Taylor Momsen experienced a true rock and roll moment when a bat flew onto her leg and bit her during The Pretty Reckless' performance in Seville, Spain.
The band was opening for AC/DC on their Power Up Tour.
Momsen, initially unaware of the bat, continued performing until the crowd alerted her. Despite the surprise and slight fright, she calmly informed the audience about the incident and assured them that both she and the bat were fine.
The singer later shared a video of the encounter on Instagram, where she humorously recounted the experience and thanked the hospital staff who nicknamed her #BatGirl. She also shared additional footage of the bat on her leg and her visit to the hospital for rabies shots.
In a second video, Momsen jokingly expressed her reluctance to get rabies shots and shared her initial confusion about the crowd's reaction, thinking she had lost a bracelet or something else.
The incident quickly went viral, with fans and fellow musicians commenting on Momsen's post, including singer Natasha Bedingfield who inquired about the pain from the bite. Momsen confirmed that the bite itself didn't hurt, but the rabies shots did.
Despite the unexpected encounter, Momsen and The Pretty Reckless continued their tour with AC/DC, which is scheduled to run through August. The band is also working on a new album, having already started the recording process.
