teased, nodding to their mission to shatter ceilings—both literal and figurative.

The milestone marks the first all-female space crew since 1963, and Perry’s star-studded teammates include Jeff Bezos’ fiancée and philanthropist Lauren Sanchez, veteran TV journalist Gayle King, and three other accomplished women. For Perry, the journey isn’t just about checking off a bucket-list item—it’s proof that “if you believe in your dreams, that’s how you make them come true.”

Fans flooded her comments with support, cheering on the crew as they prepare to make history. After years of singing about cosmic love and resilience, Katy Perry is finally getting her own interstellar moment—and this time, the fireworks are real.

Katy Perry may be a global pop icon, but at home, she’s simply “Mom” to her adorable daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom. Born on August 26, 2020, Daisy is the first child of Perry and her fiancé, Orlando Bloom. The couple, who got engaged in 2019, have kept their little girl mostly out of the spotlight, sharing only rare glimpses of her.

Who is Katy Perry’s Daughter?

As of 2024, Daisy Dove is 3 years old, growing up in a world of music, love, and (no doubt) plenty of Disney fairy tales—thanks to her dad’s Pirates of the Caribbean legacy.

Rare Photos of Daisy Dove Bloom

While Katy and Orlando are private about their family life, they’ve occasionally shared sweet moments with Daisy. In one heartwarming Katy Perry daughter photo, the singer cradled her newborn in a black-and-white snapshot, captioning it, “Daisy Dove Bloom—proof that there is still pure love and light in this world.”

Perry and Bloom, who started dating in 2016, have had a whirlwind romance filled with adventures—from red-carpet appearances to raising their little girl together. Though they’ve faced ups and downs, their bond remains strong, with Perry even joking that Daisy is their “biggest collaboration yet.”

Why the Name Daisy Dove?

The name Daisy Dove Bloom is as whimsical as her famous parents. “Daisy” symbolizes innocence and joy, while “Dove” represents peace—fitting for a child born during a turbulent year (2020).
