A stereotype used in various media, growing to prominence in The '90s and the Turn of the Millennium. It is an inversion of Asian and Nerdy, purposefully turning the "model minority" stereotype on its head by having the Asian character in the narrative be the dumbest of the bunch rather than a Stereotypical Nerd, the The Smart Guy, The Perfectionist, or a Book Smart Go-Getter Girl set to become a doctor, lawyer, or engineer. Like Dumb Blonde, the stupidity of the characters can be presented in a variety of ways: The Ditz, The Fool, etc. Rarely will they present as the Insufferable Imbecile who is dumb, stubbornly ignorant, and rude, unless the character is a Dumb Jock or an Alpha Bitch (Popular Is Dumb, and these characters are at the top of the Popularity Food Chain). Many examples take the "airhead" in the trope name somewhat literally and make these dumb Asian characters a Cloudcuckoolander, a Kindhearted Simpleton whose head is in the clouds and appears to be channeling a different...frequency from everyone else. While Book Dumb, they aren't complete idiots and will occasionally drop Simple-Minded Wisdom to the shock of those around them. Tends to overlap with Brainless Beauty, Plucky Comic Relief, and Valley Girl in particular, given the high number of Asian people in Real Life who live on the American West Coast where the accent originated. Female versions tend to be the preferred type of Asian girls for fictional white guys. And on that note, while this is frequently a girl or young woman, male examples are not unheard of and have gained prominence in the latter half of the 2010's. Note: Given this trope is a direct response to a Western stereotype about Asian people, this trope only really applies to works that have a majority non-Asian cast and were created by and for non-Asian audiences. The vast majority of Anime, Manga, Asian Animation, Light Novels, and other media by and for an Asian audience do not qualify. Examples |

Claudia Kishi of The Baby-Sitters Club is crafty/artsy but has problems with grades, in contrast with her Asian and Nerdy older sister Janine. In The Movie, she has to go to summer school and is shown to be unable to remember the digestive system. In most of the books, though, it's indicated that while Claudia isn't very good at school, she is, in fact, intelligent. Mostly. Spelling, one of her defining not-too-bright traits, improved for awhile, before plummeting to near elementary-school-levels in the later books, to the point that it became a fandom joke. | |

London Tipton from The Suite Life of Zack & Cody. A beautiful, rich, popular young Asian-American girl... who just happens to be dense as a brick.note It turns out that the role was not written for an Asian girl, as it's supposed to be a parody of Paris Hilton. In fact, Ashley Tisdale was originally going to play London with Brenda Song in the Maddie role, but they ended up being switched because the girls played the other parts better. This is referenced in the Alternate Reality Episode, where the girls are their original intended roles. London originally started out as simply being a lazy rich kid who didn't like school or work, however she was flanderized into being increasingly more ignorant as time went on. In later seasons she is a Brainless Beauty who Never Learned to Read. | |

White Wolves II: The Filipino Steve has some wariness and respect for the wilderness, but also gets some Literal-Minded and Skewed Priorities moments. When Beri makes a crack about breaking out a guitar to sing campfire songs, he thinks she means they have a real guitar. More dramatically, he fails to bury food scraps far from the camp, which attracts a bear. | |

Ready Jet Go!: Lillian, who is Chinese-American, is shown to be somewhat ditzy. In "The Grandest Canyon" she doesn't know what "perspective" means, and in "Mindy Turns Five", she outright tells Mindy what she got her for her birthday instead of keeping it a surprise like she said she would. In "Fact or Fiction?", she legitimately believes that clouds are made of cotton candy. Why? Because someone at school told her so. | |

In American Dad!, we have Francine's unseen adoptive sister Gwen; Stan's constantly going on about how hot she is (even recalling how beautiful she looked on Francine's wedding day) and her parents favor her...but they openly admit that it's because she's an idiot who needs all the help she can get, while Francine is smart and clever enough to take care of herself. As Francine's father put it: "I mean can you believe it? An Asian girl who can't do math?!" However, this is later retconned when she appears in the show. Aside from lighting a cigarette in a gas-soaked room and failing math in high school, she's actually quite intelligent, cunning, and manipulative. | |

Stacy Hirano, Candace's best friend from Phineas and Ferb, sometimes fits this trope. Stacy does show a keen interest in things like fashion and romance, and she appears to be Book Dumb (since she thinks the pyramids are in France), but she's often the Straight Man to Candace's neurotic mania. She gets easily distracted when trying to bust Phineas and Ferb for Candace, but that's mainly because she realizes there's no real point in doing so; given another task, she's far more sane and rational than Candace. (Also of note: Stacy's mother is a doctor, and apparently she'll grow up to be the President of Uruguay.) | |

Tiffany, a member of the Fashion Club on Daria. She has no actual characterization: she just agrees with whatever her friends tell her to. She is also the dumbest character of the Fashion Club; she, literally, agreed with whoever spoke last, lost her place on a piece of paper three sentences in, and just so you know, that isn't how fast she speaks, that's how fast she thinks. She also scores the lowest out of her friends on the PSATs at a lackluster 902, when most colleges will typically only accept 1200 points or higher. | |

Vampire Cheerleaders: Suki lies somewhere between being a a ditz and a goofball. While her antics are played for laughs, her impulsive behavior and lack of forethought tends to create problems for her friends. She also has an incredibly short attention span, which made for poor study habits that caused her to flunk her senior year. Though, truthfully, it was done as an excuse to keep Suki in the story, since she was the only one of the cheerleaders that the fans liked. | |

Danny Phantom: Kwan (is that his first name or his last name?) is Dash's friend and was initially shown as being a Jerk Jock like him, but became more of a dumb Token Good Teammate of the popular kids as time went on. Interestingly, the Bad Future shown in "The Ultimate Enemy" seems to have him grow up to be a scientist, so he may switch to that other stereotype when high school popularity is no longer a factor. | |

Kuki Sanban (a.k.a. Numbuh 3) of Codename: Kids Next Door is effectively like a younger, prepubescent Hay Lin. An adorable, girly, kindhearted, rather prissy Japanese girl who is personified as being extremely scatterbrained. But she has a fair share of kick-butt moments that even it out. The finale shows that she is really a Stepford Smiler and her peppy personality is mostly an act, however Numbuh 3 still officially caused problems for her team due to ignorance such as in episodes "Operation: NO-POWUH" and "Operation: SPANK". Of note is that she was voiced by Lauren Tom, the same actress who provides the voice for Amy Wong in Futurama. In fact, one of the only young, popular characters she voices that doesn't fit into this trope in some manner is Kahn "Connie" Souphanousinphone, Jr. from King of the Hill. In a twist of irony, Numbuh 3 claims that she's not an airhead in the series finale "Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S" but she could have been sarcastic / joking. If not, then she's oblivious to her own abnormal behavior. | |

Subverted in the Star Trek: Enterprise Relaunch novel The Romulan War: Beneath the Raptor's Wing, when a reporter is taken aback to find the current Dalai Lama is a teenage girl who talks like a Valley Girl and says she doesn't follow the news, but by the end the reporter has decided she probably does have the wisdom you'd expect of the Dalai Lama, just an unusual way of showing it. | |

Lee Lee, one of Dee Dee's friends in Dexter's Laboratory. Though, to be fair, she just has the exact same ditzy personality as Dee Dee and all her other friends. | |

Salute Your Shorts had Dina Alexander. Played by Chinese-American actress Heidi Lucas, she was, in effect, a mirror image of London Tipton years before the latter character was created. Dina is dim-witted, easily manipulated, vain, and yet also universally considered beautiful and popular by her peers. | |
