Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom's Daughter Daisy Sparks Buzz As She Watches Mom Return from Space

The "Hot N Cold" singer's return from space turned into a touching family moment as her little girl watched the historic landing in awe.

Katy Perry made history on Monday, April 14, as part of Blue Origin's first all-female space crew. Waiting on the ground was her 4-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom, who became the center of attention as she proudly watched her mother descend from space.

The little girl, dressed in a miniature astronaut costume, looked up at the sky with a bright smile as the capsule touched down. The moment marked a professional milestone for Perry and also a deeply personal one.

In a symbolic gesture, the singer carried a small daisy flower into space, which she held to the sky after landing. After touching down, she reflected on her journey, stating, "I feel super connected to love."

The 39-year-old singer-songwriter shares her daughter with fiancé Orlando Bloom, 48.

"This experience is second to being a mom," Perry told reporters after returning to Earth. "That's why it was hard for me to go because that's all my love right there, and I have to surrender and trust that the universe is going to take care of me and protect me and also my family and daughter."

The "Firework" songstress added, "I am full up from being able to get that gift of being a mom, and to go to space is incredible, and I wanted to model courage, worthiness, and fearlessness."

After experiencing weightlessness, the crew returned to their seats — and Perry sang Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World."

Daisy Bloom's appearance at the landing site sparked a flurry of online reactions, with many fans remarking on her looks and expressing joy at seeing her in the public eye.

One fan stated, "She looks just [sic] her dad!" Another commented, "What a cutie pie she is." One fan observed, "Daisy looks like her father….."

Meanwhile, another said, "What a sweet face Daisy has. Happy to see her mama coming back down." Another wrote, "So cute first time seeing her [sic]."

On Instagram, fans echoed similar sentiments. One fan stated, "Looks like Orlando in the face [sic]!" Another commented, "Finally get to see Daisy [sic]." Meanwhile, one person shared, "what an angelic face [sic]."

Perry's personal milestone was part of a larger historic moment for space exploration. According to Blue Origin's official statement on April 14, 2025, the flight marked the 11th human spaceflight for the New Shepard program.

The all-female astronaut crew consisted of Aisha Bowe, Amanda Nguyễn, Gayle King, Katy Perry, Kerianne Flynn, and Lauren Sánchez.

Their successful mission was the latest milestone in a program that has now flown 58 people to space — including four individuals who have completed the journey twice.

Phil Joyce, Senior Vice President of New Shepard, commended the significance of the mission. "What a privilege to witness this crew of trailblazers depart the capsule today," he said.

"Each of these women is a storyteller who will use their voices — individually and together — to channel their life-changing experience today into creating lasting impact that will inspire people across our planet for generations. Thank you to this remarkable crew for uplifting so many on their historic journey toward the stars and back," concluded Joyce.

The aerospace company even posted a complete flight replay on its official website.

Blue Origin officially announced the crew lineup on February 27, 2025. This milestone mission highlighted the growing presence of female pioneers in the space industry, with all six crew members representing different fields, from music and media to science and social activism.

Meanwhile, Perry, known globally for her chart-topping hits and groundbreaking performances, has added space traveler to her extensive resume.

She is Capitol Records' top-selling female artist and has accumulated over 115 billion streams throughout her career.

Beyond her musical achievements, Perry is also recognized for her humanitarian work. She serves as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and supports children in underserved communities through her Firework Foundation.

On February 28, Perry shared the incredible news on social media, expressing her excitement and sense of purpose for the flight in a heartfelt Instagram post.

Reflecting on her journey, she wrote, "If you had told me that I would be part of the first ever all-female crew in space, I would have believed you."

She continued by sharing how her childhood imagination fueled her dreams despite growing up with limited means.

Perry added that her determination to inspire her daughter played a crucial role in her decision to join the mission. "That's why this opportunity is so incredible — so that I can show all of the youngest & most vulnerable among us to reach for the stars, literally and figuratively."

"I work hard to live my life that way still, and I am motivated more than ever to be an example for my daughter that women should take up space (pun intended)," expressed the "Roar" singer.

