The 40-year-old was one of the six-woman crew, also made up of CBS Mornings presenter Gayle King, former rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, astronaut Amanda Nguyen and film producer Kerianne Flynn and Jeff Bezos’s partner Lauren Sanchez, to take part in the flight. A video of the crew was shared by Blue Origin on Twitter on Monday showing the six women as they reached zero gravity and were able to float around the spacecraft before looking at the camera and saying in unison, “taking up space”. Perry is also seen holding a daisy which she later held to the air after emerging from Bezos’s New Shepard NS-31, to honour her daughter Daisy, before kissing the floor. The singer performed a rendition Louis Armstrong’s What A Wonderful World as the crew entered space. Speaking after her return to Earth, the Roar singer said she had been inspired to write a song about the experience. She added: “I feel super connected to love, so connected to love.  “I think this experience has shown me you never know how much love is inside of you, like how much love you have to give and how loved you are until the day you launch.” Speaking about the tribute to her daughter, Perry explained: “Daisies are common flowers, but they grow through any condition, they go through cement, they go through cracks, they go through walls, they are resilient. “They are powerful, they are strong, they are everywhere. “Flowers are to me, god’s smile, but it’s also a reminder of our beautiful Earth and the flowers here, and god’s smile and the beautiful magic that is everywhere, all around us and even in a simple daisy. “So to really appreciate it and remember it and take care of it, protect it.”She could be heard yelling “oh my god” as she was blasted into space, after the singer was seen in the rocket as it pulled away from the gantry at the launch facilities in West Texas. Her fellow astronaut King, paid tribute to Perry’s decision to sing What A Wonderful World in space, saying she wanted to talk about the world, despite her crew urging her to sing Roar or Firework. Explaining her decision to sing the song, Perry said: “I’ve covered that song in the past, and obviously my higher self is always steering the ship, because I had no clue that one day, I would decide to sing a little bit of that in space.
