Taylor Momsen has become a rock icon, consistently releasing hit after hit with her band The Pretty Reckless. While we first saw her on Gossip Girl and How the Grinch Stole Christmas, she has become an international sensation with her rocker songs and vibes. Recently, she’s made headlines everywhere after a bat flew onto her on stage and bit her, leading to fans calling her “batgirl,” and quite a few rabies shots.
Many have wanted to know the details about how she handles being a music superstar, from how she preps for shows, unwinds from said shows, and, of course, the wildest stories she’s dealt with while touring around the world.

In a rare interview with UsMagazine, Momsen dished on it all, including the incident that had her and her band trying to leave the country ASAP!
“In Argentina, a bunch of girls came on stage and danced to our song ‘Goin Down’. Let’s just say some clothing came off,” she said. “Apparently, a father in the audience didn’t like the nudity and called the authorities.”
She added, “The show was shut down and we had to get out of the country … quickly.”
That is truly a wild story, and we’re happy the band got out soon and unscathed!
For those who don’t know, The Pretty Reckless was first formed in 2009, with Momsen as the lead vocals and rhythm guitar. In the band, there are bandmates Ben Phillips (lead guitar, backing vocals), Mark Damon (bass), and Jamie Perkins (drums).
They’ve released four albums since 2010: Light Me Up. Going to Hell, Who You Selling For, and Death by Rock and Roll.
