And you probably know that she's been the frontperson for rock band The Pretty Reckless since 2009. Right now, they're opening for AC/DC in Europe.

So, yesterday Taylor shared video of the band's recent gig in Seville, Spain — specifically, video of a literal bat biting her on the leg while she was performing.

There's the bat, right there on her leg.

"So…ROCK AND ROLL MOMENT," she wrote in the video's IG caption, revealing that the incident took place while the band was performing the song "Witches Burn" "of all songs."

"In the moment I was performing and had no idea until the incredible crowd kept screaming and pointing," she wrote. "He was cute, but yes he bit me."

Taylor also shared footage of the resulting bat bite, as well as being administered rabies shots that she'll have to get for "two weeks." "Thanks to all the staff at the hospital who dubbed me #batgirl after seeing it on the local news that morning," she also wrote.
