Hallelujah: Madonna Booed, Crowd Splits After She Praises Obama
You can’t make this stuff up. Madonna doesn’t draw the conservative crowd. Mostly the granola folks. Y’know… the fruits, nuts and flakes. However, this crowd, who you’d think would be beholden to Obama and Madonna, booed her and then split. There might be a God after all little children. Wow.
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Madonna drew boos and triggered a walkout by several concertgoers after she touted President Barack Obama on her “MDNA Tour” in New Orleans.
The Material Girl asked during Saturday night’s performance: “Who’s registered to vote?” She added: “I don’t care who you vote for as long as you vote for Obama.” Drawing boos in touting Obama over Republican Mitt Romney, Madonna followed: “Seriously, I don’t care who you vote for … Do not take this privilege for granted. Go vote.”
Madonna is often outspoken. Some Colorado fans, mindful of a mass shooting there, complained she used a fake gun to shoot a masked gunman in a recent concert act in Denver. A Madonna concert in Paris in July drew ire when a video showed a swastika on a politician’s forehead.
