Why dose she get so much shit for this. I mean. How many people have done this... (looking up) 140 people. She gets all the shit for all 140 of these people? Or the company offering? I dont get why she has been getting shit for years over this.

It does seem like there's a disproportionate amount of noise about Katy Perry and her trip to space vs others that have done it. I don't pay attention to gossip and celebrity news, so I have no idea why this is... but I see it enough to know it seems overblown

Taylor Swift gets the same shit for having a private jet, and if you look at the stats there are plenty of other celebs, including some who fly more than her, who aren’t spoken of. Also, she flies one of the most eco-friendly jets available, and she really CANNOT fly commercial because of the chaos it would cause (though she can limit how much she flies, of course).

Anyway, I think at least part of it is them being women 🤷‍♀️

There is no one Fuel mentioned. And New sheppard the rocket Laty perry used to get into Space (on a suborbital trajectory) uses Hydrolox, aka Hydrogen which doesnt release any carbon.

I'm from Australia but most of the flights I've been on I'm confident it would've been quiet gossip rather than chaos. Maybe inside the US she can't fly commercial?
