Actor Asks Court: Who Made 'Crabs' Tweet?

Image via CrunchBaseBroadway singer/dancer and skating star Marty Thomas has asked a New York judge to order microblogger powerhouse Twitter to identify the creator of @bwayanonymous, the now inactive account that viciously tweeted Thomas contracted "crabs" from a fellow cast member of the play Avenue Q.

Thomas, who denies ever suffering from the sexually transmitted parasitic insects, claims he was defamed personally and as a professional actor by the unnamed Tweeter, who purportedly had 100 followers, and Martin is itching to know the blogger's true identity. The former star of Wicked and Xanadu and one-time  Broadway "Hottie of the Month" as voted by gaylifenyc.org,  has been fodder for the tabloids since word of the crabs accusation and his lawsuit leaked out.

What a lousy thing to do.
