The surprise? It’s been right under everyone’s nose from the start. While other country stars dazzle with larger-than-life personas, Brooks stands out by embracing his down-to-earth, ordinary nature, something he admits has defined him since the beginning. He says,

Lookin’ in the mirror is one of the things that mystifies me, I’m not beautiful. I’m not thin. And the voice is not of cinematic quality. My curse is I’m not special. My blessing is I’m not special. I get to be the average guy.

It was refreshing to see that despite all the fame and acclaim, Brooks came off as your friendly neighborhood country star. Even with a reported $400 millionnet worth, (viaCelebrity Net Worth) he still doesn’t let it go to his head. He may have a big name, but he still acted like that down-to-earth guy who’s just thrilled to pick up a guitar and sing his heart out.

Since 2016, Garth Brooks has kept busy, releasing three albums, including a holidayalbum with his wife, Trisha Yearwood, andTriple Live, the much-anticipated follow-up to his iconic 1998 albumDouble Live. His 2020 release,Fun, also was a super hit.

Other than that, Brooks isn’t just managing his music career, he’s also facing some serious legal issues. A lawsuit filed by“Jane Roe,”who claims to have worked as his hairstylist and makeup artist, has accused the country superstar of sexual assault and battery, with the alleged incidents occurring in 2019 during a work trip. Brooks has strongly denied the accusations, calling them baseless. In a statement toPeople, he claimed,

In the end, Brooks explained that all he truly wants is to spread positivity and share his music with the world. In a recent court filing, his legal team painted him as“the victim of a shakedown,”requesting both compensatory and punitive damages in response to the allegations.
