Blue Origin has lined up what would be the first all-female crew to launch to space since a Soviet woman’s solo launch in 1963, and that one had a lot less Grammy winners on board. Pop singer Katy Perry and CBS Mornings co-host Gayle King are among the six woman announced as crew on the NS-31 mission for the suborbital New Shepard rocket set to launch this spring.

They will be aboard the New Shepard, the centerpiece rocket of Blue Origin’s space tourism business, in a launch this spring.

Katy Perry is going to space. The award-winning "E.T." and "Firework" singer will fly on a firework of her own when she joins the first all-female crew to launch on a Blue Origin New Shepard rocket later this year.
