Katy Perry responded to backlash over her Blue Origin space mission, as she stood firm on her decision to join the historic all-female crew. TV host Gayle King revealed to Fox News Digital at the TIME100 Gala the flight crew's next mission.

Blue Origin will launch its eleventh crewed flight on April 14, with pop star Katy Perry strapping into the New Shepard space capsule alongside five other passengers, all of them women. The mission, NS-31, will be the first all-female crew since the Soviet Union's Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman in space during a solo flight in 1963.
