ALASKA THUNDERFUCK BIO

Alaska Thunderfuck 5000 is an extraterrestrial phenomenon from the planet Glamtr0n.  After crash-landing on Earth, she found herself on the fifth season of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” where she finished in the final 3 before returning to take the crown as the winner of “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” Season 2. 

 

Alongside certified platinum selling songwriter/producer Tomas Costanza and Ash Gordon, Alaska co-wrote and starred in the Off-Broadway hit “Drag: The Musical,” winning an Outer Critics Circle award for outstanding new Off-Broadway musical, and receiving 2 Drama League Award nominations, 3 Dorian Theater World Award nominations, 6 Lucille Lortel Award nominations, and winning the Queerty and the Glam Award during its celebrated Off-Broadway run.  The musical is slated to make its West End debut in 2026.  

 

Alaska co-founded the LGBTQ+ podcast network known as Moguls of Media (MOM), giving birth to such hit podcasts as "Very Delta," "RNR with Courtney Act," and "Hall & Closet,"  and she is the co-host and creator of the award-winning and wildly popular “Race Chaser with Alaska & Willam.”  

 

She has released five career-defining studio albums, “Anus,” “Poundcake,” “Vagina,” “Red 4 Filth,” and “Amethyst Journey,” with Rolling Stone magazine spotlighting two of her songs, “Hieeee” & “Read You Wrote You” in their 2024 “20 Best Songs By Drag Queens” profile.

 

She is the co-founder and star of Brooklyn’s underground, diva-worship phenomenon “Divatronic” alongside director Nick Laughlin, and also co-created the Drag Queen of the Year Pageant Competition Award Contest Competition with Lola LeCroix.  

 

She also wrote a memoir (“My Name’s Yours, What’s Alaska”), created a signature fragrance (Red For Filth), and is a brand ambassador for SERV Vodka.

 

She can currently be found touring the planet, often with longtime musical collaborator Handsome Jeremy, spreading her otherworldly message of love, kindness, and extraterrestrial glamour with the people of Earth.  

 

Other credits include “Head Over Heels” (LA Drama Critics Circle Award nomination), “The Quiet Room” by director Sam Wineman, “God Save The Queens” (Tribeca Film Festival), “The Last Sharknado: It’s About Time,” Hulu’s “Drag Me To Dinner,” and VH1’s “Scared Famous.”
