In mid-2013, Zimmerman began appearing on the reality television series Big Brother, where she was named runner-up to Andy Herren who won the season by a 7-2 vote over Zimmerman.[5] GinaMarie feels that her "thick skin" will help her in the game, along with her people skills.[6] GinaMarie was part of the Blonde-tourage alliance and stayed particularly loyal to Aaryn throughout the early period of the show. She became infamously known for becoming overly attached to Nick, suffering an emotional breakdown when he was surprisingly evicted on Day 21.

She GinaMarie along with Candice were selected to compete for the Power of Veto competition, but lost the "Keeping Up with the Joneses" Power of Veto competition.[7] Following Aaryn being nominated for eviction, GinaMarie, Howard, Judd, Kaitlin, and Spencer formed a new alliance in an attempt to go against Amanda, Elissa, Helen, and McCrae, who they felt were running the house.[8] During week four on Day 32, Elissa used the Power of Veto to remove herself from the block, with GinaMarie being nominated in her place.[9] During week five, Aaryn, Amanda, Andy, GinaMarie, Helen, Jessie, Judd, and McCrae formed an alliance to ensure the eviction of one of the Howard and Spencer.[10] On Day 36, HouseGuests competed in the "Unexpectedly Unforgettable" Have-Not competition with the team of Amanda, Candice, GinaMarie, and Judd became the Have-Nots for the week.[11][7]

GinaMarie became Head of Household during week six after winning the "Bull in a China Shop" Head of Household competition[12] GinaMarie and her allies decided to target Candice and Jessie for eviction, hoping to see Candice be evicted from the house.[13] On Day 43, GinaMarie chose to nominate Candice and Jessie for eviction.[14][15] During the "Frog Darts" Power of Veto competition, GinaMarie received the punishment of wearing a dog cone for twenty-four hours, with Jessie using the Power of Veto to remove herself from the block, with Spencer being nominated in her place.[16] On Day 49, the HouseGuests learned that it would be a Double Eviction, and that the M.V.P. twist had officially ended.[17] Zimmerman was selected to become a have-nots for the next two weeks.

Following the eviction of Zimmerman's allie Aaryn, GinaMarie won the "Big Hopportunity" competition, becoming Head of Household for the second time. [18] On Day 71, GinaMarie chose to nominate Amanda and McCrae for eviction. On Day 77, Amanda was evicted in a 3-2 vote after GinaMarie was forced to break the tie. Because this was also a double eviction week, the remaining HouseGuests went straight into the Head of Household competition, which McCrae won. McCrae (unaware that Andy was the one who had double crossed him and Amanda) nominated Elissa and GinaMarie shortly after with Elissa being evicted. Following Elissa's eviction, the HouseGuests competed in the following Head of Household competition, which Spencer won. He nominated GinaMarie and McCrae. On Day 79, McCrae won the Power of Veto, his third Veto win of the season. On Day 81, McCrae used the Veto on himself and Spencer chose to name Judd as the replacement nominee. On Day 82, Judd was evicted from the house for a second time in a 2-0 vote. During week nine, Immediately following the Veto ceremony, GinaMarie, with the sole vote to evict, choose to evict McCrae from the game.

Following McCrae's eviction, the final three participated in the first part of the final Head of Household competition, "The Great E-skate," with GinaMarie being the victor. On Day 86, Spencer and Andy competed in part two of the final HoH competition, "Crab Grab," which Andy won. During the finale, Andy and GinaMarie faced off in the final part of the competition, "Jury Statements". Andy won the competition and, as final HoH, cast the sole vote to evict Spencer from the house. After asking questions to the final two, the nine-person jury voted to crown the season's winner. Andy won in with a 7-2 vote, with Zimmer becoming runner-up.[5]
