Jessica Alba defends Katy Perry's Blue Origin trip, says ire should be aimed at Trump's 'abuses of power'

VAN HORN, TEXAS: Jessica Alba is done watching women get dragged for doing something different - especially when, in her view, there are far bigger issues to worry about.

The 43-year-old 'Fantastic Four' star broke her silence on the Blue Origin backlash this week, stepping in to support her friend Lauren Sanchez and the rest of the all-female space crew.

The mission, which lasted just 11 minutes, featured Katy Perry, Gayle King, NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, astronaut Amanda Nguyen, and filmmaker Kerianne Flynn, reports TMZ.

Jessica Alba defends Blue Origin crew

Jessica Alba is standing up for her fellow women, pushing back against critics of the Blue Origin flight. She says the backlash is misdirected—if people are looking to vent, they should be calling out President Donald Trump, not the trailblazing women who just made history aboard the New Shepard spaceflight.

But Alba thinks the rage is misdirected. She reposted a message from political strategist Ana Navarro-Cárdenas to her Instagram Story, telling her 21 million followers, enough with the pile-on.

She shared a post from political strategist Ana Navarro-Cardenas with a bold “THIS” written above it. In the post, Navarro-Cardenas questioned why anyone would be so upset over an 11-minute space flight taken by Lauren Sanchez, Gayle King, Katy Perry, Amanda Nguyen, Aisha Bowe, and Kerianne Flynn, noting it hardly affects anyone’s daily life.

She called on people to stop directing their outrage at the women who just made history in space and instead focus on those “abuses of power” specifically, the US president.

Amy Schumer, Olivia Wilde, and Olivia Munn aren’t buying the hype around Bezos-backed mission

Lauren Sanchez may have rocketed into the headlines with her historic all-female Blue Origin crew, but some celebs aren’t exactly clapping from the sidelines.

Comedian Amy Schumer and actors Olivia Wilde and Olivia Munn have jumped in with sharp, sarcastic takes on the NS-31 mission that sent Katy Perry, Gayle King, and others on an 11-minute joyride into the stratosphere on April 14.

Schumer kicked off the trolling with a mock-serious Instagram video pretending she’d been added to the mission last-minute.

Holding a random Black Panther figurine, she deadpanned, “Guys, last second they added me to space and I'm going to space. I'm bringing this thing. It has no meaning to me, but it was in my bag and I was on the Subway, and I got the text and they were like, 'Do you want to go to space?' so I'm going to space.”

Olivia Wilde, never one to miss a good meme moment, reposted an image of Katy Perry kissing the ground post-flight, captioned, “Getting off a commercial flight in 2025.”

“Billion dollars bought some good memes I guess,” Wilde wrote in her Instagram Stories.

Then there’s Olivia Munn, who kept it blunt while appearing on 'Today with Jenna & Friends.' 

“What’s the point? Is it historic that you guys are going on a ride? I think it’s a bit gluttonous. Space exploration was to further our knowledge and to help mankind,” she said, adding, “What are they gonna do up there that has made it better for us down here?”
