Katy Perry is under fire once again for her recent jaunt into space aboard the Blue Origin flight on April 15, with critics highlighting her past warnings about climate change and contrasting them with her decision to participate in the venture.

The pop star was among a group of six women, including Jeff Bezos’ fiancee Lauren Sanchez and CBS News reporter Gayle King, who took part in the brief 10-minute journey on Bezos’ spacecraft. While her daughter’s charming reaction to the trip went viral, the excursion has provoked a significant backlash, drawing ire from fellow celebrities as well.

Perry has been the target of ridicule from competitors and businesses alike, and despite attempts by those involved with the rocket to defend the mission, the criticism seems to be growing.

At 40 years old, the singer is facing harsh reproach for touting the mission as environmentally beneficial, particularly in light of her previous remarks and activism regarding global warming coming back into focus, reports the Express US.

As a former UNICEF goodwill ambassador, Perry delivered a report on climate change in 2015, where she declared that human-induced climate change was “hurting children around the world”.

“Today, we’re seeing more extreme weather everywhere, and as a California girl, I’m not the only one experiencing drought,” Perry stated in a video that has recently resurfaced, adding fuel to the current situation.
