'Can we send her back'

Where’s the beef?

Popular fast-food chain Wendy’s took aim at Katy Perry after she returned to Earth as part of an all-female Blue Origin NS-13 mission.

On Monday, the “E.T.” singer joined Gayle King and Jeff Bezos’ fiancee, Lauren Sánchez for a historic mission to space.

Three celebrities, along with astronaut and bioastronautics research scientist Amanda Nguyen, NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, and filmmaker Kerianne Flynn, made up the all-female crew.

The star-studded team of women became the first all-women crew to visit space since Soviet cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova took a solo flight in 1963.

Upon their return to Blue Origin’s West Texas base, Wendy’s official X account took a dig at the singer of “California Gurls.”

“Can we send her back,” the fast-food chain’s account wrote on X in response to a tweet that read, “Katy Perry has returned from space.”

The account went on to repost photos of the singer kissing the ground following her return from space.

“I kissed the ground and I liked it,” they tweeted, referencing Perry’s hit 2008 track, “I Kissed a Girl.”

But they didn’t stop there.

When someone noted that Katy Perry and her crew had spent only 10 minutes in space, Wendy’s playfully responded with a tweet, “Don’t short change her, it was 11 minutes.”

“Good one Wendy,” a fan wrote, to which the account replied. “I’m a woman send me to space.”

“When we said women in stem this isn’t what we meant,” the fast-food chain added.

Perry and her crewmates have been hit with mass backlash over their space flight Monday, with the criticism coming from not only fans but some famous faces as well.

Celebrities like Amy Schumer, Olivia Wilde, Emily Ratajkowski and Olivia Munn made their feelings on the space mission clear as they expressed their distaste following Monday’s mission.

In honor of their historic Blue Origin’s New Shepard 31 flight, which launched at 9:30 a.m., the women’s space suits featured their names and a sweet nod to their careers.

On Perry’s outfit, there was a firework next to her name, as a nod to her hit 2010 track, “Firework.” She also brought a daisy flower with her on the flight as a tribute to her and fiancé Orlando Bloom’s 4-year-old daughter, Daisy. 

Sanchez’s name had a fly near it, a nod to her recently-released children’s book, “The Fly Who Flew to Space.”

Meanwhile, King’s name had a microphone next to it, in a sweet nod to her work as a CBS News anchor.
