Lorraine Kelly has blasted Katy Perry for the Blue Origin space trip in an explosive Good Morning Britain rant on Tuesday.

The presenter, 65, didn’t hold back when she touched upon when the singer, 40, and five other females travelled to space in Jeff Bezos’s rocket on April 14.

During a short appearance on Good Morning Britain to chat about what viewers could expect on her own show, she mentioned that her guest Joe Lycett could end up going to space to visit a place called Birmingham on the moon.

An intrigued Susanna Reid asked: ‘Is it like that Blue Origin flight? Where he goes up for a couple of minutes?’

Lorraine snapped back: ‘No. Don’t even get me started about that!

‘And he kisses the Earth?!,’ Susanna said.

Katy was part of the all female crew that took off on the morning of Monday 14 April from West Texas on board the Blue Origin – the space exploration company founded by Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos

Lorraine fumed: ‘Oh shh,’ to which Susanna asked: ‘Are you fuming about it?’

‘I’m fuming, fuming,’ she said back.

‘They cannot call themselves astronauts?

‘How can they call themselves astronauts when they were up on a jolly for 11 minutes.

‘And there already has been an all-women crew up in space anyway! Proper, proper astronauts.

‘It was ridiculous. A woman with her daisy, just shut up. Just shut up!’

Susanna joked: ‘I’m looking forward to your next interview with Katy Perry.’

Katy went into space with Kerianne Flynn, Lauren Sanchez, Aisha Bowe, Gayle King and Amanda Nguyen earlier this month

Katy last appeared on the ITV show back in November 2024.

The star sat down with Lorraine’s LA Correspondent Ross King and enjoyed some British tea together.

Katy was part of the all-female crew that took off on the morning of Monday 14 April from West Texas on board the Blue Origin – the space exploration company founded by Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos.

The fleet included the Roar singer, Gayle King, and Lauren Sanchez, as well as NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, film producer Kerianne Flynn, and activist Amanda Nguyen.

Despite the original purpose of the 11-minute expedition was seemingly harmless, it has since been described as ‘tone deaf’ and ’embarrassing’.

Perhaps the most ridiculed moment from last week’s event was when the pop star emerged from the Blue Origin capsule. She immediately stopped and held a daisy up to the sky before descending from the capsule, dropping to her knees and kissing the ground.

An inside source has called the criticism unexpected for the former American Idol judge and ‘disheartening’ for the rest of the all-female crew.

‘Katy doesn’t regret going to space. It was life-changing.

‘What she does regret is making a public spectacle out of it,’ the insider exclusively revealed to DailyMail.com.

The source admitted that Perry now regrets ‘kissing the ground’ after the flight as well as her ‘close-up camera moments’ inside the capsule – where she held a daisy up to the camera, promoted the setlist to her upcoming tour, and sang the lyrics to ‘What a Wonderful World’ all while suspended in microgravity.

Perry waxed poetic about feeling ‘super connected to love,’ thanked a reporter who called her an astronaut, and declared how their all-female journey ‘has always been about love and belonging.’

‘It’s not about singing my songs. It’s about a collective energy in there. It’s about us. It’s about making space for future women and taking up space and belonging,’ she said in a post-flight interview.

‘And it’s about this wonderful world that we see right out there and appreciating it. This is all for the benefit of Earth.’

Good Morning Britain airs weekdays on ITV from 6am and is available to stream on ITVX.
