Katy Perry Launches Lifetimes Tour in Mexico City, Addresses Space Flight Backlash

Katy Perry launched her Lifetimes Tour in Mexico City shortly after her highly publicized Blue Origin space flight, which drew both mockery and criticism, with some detractors calling the trip a PR stunt. During her energetic show, Perry addressed her critics by asking the audience if anyone had ever called their dreams crazy, and embraced the space theme by inviting fans in astronaut suits onstage and performing space-inspired choreography while suspended in the air. Despite the backlash, Perry appeared undeterred, celebrating her experience and encouraging others not to let limits be placed on their dreams. The tour features elaborate costumes and performances referencing her recent space journey, including a recreation of her time in zero gravity. Perry also announced the cancellation of two upcoming shows in Guadalajara due to incomplete venue construction, expressing disappointment but emphasizing safety. Overall, Perry used her platform to promote resilience and inspiration in the face of negativity.
