LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Garth Brooks isn’t just battling wrinkles, he’s fighting for his reputation — and it seems no expense is too big in the war against time.

The 63-year-old country superstar has been dropping serious cash to keep himself looking polished, primped, and picture-perfect.

But this isn’t just about vanity. With a major lawsuit hanging over his head and his public image taking hit after hit, Garth appears to be in damage control mode.

Garth Brooks’s new look turns heads at Jimmy Carter's funeral

Garth Brooks made a public appearance last month at the funeral of former president Jimmy Carter, performing alongside his wife, Trisha Yearwood. But instead of the tribute, viewers were focused on something else: Garth’s weirdly flawless appearance.

"Garth spends hours getting ready for anything these days," an insider spilled to Radar Online. "He's spray-tanning to give himself a healthy glow and he's dyeing his hair and beard to the point of obsession. He loves the beard and keeps it perfectly shaped. He thinks it camouflages the pudginess in his face – and he may have a point," the mole added.

At 63, most guys would embrace the distinguished silver fox look. But Garth's signature brown locks have stayed suspiciously consistent over the years, and that’s no accident apparently.

"The grays come in so fast now that he's touching up every other day," the insider dished. "And he's constantly got the snippers out to get rid of wayward hairs. His girly-man rituals have a lot of people rolling their eyes," they stated.

If the spray tan and hair dye weren’t enough, it turns out Garth has another secret weapon in his battle against Father Time. It seems 'The Dance' hitmaker is cinching his waist like a 'Bridgerton' debutante.

"He also wears corsets to cinch in his doughy belly, but Garth is loving the results," the source revealed and continued, "He's as vain as ever, but he's clearly not obsessing over his diet and is still eating his troubles away."

Former hairstylist drops bombshell lawsuit

But this glow-up isn’t just about looking good—it’s also about damage control. Sources say Garth Brooks’ obsession with his image has only intensified ever since his former hairstylist filed a bombshell lawsuit last year.

Back in October, an unnamed woman accused the country icon of attacking her in a Los Angeles hotel suite in 2019 while she was working for him as a hairstylist and makeup artist.

According to the lawsuit, Brooks stripped down and assaulted her, while also making “repeated remarks” about having a threesome with Yearwood.

Brooks, however, is firing back hard — denying everything and hitting back with a counterclaim citing “defamation,” “false light invasion of privacy,” and “intentional infliction of emotional distress through outrageous conduct."

With so much scrutiny, an insider said Brooks "worries what people are saying behind his back. Putting so much attention into his appearance must give him some comfort."

Garth Brooks' marriage being pushed to breaking point

The lawsuit isn’t just a PR nightmare for Garth Brooks—it’s also a major stress test for his marriage.

Brooks and Yearwood have always seemed rock solid, but insiders say this latest scandal is pushing them to their breaking point. "Garth and Trisha hate being associated with sleaze like this," a source revealed.

And while Trisha is standing by him for now, the cracks are starting to show. "One thing is certain, it's going to be the biggest test of their marriage so far," they added.

This isn’t the first time Brooks has been caught up in a scandal. Back in 1993, he openly admitted to cheating on his first wife, Sandy Mahl. Despite the betrayal, they managed to hold their marriage together until 2000 before finally calling it quits.

By the time the divorce was finalized in 2001, Garth and Trisha were already hot and heavy. They tied the knot in 2005, and for years they were considered one of country music’s strongest couples.

But with this latest controversy hanging over them, sources say their marriage is more strained than ever.
