Wendy’s brutal response to Katy Perry’s space trip exposed.
Wendy’s isn’t here for Katy Perry’s space era—and they made that crystal clear with one brutal tweet.
Katy Perry’s all-female space trip explained.
The jab came as Perry joined a groundbreaking, all-female crew on Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin NS-13 space mission.
The crew featured Gayle King, Lauren Sánchez, Amanda Nguyen, Aisha Bowe, and Kerianne Flynn—each notable in their own right.
The mission was meant to celebrate women in aerospace—and each spacesuit featured nods to the passengers’ careers.
Perry’s had a firework patch (obviously), while she brought a daisy for her daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom.
Lauren Sánchez’s suit had a fly, referencing her kids’ book “The Fly Who Flew to Space.”
Gayle King’s suit had a microphone on it—a sweet nod to her broadcasting career.
Despite those heartfelt details, backlash rolled in from fans and even fellow celebs.
Together, the six women became the first all-female team to launch into space since 1963.
But after their 11-minute flight, Twitter (or X) was far less starry-eyed than expected with Wendy’s taking a jab of their own.
Wendy’s history of controversy clarified.
So… why the beef? And where’s it really coming from? Let’s rewind a bit.
Wendy’s social media presence has long been a Gen Z-tuned roast machine, built on sarcasm and viral chaos.
They’ve thrown shots at McDonald’s ice cream machines, roasted Burger King’s buns, and even mocked Elon Musk.
As for Katy Perry, she’s no stranger to controversy either—from left shark memes to eyebrow-raising “American Idol” moments.
But pairing her with Bezos and a billionaire-funded space joyride? That’s a target that practically writes itself.
Especially during a week when inflation, layoffs, and student loan stress were all trending.
Add to that an 11-minute suborbital flight, and the internet was already locked and loaded.
Wendy’s clapback revealed.
After Perry returned from a brief—but historic—Blue Origin flight, the fast-food chain’s social media team went full savage.
“Can we send her back,” the official @Wendys account posted, clearly unimpressed with the pop star’s galactic adventure.
Wendy’s doubled down by retweeting a pic of Perry kissing the ground and quipped, “I kissed the ground and I liked it.”
The tweet was a pointed nod to her 2008 hit “I Kissed a Girl”—but this time, it hit way different.
When a user pointed out the trip was just 10 minutes, Wendy’s corrected them: “Don’t short change her—it was 11.”
Another fan commented, “Good one Wendy,” prompting the chain to volley back, “I’m a woman, send me to space.”
And just to keep the heat going, they added: “When we said women in STEM, this isn’t what we meant.”
Amy Schumer, Olivia Wilde, Emily Ratajkowski, and Olivia Munn were among the stars who gave the side-eye.
Some labeled it performative, others called it wasteful, and many just didn’t see the point.
And while Wendy’s didn’t clarify why Perry was singled out, she clearly became the social media scapegoat.
Silence from both camps amid Twitter firestorm.
As of now, reps for Perry and Wendy’s haven’t responded to requests for comment.
But Perry fans aren’t staying quiet—they’re flooding Wendy’s replies in defense of their “Teenage Dream” queen.
Others, however, are grabbing popcorn, calling the whole exchange “peak internet drama.”
As for Wendy’s? They’re still tweeting. Still roasting. And very much not sorry.
So if you’re wondering where the beef is… look no further than orbit.
