Joe Rogan and Tim Dillon have savagely criticised Katy Perry for her Blue Origin space trip.

Earlier this month, the all-woman crew took off in west Texas before returning to Earth 11 minutes later.

Alongside Perry, five other high-profile women were present, including aerospace engineer Aisha Bowe, film producer Kerianne Flynn, activist Amanda Nguyễn, TV personality Gayle King, and journalist and Jeff Bezos' fiancée Lauren Sánchez.

Despite how brief it was, the expedition marked the first all-female space crew since 1963.

However, the voyage has been heavily criticised ever since it took off, with many taking issue with the purpose of the flight.

And in the most recent episode of his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan certainly didn't hold back.

Speaking to Dillon, he said: "I don't know if you've seen Katy Perry talk about it, but she's basically a guru now.

"Let's not minimize this. Let's celebrate female astronauts. A lot of male astronauts, they have to go to school, they have to learn how to be a pilot first, they have to join the air force or the navy and then they get appointed by NASA and then they go to space."

Dillon added: "There has been female astronauts..."

To which Rogan added sarcastically: "Let's not minimize this.

"They're profoundly different now."

The pair then watched a video of the women talking about the trip after they had safely landed back on Earth, and could be seen laughing at their comments.

Referencing one made by Sanchez, Dillon said: "It's funny to hear the richest guy in the world's wife say 'we're all in this together', I don't know if people feel that [sic]."

Dillon then spoke about the widespread rumours that it was faked, adding: "I hope they fake something better than that."

UNILAD has reached out to Perry's rep for comment.

There were a lot of theories spun about the journey, with some people believing that they had proof that the whole thing was fake.

On X, people posted images of other capsules that had been to space and the damaged caused by re-entering Earth’s atmosphere compared to Perry’s pristine capsule.

Then, a moment caught on film showed a person opening the hatch of the door from the inside after it landed, before closing it. Bezos then used a bar to open it from the outside.

This led to many people calling the whole thing a sham.

But there was also an issue with people calling Perry an ‘astronaut’ due to her lack of training.

One of the people who believe she should not use the term is the Secretary of the US Department of Transportation, Sean Duffy.

He shared some thoughts on X, mentioning that the crew are not experienced enough to be able to fly into space.

He wrote: "The last FAA guidelines under the Commercial Space Astronaut Wings Program were clear: Crewmembers who travel into space must have 'demonstrated activities during flight that were essential to public safety, or contributed to human space flight safety'.

"The crew who flew to space this week on an automated flight by Blue Origin were brave and glam, but you cannot identify as an astronaut. They do not meet the FAA astronaut criteria."
