Katy Perry in space? Ashley Graham on stage? Lady Gaga summoning mayhem? This week’s celebrity chaos is so wild, you'll swear we made it up—guess which star did what before clicking!
This week in celebrity land, the stars have literally gone out of this world—because Katy Perry took a rocket ride to space. Yes, we’ve officially entered the era of pop star astronauts. Meanwhile, Ashley Graham slipped into fishnets and stilettos for her Broadway debut, and Lady Gaga brought the house down (again) at Coachella with what fans are calling her most "Mayhem"-filled performance ever. Grab your popcorn. Celebrity news is not just hot—it’s cosmic.
Katy Perry Beams Up (and Sells a Tour Along the Way)
Let’s start with the intergalactic elephant in the room. Katy Perry didn’t just firework her way through another arena tour—she launched into actual space. As part of Blue Origin’s all-female NS-31 mission, Perry took off on April 14 alongside an international crew, including the first Vietnamese woman and the first person from the Bahamas in space. That’s historic stuff.
But this wasn’t just a NASA-style science mission—it was pure Perry. She brought tour promo with her and made sure fans knew tickets were on sale while she was, you know, floating above Earth. Critics? Sure, they’re saying it’s space-tourism-gone-commercial. Fans? They’re tweeting, “Only Katy could turn zero gravity into a marketing strategy.” We say: iconic. Merch from orbit, when?
Ashley Graham Slays Broadway in “Chicago”
Meanwhile, back on Earth, supermodel Ashley Graham hit the Broadway stage for her debut as Roxie Hart in Chicago. And folks—she crushed it. On April 15, the Ambassador Theatre was packed, the crowd was buzzing, and Graham? She served vocals, moves, and more confidence than a drag queen on finale night.
She’s not just playing Roxie. She is Roxie. With a limited engagement running until May 25, the reviews are in: critics are charmed, audiences are floored, and every theater nerd with an Instagram account is posting, “Ashley Graham just gave us everything.” Yes, queen of curves and showbiz!
Lady Gaga’s Coachella Was Full “Mayhem” (And We Loved It)
Let’s not forget Mother Monster herself. Lady Gaga returned to Coachella 2025 with a vengeance—and a new sound. She headlined the festival with a thunderous, genre-blurring set that mashed up her biggest bangers with fresh tracks from her album Mayhem. Yes, “Killah,” her collab with Gesaffelstein, is just as deadly as the title suggests.
The show? Pure art. Neon chaos. Easter eggs galore (including nods to ARTPOP and Chromatica). Fans lost their minds. Twitter lost its servers. Gaga closed with a firework-laced “Bad Romance,” reminding us that she remains a performance icon who doesn’t just raise the bar—she vaporizes it.
Other Drama: Mickey Rourke & Blake Lively
Just to sprinkle some old-school chaos in the mix—Mickey Rourke got booted from Celebrity Big Brother UK for... let’s call it "being Mickey Rourke." Homophobic comments and aggressive outbursts? Yeah, that'll do it. He’s now reportedly lawyered up. Because of course.
But to end on a high note: Blake Lively just made TIME Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People list. Lively was dubbed a “Titan,” and honestly, she deserves it. Between her acting, entrepreneurial ventures, and trolling Ryan Reynolds on social media, Blake is thriving—and influencing.
TL;DR – Celebrities This Week Are Wild
Katy Perry = interstellar marketing genius
Ashley Graham = Broadway’s new darling
Lady Gaga = still our alien pop goddess
Mickey Rourke = cancelled again
Blake Lively = TIME’s golden girl
