The former American Idol personality, alongside CBS Mornings anchor Gayle King, filmmaker Kerianne Flynn, civil rights advocate Amanda Nguyen, former NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, and Jeff Bezos’ fiancée, Lauren Sánchez, achieved a historical milestone as the first all-female spaceflight crew since Russian cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova’s solo mission in 1963.

Wendy’s Response to Katy Perry’s Return

While the space launch garnered mixed reactions, the Wendy’s account responded to Perry’s return to Earth on X by quipping, “Can we send her back?”

Later that day, Wendy’s posted a photograph of Perry appearing to kiss the ground upon her return to Earth, accompanied by the caption, “I kissed the ground and i liked it,” referencing her popular song.

When a follower remarked that Perry’s time in space was “for like 10 minutes,” Wendy’s retorted, “Don’t short change her it was 11 minutes.”

Background on Perry and Dr. Luke Controversy

Beyond the space flight discourse, Kesha’s social media post emerges nearly seven months after Perry addressed criticism for her collaboration with Dr. Luke (born Lukasz Gottwald).

The producer has been embroiled in a protracted legal dispute with Kesha following her allegations of drugging and sexual assault in 2005. (Dr. Luke has denied these accusations and was never convicted.)

Perry’s Comments on Dr. Luke Collaboration

“I understand that it initiated numerous discussions,” Perry explained during a September 2024 episode of the “Call Her Daddy“ podcast. “And he was among many collaborators I worked with.”

The musician emphasized that her music “originates from my own perspective.”

“The reality is, I composed these songs based on my life experiences and personal growth, and he was one of the individuals who assisted in facilitating that,” she clarified. “One of the writers, one of the producers.”
