Maybe even two. Blue Origin / Via youtu.be, Gilbert Flores / Getty Images 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. Paras Griffin / Getty Images 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. BBC / Via tiktok.com Even with her big black shades on, the confusion on Mariah's face was evident. "Did she go to space?" she said. BBC / Via tiktok.com 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. BBC / Via tiktok.com 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?" BBC / Via tiktok.com 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." BBC / Via tiktok.com 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." BBC / Via tiktok.com 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. Pg / Getty Images "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.
