The 2021 Kennedy Center Honors have officially been awarded, and Garth Brooks is proud to be a part of this years honorees.
On Friday, Garth Brooks took the stage with icons Dick Van Dyke, Debbie Allen, Joan Baez, and Midori to be honored with a medallion to celebrate each recipient for their lifetime of contributions to American culture.
Although the awards looked different this year due to the Pandemic, and normally take place in December, the level of class on that stage still shined through.
Garth was especially proud to be among those honored this year.

Looks like Trisha is pretty proud of her man as well.
