Taylor Momsen’s recent hospitalization due to a spider bite adds to a series of unfortunate events involving animals during her tours. In 2024, a bat bit her leg while she was performing on stage in Spain, also during a tour with AC/DC. This latest incident occurred while she was in Mexico City, where she received treatment from local doctors before performing with AC/DC.
Momsen documented her experience on Instagram, sharing photos of the bite and her time in the hospital. Despite the severity of the bite, she managed to take the stage, thanking the doctors in Mexico for their help. This resilience has earned her praise from fans, who have lauded her "absolute legend behavior."
The Illinois Department of Public Health notes that while spider bites from common species like Yellow Sac Spiders can cause sharp pain and localized redness, brown recluse spiders, more common in the southwestern U.S., can cause more serious complications, including disfiguring wounds. The exact type of spider that bit Momsen was not identified.
