“Can we send her back,” the official X account for Wendy’s asked in the comment section of a post by Pop Crave announcing, “Katy Perry has returned from space.”
On Monday, the “Firework” singer joined Jeff Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sánchez, CBS Mornings co-host Gayle King, former NASA rocker scientist Aisha Bowe, bioastronautics research scientist Amanda Nguyen, and nonprofit leader Kerianne Flynn in what was “the first all-female flight crew since Valentina Tereshkova’s solo spaceflight in 1963,” Blue Origin said.
The all-female space crew landed back on Earth at Blue Origin’s West Texas base after a brief, eleven-minute flight.
“I kissed the ground and I liked it,” Wendy’s added in another X post — in reference to Perry’s 2008 song, “I Kissed A Girl” — sharing a photo of the singer kissing the ground after returning to Earth.
“She was only up there for like 10 mins, right?” one X user asked in the comment section of Wendy’s post.
The fast-food restaurant responded with a quip, writing, “Don’t short change her, it was 11 minutes.”
“Good one Wendy,” another X user wrote, to which the official account for the fast-food chain replied, “I’m a woman send me to space.”
“When we said women in stem this isn’t what we meant,” Wendy’s added in another X post, replying to an X user who wrote, “The taste of her cherry starship,” again, in reference to the pop star’s song.
“Why she acting like she just came back from exploring a different planet?” another X user asked, to which Wendy’s responded, “She realized there’s no biggie bags on the moon.” referring to the fast-food joint’s value meal deal known as a “Biggie Bag.”
Wendy’s went on to respond to a multitude of other X users who comments on its posts, leaving a slew of snarky replies and sarcastic quips.
While it remains unclear why the fast-food chain took aim at Perry, Wendy’s — which trended on X Tuesday morning — is known for occasionally posting in a Gen Z-esque manner on social media.
