Taylor Momsen’s most recent show with her rock band, The Pretty Reckless, will surely be a memorable one for the singer.
The Gossip Girl alum took to Instagram on Friday to share that she was bitten by a bat while opening for AC/DC’s Power Up Tour in Sevilla, Spain, on Wednesday. She mentioned that she will need to undergo two weeks of rabies shots due to the incident.
In her Instagram caption, Momsen described the “rock and roll moment” where a bat flew onto her leg during their performance of “Witches Burn.” While initially unaware of the situation, the crowd’s screams and pointing brought her attention to the bat. She thanked the hospital staff who called her “batgirl” after the incident made the local news.
Footage of the encounter was shared by the rock singer on social media. The video showed Momsen performing “Witches Burn” with the bat clinging to her dress as fans tried to alert her.
Despite the unexpected visitor, Momsen remained calm and even joked with the crowd about being a witch. She referred to the bat as her new friend.
The Pretty Reckless is currently touring with AC/DC in Europe, with the tour set to conclude in August.
