Katy Perry was studying string theory ahead of spaceflight

Also the fact that her fans are praising her on twitter because of all the things she said on that interview and none of them are clocking her like us in this forum is sending me 😭

I guess they listen to what they can relate... lmao

I can’t deal with the fact that she puts string theory, astrophysics, astronomy and astrology all in the same basket! Pythagoras must be turning in his grave.

Astrology had me screaming   the interviewer should have asked next "and what is it you found interesting about each of those subjects? one thing you learned from each?"

I take back every nice thing I've said about her  

Astrology is not science, it's superstition. No different from believing the little scrap of paper in a fortune cookie is a 100% factual prediction of the future or that the zombie son of god rose from the dead and washed away the sins of every human.

To list it along with legitimate science irks me  

What's next? "I've been studying medicine, like crystals and acupuncture"  

And all this  

Why Pythagoras? The man is known for geometry...and string theory is advanced level theoretical physics. You're gonna be the passenger of a high atmosphere d*ck measuring contest, girl. Calm down  

She hit all my pet peeves in two paragraphs, I can't believe it  

girl why are you surpriced? this is exactly what i'd expect from miss is math related to science?

Is this what i sound like when i talk about space facts because ive spent 6 years falling asleep to astronomy videos 

Doubt it. Her answer is so incredibly harmless, there's no reason to be this tilted over it, but it screams "preppy girl who can't understand how she got an F in class 'cause she cheated off the nerd once"  

I do love when people get creative linking human experience and factual science. Like, I've adopted the romantic view of string theory 'cause I think it's a pretty thought  

String theory at it's simplest is the assertion that every thing with mass is the result of vibration on the quantum level, like strings vibrating that create quarks which build subatomic particles/atoms/molecules/all matter

So reality is like a "song" played on those "strings", like reality is a melody being plucked out of an omnipresent guitar  

Or you know, just mention the dude who helps you find the missing side of a triangle and talk about your star sign, that works too

Religion harmed me, I'm trying to harm it back  

Imagine my deeply devout Baptist family's reaction when I broke that gem out. Priceless

it sounds like a Jojo Siwa response

Also, even the real stuff she mentioned has **** all to do with her going to space. It's like saying, "I studied thermodynamics before I went for my driver's license."

Anyway, hopefully if she keeps listening to Carl, he'll set her straight on astrology.

@katyperry, is math related to science?

A missed opportunity indeed!  I can imagine her saying “I learned about my astrological ascendant” lol She seems to be one of those people who blames their zodiac sign for bad personality traits

it reminds me of a time i was working with someone in dominos who was studying astronomy and i told my mum "yeah he's really smart he's studying astrology master degree" by accident and was confused why her response was "oh that's odd"
