Oh, yes, this happened.

Madonna, desperately and bitterly trying to cling to relevance, told concert-goers that she doesn’t care who they vote for, as long as it’s Obama. Fans responded with, “Shut up and try to sing” in the form of boos and walk-outs.
Wow. Fans walked out of Madonna's concert & booed her after she told concert goers to vote for Obama @MittRomney 2012

Concert attendees reported from the pitiful scene.
A friend of mine attending Madonna concert in NOLA complaining on FB about Madonna drivel about Obama during concert. Predictable

@blockheadliv the only time Madonna got booed when she said she doesn't who we vote for, (unless its Obama)

“@abaiamonte: Alight Madonna, we understand you like Obama.. Now STFU!” ???
I'm sooooooooo bored. Come save me— vanessa (@BjsSgk11) October 28, 2012
Boredom was a running theme. As always, rock stars (term used loosely) think that they are super edgy and cool when, in reality, they are oh-so-tired and predictable. This concert-goer sums Madonna’s “performance” up.
Just back from the #Madonna concert in #NOLA. WASTE of time & money. 2 hrs late, then BORING 1st half. I fell asleep multiple times. #NoJoke

Then she encouraged everyone to vote. Didn't care for whom…as long as it was Obama. Crowd cheered big, then boo'd bigger. #madonna #NOLA
— Monique________#TGDN (@MoniNewOrleans) October 28, 2012
Then many people got up & left the concert. They were the lucky. My group was separated, couldn't hear phone calls to go. #Madonna #NOLA
— Monique________#TGDN (@MoniNewOrleans) October 28, 2012
The rest of the concert was pretty boring as well. She made Brittany Spears look like the music concert show biz benchmark. #Madonna #NOLA

My 1st & last #Madonna concert. SO glad I didn't waste my money on it. Ticket was a birthday gift. Heard how overpriced tickets were. #NOLA
— Monique________#TGDN (@MoniNewOrleans) October 28, 2012
Just wanted to see #Madonna in concert before she got too old & broke a hip or something. Should have skipped it. #Madonna concert #NOLA
— Monique________#TGDN (@MoniNewOrleans) October 28, 2012
Other concert attendees report a similar experience.
@ScottWalker6 just left Madonna concert I Nola…totally sucked! She took opportunity to tell us how to vote! Boo
— Kaci Lynn (@Kaciwag) October 28, 2012
Madonna just professed her support for Obama. There were so many boos in the arena. I'm like…did you know which concert you were going to?
— Matt Armato (@mattarmato) October 28, 2012
Madonna needs to shut her mouth abou Obama and sing
— maddi cairns (@maddicairns) October 28, 2012
It seems this is a new pattern for the “Material Girl,” who is actually now utterly immaterial. Fans report a similar Madonna fail in Texas.
I wonder if Madonna anticpated all the boos she got when she tore off her shirt in Houston to reveal "Obama" written on her back?
— Andreay (@ANDREAREADSBOOK) October 26, 2012
Tramp stamp fail.
Madonna just tried to support Obama boos started coming from everyone in the crowd #texas

Madonna may as well just end every concert with a sickening serenade to Obama featuring “Crazy for You.”
Thankfully, concert-goers are responding with a hearty “We are just not that into you, President Obama.”
