Oprah Winfrey has urged Chris Brown to seek counselling.

The talk show queen hit back at comments that the disgraced singer, who was convicted of beating up ex-girlfriend Rihanna, made to a US magazine.

Brown said that he felt the fact Oprah dedicated one of her shows to domestic violence - which she said was inspired by the Umbrella singer - was a “slap in [the face]“.

He said: “I commend Oprah on being like, ‘This is a problem.’ But it was a slap in my face.

“I did a lot of stuff for her, like going to Africa and performing for her school.”

R&B star Brown, 20, added: “She could have been more helpful, like, ‘OK, I’m going to help both of these people out.’”

A representative for Winfrey, 55, said: “Oprah is very appreciative that Chris Brown performed at her school, but she takes domestic abuse very seriously.

“She hopes he gets the counselling he needs.”

Brown was sentenced last month to 180 days physical labour and five years’ probation.
