Blinded by the Bite: Stage Presence or Bat Blindness?

While Momsen belted out the song title, unaware of the incoming flying mammal, a bat landed and sank its teeth into her thigh. The audience, however, wasn’t as oblivious. Their screams and frantic gestures finally alerted the singer to the uninvited guest.

A stagehand heroically intervened, removing the bat from Momsen’s leg. Though initially unaware of the bite, Momsen, ever the rockstar, continued the performance. Later, a trip to the hospital confirmed the bat’s unwelcome souvenir – a bite requiring rabies shots.
