Actually, less than that, because some are duplicates.<\/p>\n<p>A few are people you&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the others DO seem random. But if you do a quick Google search, there&#8217;s always a reason.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few &#8220;RANDOM&#8221; people he follows, and why they&#8217;re not actually that weird&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>1. Chris Pratt. They sang &#8220;Friends in Low Places&#8221; together at an award show in 2019. He also follows Justin Timberlake and Ashton Kutcher, two other people who&#8217;ve sung it with him.<\/p>\n<p>2. Former NFL star Larry Fitzgerald. They&#8217;ve done lots of charity work together. He follows a few sports stars, and it&#8217;s usually because of his Teammates for Kids Foundation. He also follows Brett Favre and Steelers coach Mike Tomlin.<\/p>\n<p>3. National Geographic. Seems random until you remember he narrates a series on NatGeo called &#8220;America&#8217;s National Parks&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>4. Ellen DeGeneres. He did her show multiple times. He also guest-hosted.<\/p>\n<p>5. Hailee Fisher, Guido Pescatore, and some guy who calls himself &#8220;The Garth Fan&#8221;. It looks like they&#8217;re just big fans he followed at some point. Pretty cool to be followed by your IDOL, especially when he follows so few people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Garth Brooks isn&#8217;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.","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":21862,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[1305,399,56,151,543,2975,154],"class_list":["post-26725","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-country-music-news","tag-chris-pratt","tag-ellen","tag-garth-brooks","tag-instagram","tag-larry-fitzgerald","tag-national-geographic","tag-social-media"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-16 02:21:35","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/country959.com\/blogs\/country-music-news\/2023\/10\/garth-brooks-follows-less-than-70-people-on-social-media\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26725","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26725"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26725\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21862"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26725"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26725"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26725"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
