Katy Perry will "shoot across the sky" with Gayle King and Lauren Sánchez, along with a NASA rocket scientist, bioastronautics research scientist and a film producer.

Katy Perry is going to space. The award-winning "E.T." and "Firework" singer will fly on a firework of her own when she joins the first all-female crew to launch on a Blue Origin New Shepard rocket later this year.

Pop star Katy Perry will blast off into space as part of an upcoming all-women flight on Blue Origin's New Shepherd rocket. The Firework singer will be joined by Blue Origin owner Jeff Bezos's fiancee Lauren Sanchez,

Now she'll be boarding Blue Origin 's New Shepard rocket, along with a few other celebrity and high-profile crewmates: CBS Mornings' Gayle King and Jeff Bezos' fiancée Lauren Sánchez, who founded Black Ops Aviation, an aerial film and production company.

"The NS-31 mission is historic as it marks the first crewed space mission composed entirely of women since Valentina Tereshkova's solo flight in 1963."

The fiancé of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos certainly has an impressive phone book. Lauren Sanchez held a video call with the likes of talk show queen Gayle King and Grammy winner Katy Perry.
