Lily Allen Apologizes to Katy Perry for ‘Mean’ Space Flight Comments: ‘It Was My Own Internalized Misogyny’
Lily Allen apologized to Katy Perry for her "mean" comments about the latter's space flight, saying it was "my own internalized misogyny."
More than a week after she slammed the pop star’s participation in Blue Origin’s first-ever all-women rocket flight as “out of touch,” joining in on a wave of criticism related to the expedition, the “Smile” singer shared an apology on the latest episode of her Miss Me? Allen was just one of several public figures who criticized the Blue Origin flight following its 11-minute trip on April 14, during which Perry, Gayle King, Lauren Sanchez and more passengers hurtled approximately 62 miles above Earth to space. While the “Firework” singer has maintained that the trip was an empowering feat for women — “It’s about making space for future women and taking up space and belonging,” Perry told press immediately after touching down — stars such as Olivia Munn, Olivia Wilde, Emily Ratajkowski and more have countered that it was actually a waste of resources.
