Taylor Swift Has No Interest in a Trip to ‘Cold, Scary’ Space

Taylor Swift is going to pass on the possibility of space exploration.

The Life of a Showgirl singer confessed during a conversation with BBC Radio 2’s Scott Mills that she’s never considered going to space like fellow pop star Katy Perry.

During Swift’s The Scott Mills Breakfast Show interview, which aired Monday, Oct. 6, Mills asked if the Grammy would go to space, but she quickly replied, “Never!” 

“Why would I do that? There’s no reason to do that,” she said. “I don’t want to do that, ever. I never … oh my God, no!” At a loss for words she continued, “I don’t want to know. I don’t. I can’t. I don’t. No.”

“It’s cold, it’s scary, I don’t know if I can come back down. If I go, no one will believe I went,” she continued. “It doesn’t matter if you go, because everyone thinks you didn’t go, or they have a weird take on it. I have no fascination.”

“Thank you for asking because I don’t know why I just completely freaked out by that,” she said, before joking, “It was like I thought you were going to make me go.”

Swift’s response comes two months after Mills, 51, asked Mariah Carey if she has any interest in space exploration. But Carey wasn’t aware Perry, 40, went to space and asked, “Where’d she go?”

Mills couldn’t confirm exactly where, a crew member shouted off-camera that the “Firework” singer went “just into orbit and back.”

“Wow. Alright Katy,” a seemingly shocked Carey said, adding, “I’m not mad at her. That’s pretty amazing.” But Carey ultimately decided a trip to space wasn’t for her, quipping, “I think I’ve done enough.”

Mills’ new interview question comes nearly six months after Perry, journalist Gayle King, philanthropist Lauren Sánchez Bezos, activist Amanda Nguyen, NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe and film producer Kerianne Flynn went to space aboard a Blue Origin rocket on an all-female mission.

Flight NS-31 took off from West Texas on April 14, bringing the women to the edge of space and then returning after little over 10 minutes.

While Swift and Carey have said they’re not interested in similar trips, several celebrities have outright criticized the space expedition. 

Olivia Munn, Emily Ratajkowski, Olivia Wilde, Amy Schumer, Christine Baranski, Meg Stalter and even the fast-food chain Wendy’s also expressed their contempt for the flight. Jessica Chastain shared an op-ed from The Guardian on X, titled, “The Blue Origin flight showcased the utter defeat of American feminism.”
