Yusuf Islam formerly known as Cat Stevens won his lawsuit against contactmusic.com, who published articles that Cat Stevens was sexiest, and did not deal or speak to women who were not veiled, due to his religion "Islam". This is totally false said his lawyer.

The site contactmusic.com agreed to pay "substantial damages", as well as an apology for allegations made about him.
