\n\tMariah Carey<\/a> might be a star, but she has no interest in going to space \u2014 even if Katy Perry<\/a> recently did, not that Mimi had heard anything about it.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a memorable moment from her interview with BBC Radio 2 posted Thursday (Aug. 7), Carey learns for the very first time that Perry was part of<\/a> Blue Origin\u2019s first-ever all-female trip past the Earth\u2019s atmosphere, despite the event being all over the news in April. \u201cDid she go to space? Where\u2019d she go?\u201d the Songbird Supreme asks after the interviewer brings it up.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cInto orbit and back?\u201d Carey continues in her characteristically reserved manner. \u201cShe\u2019s like, floating in the \u2026 And this is true? Wow. All right, Katy. I\u2019m not mad at her, that\u2019s pretty amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen asked whether she\u2019d ever take a trip to the stars, Carey had a hilariously snarky response. \u201cI think I\u2019ve done enough,\u201d she said simply.<\/p>\n

\n\tThough Mimi missed it, Perry\u2019s journey to space was widely publicized this past spring. She was one of several women who flew approximately 62 miles above Earth on a rocket trip organized by Jeff Bezos\u2019 space tech company, riding the line between the atmosphere and outer space before coming back down after about 10 minutes.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe expedition was also widely criticized<\/a> at the time, with some people calling it a waste of resources. Perry, however, described it as an empowering step forward for women, telling press <\/a>shortly after she touched down, \u201cIt\u2019s about making space for future women and taking up space and belonging \u2026 this is all for the benefit of Earth.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tKeeping her feet planted firmly on the ground, Carey is more focused on blasting off on a new album era as opposed to in a rocket ship. The star will release Here for It All in September, following singles \u201cType Dangerous\u201d and \u201cSugar Sweet\u201d featuring Kehlani and Shenseea.<\/p>\n
