Mackenzie Claude appears in this episode as the former military man Alaska Thunderf**k makes over into first-time drag for the maxi challenge. Alaska decided to name Mackenzie's drag persona 'Nebraska'. Mackenzie would later go on to date Rupaul's Drag Race season 8 contestant (and professional Las Vegas Britney Spears impersonator) Derrick Berry. Mackenzie now regularly dons drag as Nebraska Thunderfu**k, which is the character she created while working with Alaska during the makeover challenge in this episode. According to interviews, Alaska gave Nebraska permission to use her drag surname 'Thunderf**ck' professionally for gigs, but Nebraska has been largely mentored in the drag world by her real life boyfriend, Derrick Berry.
