During a concert in Spain, an American singer was bitten by a bat, CNN reported .
The Pretty Reckless singer and Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen was on tour in Spain during the first weekend of June. The Pretty Reckless are on AC/DC's tour and opening for them.
Momsen was performing one of the band's songs when the audience suddenly started shouting and gesturing at the singer's leg. It turned out that the bat that flew onto the stage decided to grab onto the hem of Momsen's skirt. The animal, probably out of fear, bit the performer on the leg.
Momsen took the incident without panic: with the mouse on her leg, she turned to the audience and said she “is really a witch”, making a reference to the song “Witches Burn“ she had just sung. She called for help from other members of the group, who managed to chase the bat away. The incident was captured on multiple videos.
After the concert, Momsen was taken to hospital, where she was vaccinated against rabies. Over the next few weeks, the woman will receive another series of injections as part of her vaccination course. Momsen posted a video of the incident and the bite marks on her social networks and noted in the caption of the post that “the mouse was cute, but yes, it bit me”.
