Garth Brooks Follows Less Than 70 People On Social Media

Garth Brooks isn’t super active on social media, but someone at WhiskeyRiff.com was surprised to see how few people Garth follows online, and how random some of them are.

Last we checked, he was only following 63 people total on Instagram and X, formerly Twitter. Actually, less than that, because some are duplicates.

A few are people you’d expect, like his wife Trisha Yearwood, fellow country stars like Dolly Parton, Blake Shelton, and Carrie Underwood, and the official account for the Grand Ole Opry.

Some of the others DO seem random. But if you do a quick Google search, there’s always a reason.

Here are a few “RANDOM” people he follows, and why they’re not actually that weird…

1. Chris Pratt. They sang “Friends in Low Places” together at an award show in 2019. He also follows Justin Timberlake and Ashton Kutcher, two other people who’ve sung it with him.

2. Former NFL star Larry Fitzgerald. They’ve done lots of charity work together. He follows a few sports stars, and it’s usually because of his Teammates for Kids Foundation. He also follows Brett Favre and Steelers coach Mike Tomlin.

3. National Geographic. Seems random until you remember he narrates a series on NatGeo called “America’s National Parks”.

4. Ellen DeGeneres. He did her show multiple times. He also guest-hosted.

5. Hailee Fisher, Guido Pescatore, and some guy who calls himself “The Garth Fan”. It looks like they’re just big fans he followed at some point. Pretty cool to be followed by your IDOL, especially when he follows so few people.
