GinaMarie Zimmerman who worked as a pageant coordinator, for “Big Brother” was fired after speaking racist comments that were seen or the show’s 24/7 live feeds.  She referred to welfare as “n**ger insurance,” among other offensive comments,  reports TMZ.

East Coast USA says GinaMarie has been an employee for five years, but insist, “We have never known this side of GinaMarie or have never witnessed such acts of racism in the past.”

The pageant says, “We are actually thankful that this show let us see GinaMarie for who she truly is. We would never want her to be a role model to our future contestants. In a business where we are surrounded by beauty every day we are saddened to see something so ugly come from someone we put on a very high pedestal.”

A rep for the organization tells TMZ they are especially upset because they encouraged their pageant girls to watch GinaMarie on the show and vote for her … thinking she would be a role model.
