The all-woman Blue Origin flight has been a public spectacle. And not for anything good. The internet has been at Katy Perry's throat for her frivolous flight, and she's even been on record saying that she regrets making the event such a public affair.

The singer has said how life-changing the trip was. No one has been contesting that being in space changes one's perspective. However, there's something a little sour about the 1% giving far too much money to the 0.1% and bragging about the 'journey' to their fans.

Well, the astronaut has had more things to say about the hate she's been given online. As reported by The Daily Mail, Katy Perry addressed the crowd at the last stop on her Lifetimes world tour.

This was her first performance since the space spectacle, and it seems she changed up her performance to reflect her new status as an astronaut.

Katy Perry Responded To Haters While Posing With NASA Backup Dancers

According to the outlet, Katy Perry said "Has anyone ever called your dreams crazy?" She also had a couple backup dancers wearing blue NASA jumpsuits, whom she posed and took a selfie with.

So, let's get this straight. She regrets making a public spectacle of her space journey, yet pulls all this out of the bag on her tour?

That's the sort of insincerity that has people up in arms.

What rubs me the wrong way is how she calls the journey her "dream," as though she's been striving toward that moment all of her life. I'm certain this isn't the case. Although I can't say for sure that Katy Perry hasn't always dreamed of being in space, this isn't exactly something she can say she's been striving toward all her life.

A mega-rich guy had a rocket, and she paid to get in. Certainly an incredible moment, but her dream? Come on.

For her, it was a purchase. It's a dream for her fans, however, who will only ever be able to visit the stars when their eyes are closed.
