Joe Rogan ripped into Katy Perry and her all-female Blue Origin space flight amid intense backlash over the brief trip aboard Jeff Bezos’ rocket.
“Hey Tim Dillion, I’m much better now that the ladies are back from space, thank you,” Rogan said at the beginning of his podcast released Saturday.
“It was very profound. I don’t know if you’ve seen Katy Perry talk about it, but she’s basically a guru now,” he said.
Last Monday, Perry rode alongside former NASA engineer Aisha Bowe, astronaut Amanda Nguyễn, CBS morning host Gayle King, film producer Kerianne Flynn, and the billionaire’s fiancée Lauren Sánchez.
Rogan mocked Perry for bringing up a daisy with her during her trip, which she flashed to the cameras as the crew floated around the capsule.
“She brought a daisy, which is super important. It shows you how quick the flight was,” Rogan said. “The dead daisy that’s like snipped from its life source was still alive or still vibrant.”
Perry brought the “simple flower” with her as a tribute to her daughter, Daisy, and a symbolic gesture.
“Daisies are common flowers, but they grow through every condition,” Perry said after the flight, calling them “resilient.”
