Katy Perry may face 'career extinction' if she does not take a step back from limelight, warns PR expert

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Katy Perry could end up facing a "career extinction" if she does not step back from the public after her 11-minute space flight drama on billionaire Jeff Bezos' rocket Blue Origin, a PR expert revealed to the Daily Mail.

The 40-year-old singer joined Gayle King, Lauren Sanchez, Aisha Bowe, Kerianne Flynn, and Amanda Nguyen in an all-female fleet that took off on Monday, April 14, morning from West Texas.

PR expert says Katy Perry may face 'career extinction'

Speaking to the outlet, PR expert Eric Schiffer said that Katy Perry's reputation is in tatters and it may be 'beyond' repair. He branded Perry as an "out-of-touch" celebrity who keeps making "boneheaded moves in a desperate bid for relevance."

Moreover, he suggested that if the 40-year-old wants any hope of coming back, she needs to disappear for a bit.

He said, "Katy Perry's reputation is vibe surfing the toilet drain faster than Blue Origin re-entered the atmosphere. Katy's entering an area beyond career crisis into career extinction with a brand now synonymous with faux-feminist failure."

"Katy went to space, but she still couldn't find her lost fanbase. Even her backup dancers may be distancing themselves. She went to space for perspective, but Katy may soon need a telescope to see her career from here," the PR expert added.

Out of the six women, Perry has by far received the most criticism. After the brief mission, many believed she was cringy when she came out from the capsule and held a daisy up to the sky before dropping to her knees and kissing the ground.

The singer then became poetic about feeling "super connected to love" and thanked a reporter who called her an astronaut, and declared how their all-female journey "has always been about love and belonging".

She also hampered her reputation when a clip from the mission showed her promoting her upcoming Lifetimes tour while floating in zero gravity.

She said in a post-flight interview, "It's not about singing my songs. It's about a collective energy in there. It's about us. It's about making space for future women and taking up space and belonging."

"And it's about this wonderful world that we see right out there and appreciating it. This is all for the benefit of Earth," Perry added.

Moreover, the source mentioned that Perry was not expecting the criticism and was "disheartened" by the "uncalled for and upsetting" backlash.
