Fox News host Greg Gutfeld is under scrutiny for comments made during his late-night show Gutfeld! on Friday, where he directed a crude joke at singer Katy Perry following her recent trip to space.

“To prepare for her trip on the Blue Origin rocket, Katy Perry said, quote, she read a book on string theory—we’re told she thought it was about the effects of zero gravity on tampons,” Gutfeld said, delivering the line during a segment focused on the Blue Origin flight that took place earlier in the week.
Perry was among six women who took part in the space expedition on Monday, launched by Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin program.

Others on board included Bezos’ fiance Lauren Sanchez, television anchor Gayle King, aerospace engineer Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen, and film producer Kerianne Flynn.

The brief journey, which lasted approximately 11 minutes and reached the edge of space, was widely covered and discussed online. After returning to Earth, Perry described: “I felt super connected to life. So connected to love.”
