Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez is suing a TV show after it called him ugly.
Tevez is said to be "furious" at the cartoon, which ridicules his life in England and dubs him "Ugly Little Carlos".
Tevez is claiming damages from the show called "A Perfect World" which is a big hit in his homeland, The Sun reports.
It lampoons the 27-year-old striker for struggling to learn English and accuses him of urinating in a valuable antique vase.
