I stumbled upon an interview with Constance Cooper, a former bar host/drag queen at Chateau Marmont's "Bar Marmont", the famous celebrity bar the hotel. He said in the interview that Ryan met him once and then he copied his look (and parts of his story) without even crediting or thanking him for it.

starts @5:58

No surprised though, manny characters from the AHS series are loosely based on real people

Maybe Ryan thought the hommage was so obvious credit wasn't needed? I would expect Ryan to thank Constance for the inspiration. A credit can be difficult to drop unless he gets interviewed about Liz and mentions Constance being the blueprint for that part. I mean you can't put every character on screen with a disclaimer listing all the inspirations for it. 

According to Gaga I'm a ****ing rad bitch

REALITY

Wow. I actually thought that was Denis O'Hare; my assumption is that Ryan wanted to pay some sort of homage to her, and that's why he didn't acknowledge her.