With her first spaceflight journey done and dusted, Perry is also getting ready to launch her latest musical journey, "The Lifetimes Tour," which kicks off this month. The award-winning singer's year ahead promises to be one of her most ambitious yet.

Besides Perry, the space mission included five other aspiring female figures with notable profiles. Aisha Bowe brought a strong scientific background to the mission.

A former NASA rocket scientist and entrepreneur, Bowe is the CEO of STEMBoard, an engineering firm recognized on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies. She also founded LINGO, an educational platform equipping students with essential tech skills.

Of Bahamian descent, Bowe hoped her journey from community college to space would inspire young people in the Bahamas and the world to pursue their ambitions.

Amanda Nguyen's resume blends science and social activism. As a bioastronautics researcher and Harvard graduate, Nguyen has contributed to projects at NASA, MIT, and the Harvard Center for Astrophysics.

Her work includes research on NASA's final shuttle mission, STS-135, and the Kepler exoplanet mission. Beyond science, Nguyen is a Nobel Peace Prize nominee and a TIME Woman of the Year for her advocacy on behalf of sexual violence survivors.

As the first Vietnamese and Southeast Asian woman to go to space, her flight symbolizes hope and reconciliation between Vietnam and the United States.

Veteran journalist Gayle King adds a powerful media voice to the group. Known for her work as co-host of "CBS Mornings," King is recognized for her ability to engage in thoughtful, meaningful conversations.

Alongside her journalism career, she hosts "Gayle King in the House" on SiriusXM and serves as editor-at-large for "Oprah Daily." King shared her excitement about the flight, explaining that even though the idea of space travel was intimidating, she was eager to embrace the adventure.

CBS Mornings even dedicated a special Instagram post to celebrate King, which read in part, "Our very own @gayleking is going where few have gone before — aboard a historic @blueorigin flight into space.... Tune in this spring to watch Gayle take to the skies."

Kerianne Flynn brings her creative and philanthropic spirit to the team. After a fashion and human resources career, Flynn turned her attention to nonprofit work and film production.

She has served on the boards of organizations like The High Line and Hudson River Park. As a producer, her films — "This Changes Everything" (2018) and "LILLY" (2024) — have explored gender equity and fair pay. Flynn hoped her spaceflight would inspire her son, Dex, and encourage young dreamers to pursue their explorations.

Lauren Sánchez, who played a key role in bringing the mission together, is no stranger to aviation. An Emmy Award-winning journalist, pilot, and Vice Chair of the Bezos Earth Fund, Sánchez founded Black Ops Aviation, the first female-owned aerial production company.

She also authored the bestselling children's book "The Fly Who Flew to Space," released in 2024. Reflecting on the upcoming flight, Sánchez called the opportunity "even bigger" than her childhood dream of becoming a pilot.

In an Instagram post, Sánchez expressed her pride in flying alongside such accomplished women, "I am beyond excited to share the news of my @BlueOrigin space flight this spring and the fearless explorers who are coming with me! I really see this group as explorers, and storytellers, each of us about to be changed by a remarkable view of our beautiful planet. The countdown starts now!"

To date, Blue Origin has sent 52 people above the Kármán line, the internationally recognized boundary of space.

The company, founded by Jeff Bezos, envisions a future where millions of people can live and work in space while helping to preserve Earth — its "blue origin." Bezos has described this vision simply, "It's this generation's job to build a road to space, so that future generations can unleash their creativity."

As Blue Origin's historic flight captures global attention, many draw parallels to Valentina Tereshkova, who became the first woman in space in 1963.

Tereshkova, a textile worker and skydiving enthusiast from Russia, blazed a trail for women in space exploration. Now, more than 60 years later, the NS-31 crew has built on that legacy by becoming the first all-female team to fly into space.

With each of these women bringing their unique stories, skills, and voices to the mission, the NS-31 flight has become more than a scientific achievement.

It is a cultural milestone that blends science, media, activism, and art into one shared experience — one that will inspire future generations to dream beyond the sky.
