Lily Allen is walking back her criticism of Katy Perry’s Blue Origin space mission, admitting on her Miss Me? podcast that her earlier comments were rooted in “internalized misogyny.” Initially, Allen had slammed the 12-minute suborbital flight—funded by Jeff Bezos and featuring an all-female crew including Perry—as tone-deaf and performative, especially during a time of global financial strain. She mocked its framing as a feminist milestone and questioned the value of such a high-profile spectacle.
However, after some self-reflection, Allen publicly apologized to Perry during the April 28th episode of her podcast, acknowledging that her attack on the pop star was “completely unnecessary.” The internet has since been divided, with some applauding Allen’s accountability, while others argue she shouldn’t have backtracked. The incident has reignited debates around celebrity activism, performative feminism, and how criticism—especially among women—can sometimes mirror the very biases it seeks to challenge.
