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 nights performance: Whos registered to vote? She added: I dont 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 dont 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 politicians forehead.
