Back in April, Katy Perry and five others took a 10-minute trip to space thanks to Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin aerospace company, and it was basically all anyone talked about for about a week. Maybe even two.

Between the backlash and memes, the interviews and think-pieces, it’s almost impossible to imagine that anyone with access to the internet could’ve missed the news. Which brings us to the one and only, Mariah Carey.

In a new interview with the BBC, radio host Scott Mills asked Mariah if she could ever see herself following in Katy’s footsteps — only to very quickly realize she had no idea what he was talking about.

Even with her big black shades on, the confusion on Mariah’s face was evident. “Did she go to space?” she said.

Mariah has a reputation for leaning into a bit every now and then if she’s feeling shady; however, in this instance, she appeared genuinely baffled as she dug for answers: “Where'd she go?!” she asked, looking around the room.

Someone off camera chimed in to give Mariah the context that she needed — i.e., that Katy’s space mission was rather brief — and the music icon was even more intrigued. “Into orbit and back? She’s like, floating in the…,” she said. “And this is true?”

When Scott clarified that he was, in fact, not making it up, Mariah expressed her admiration, while also seeming totally unbothered by the whole thing, which is a skill in itself. “Wow, alright Katy,” she said, totally deadpan. “I’m not mad at her. That’s pretty amazing.”

And just when you thought the clip couldn’t get any better, Scott returns to his initial question of, “Would you do it?” to which she replied: “I think I’ve done enough.”

Indeed, you have, Mariah. It truly doesn’t get more iconic than that.

The video has only been up for a few hours, and already, people are obsessed — not only with the fact that Mariah had no idea about the space trip, but just how chill she is about the whole thing.

“I want to be THIS genuinely chill about actually everything,” one TikTok user wrote.

“‘I think I’ve done enough’ says it all 🤣” added another.

“Mariah lives in her own World. everyone else is irrelevant 😅,” commented someone else, while another said: “Only space she knows, is her own 🤣 - Queen Aura”

Well, if we needed any more confirmation that Mariah is simply not like the rest of us, then this was it. Do yourself a favor and watch the full clip here!
