‘Disgusted’ Emily Ratajkowski accuses Blue Origin of ‘destroying the planet’ in fiery rant after star-studded space mission

Emily Ratajkowski has joined the growing list of celebrities calling out Blue Origin for sending a star-studded, all-female crew up to space for a recreational trip on Monday.

“That space mission this morning? That’s end time s–t. Like, this is beyond parody,” the model told her TikTok followers in a selfie-style video filmed in the car.

“That you care about Mother Earth and it’s about Mother Earth, and you’re going up in a spaceship that is built and paid for by a company that’s singlehandedly destroying the planet?”

Ratajkowski, 33, urged her fans to “look at the state of the world” and “think about how many resources went into putting these women into space,” wondering, “For what? What was the marketing there?”

She concluded her rant by saying how “disgusted” she is by the whole thing.

Blue Origin is owned by billionaire Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, whose fiancée, Lauren Sánchez, was joined by pop star Katy Perry, broadcast journalist Gayle King, NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen and film producer Kerianne Flynn for the roughly 10-minute voyage.

The ladies made the trip in full glam and custom blue uniforms designed by Sánchez.

After making it safely back to Texas, Perry was photographed kissing the ground, an image that quickly went viral on social media.

“Billion dollars bought some good memes I guess,” actress-director Olivia Wilde shadily wrote atop the picture while sharing it on her Instagram Story.

Olivia Munn slammed the mission, too.

“There are so many other things that are so important in the world right now. … What are you guys gonna do up in space? What are you doing up there?” she asked on “Today with Jenna and Friends” earlier this month prior to the launch.

Host Bush Hager explained that the group would be floating around and admiring Earth from afar, which prompted her fired-up guest to point out, “It’s so much money to go to space, and there’s a lot of people who can’t even afford eggs.”

The actress, 44, later added, “What’s the point? Is it historic that you guys are going on a ride? I think it’s a bit gluttonous. Space exploration was to further our knowledge and to help mankind. What are they gonna do up there that has made it better for us down here?”

Like Ratajkowski, Munn also wondered whether “all that rocket fuel is good” for the environment, noting that there are “a lot of resources being spent” on the journey.
