Taylor Momsen ‘Must Really Be a Witch’ After Getting Bit by Bat During AC/DC Opening Set

Every season is spooky season when you’re Taylor Momsen. During a recent performance opening for AC/DC on the Power Up tour, the Pretty Reckless frontwoman caught the attention of a small bat, which flew onstage and proceeded to sink its teeth into her leg. The musician was barely fazed by the encounter, but it’s going to stick with her — at least for the two weeks that she has to receive rabies shots.

“So…ROCK AND ROLL MOMENT…in Sevilla Wednesday during “Witches Burn” of all songs… a BAT 🦇 🦇 flew onto me and clung to my leg,” Momsen wrote on Instagram. “In the moment I was performing and had no idea until the incredible crowd kept screaming and pointing.”

In the video she shared of the moment, Momsen was calm and collected as the band and crew jumped into action, slightly hesitant on how to best dislodge the bat from her leg. “I must really be a witch,” she winked to the crowd. “It’s alright and the bat’s fine, he’s gonna be my new friend.”
