Dumb Blonde | comment |
The stereotypical assumption is that blondes are dumb. These characters fit it. Perhaps no more than a Foil to the Brainy Brunette, but can also appear as The Fool, The Ditz, or even the Brainless Beauty. Extreme cases can make her the Cloudcuckoolander, or Too Dumb to Live. Her character is otherwise flexible; the Dumb Blonde ranges from a Love Freak, to a sweet, wholesome blonde whose lack of interest in education only shows that she is more concerned about people, to a vacuous, mean-spirited and often lazy bimbo, or less often to The Vamp. The Dumb Blonde may be less worldly-wise, or she may have decided to skate through life on her looks, leaving intellectual pursuits to her darker-haired counterpart because she does not want to spend the effort to cultivate her mind. It may even be a deliberately cultivated act, to appear in need of help before men. Whatever the reason, she tends to be scatter-brained and lacking in common sense. While the trope is Older Than Steam, it really started to become popular in the 1940s and '50s with comic books, radio, and movies cementing the idea of the pretty but foolish blonde. Very prone to subversion now, with the characters who assume the blonde is foolish paying for it dearly. This may be a form of Obfuscating Stupidity, with the blonde playing off the stereotype, or she may have both strengths and weaknesses, and the blonde hair causes characters to overestimate the weakness and underestimate the strengths. Some works of fiction also play with this trope by splitting it into two subtypes: One types Book Dumb, while the other is book smart, but lacks common sense. Oddly enough, this trope seems to apply to bottle blondes more than natural ones. Perhaps dyeing her hair is a sign of her natural shallowness, or it's one of the ways that she tries to get out of doing any thinking, studying, or other action to develop her mind. This is sometimes referenced by another character who asks, "Has all that hair dye you use finally seeped into your brain?" When the blonde is innocent rather than stupid, that's Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold. If the blonde is also very strong, then this takes on a Brains Versus Brawn dynamic, especially if the Brainy Brunette is there as a contrast or in a Brains and Brawn duo. When the blonde is sexy rather than stupid, that's Everyone Loves Blondes. If she is sexy and stupid, she's a Brainless Beauty. And if she's in a Four-Temperament Ensemble, she's probably Sanguine. Bonus points go to Dumb Blonde characters who aren't real blondes. Especially watch out for a Ditzy Genius or a Modern Major General. Not quite Always Female, but mostly so. Because not every blonde person you come across is an idiot, No Real Life Examples, Please! noreallife |

Wonder Woman (1942): It depended on what was needed for the story but during the late Golden Age and Silver Age Steve Trevor usually fits as a male example, being a pretty blonde that many characters are attracted to but somehow being unable to tell that the "two" women he spends almost all of his time with are one and the same and constantly walking into obvious traps despite being an intelligence agent. | |

Beatrice from Another Period is portrayed as very ignorant and clueless. She, however, is Obfuscating Stupidity and is, in fact, a Genius Ditz. She's great at math despite being illiterate, has an amazing opera voice, and can discuss ethics and politics quite well. A season 2 episode revolves around her being able to show her smarts off but she ends up choosing to continue acting dumb. | |

Played with in the spoof Loaded Weapon 1. Destiny Demeanor, Kathy Ireland's character, is a gorgeous blonde, comically Literal-Minded, and, when the hero blows in one of her ears, the breeze snuffs out a lit candle beside her opposite ear, but at the same time, she's actually one of the saner, more Genre Savvy people in the film. | |

Valentine: Lily Voight is a straight example as a Genki Girl who's gullible enough to bite into an unmarked box of chocolates that turns out to contain maggots and apparently entered into a relationship with a guy she knew would be trouble but dated him anyway. Her friend Kate on the other hand is also blonde yet has a consistent job, conducts most of the research into someone her friends hurt in the past, and is much more cautious about her boyfriend due to his past behavior (the guy has a drinking problem). | |

The Mighty Thor: Depending on the Writer, Thor can very easily be a male version. Being too Hot-Blooded for his own good, he tends to get outwitted by his brother Loki in Brains Evil, Brawn Good scenarios or even outsmarted by fellow Avengers. Though later Thor would avert this, actually being pretty crafty when he wants. | |

Male example: Daisukenojo "Beat" Bito from The World Ends with You. One particular example of this comes up when he helps Neku out despite being a Reaper. When Kariya says that he is walking on thin ice, his response? "Shibuya ain't cold for ice, stupid!". Also, he doesn't realise that other characters are insulting him and mistakenly takes it as a compliment until Neku points it out, causing him to be genuinely shocked. | |

In a strip of So... You're a Cartoonist?, author Andrew Dobson depicts the winner of a beauty contest, who is blond, as a dumb broad. The woman is asked what her opinion is on gay marriage, and the woman, in her stupidity, mumbles that "marriage is like between a man and a woman", only for main character Atea to kick her yelling "Lesbian kick!" because she can't stand ignorance. The audience then congratulates her for her assault.This strip is based on real-life model Carrie Prejean, who during Miss USA 2009 was asked her opinion regarding gay marriage, to which she replied that due to her upbringing, she believed in traditional marriage. Dobson characterized her as a dumb bimbo who barely speaks coherently. | |

Jill Monroe in Charlie's Angels, particularly in early episodes. Although attempts are made to avert this by having Jill display unexpected insight and knowledge, there are still moments like in "Night of the Strangler" where Jill, for no reason whatsoever, asks about a suspect's astrological sign in the middle of a mission briefing (the same episode includes a joke that she's taking memory classes because she keeps forgetting things; Jill says she forgot to take the class). Jill (and her successor, Kris) also play up the stereotype as missions demand, as do (very rarely) Sabrina and Kelly as they attempt a "dumb brunette" variant. | |

Played with in Arrow. Felicity Smoak jokes that she "may be blonde, but... not that blonde" in reference to one of the ridiculous cover stories that Oliver Queen and John Diggle tried to fool her with before she became a Secret-Keeper. In fact Felicity is a genius, but actually a brunette who dyes her hair blonde. Her mother, however, who is a natural blonde, fits the stereotype to a much greater extent. | |

Detective Ishihara of Trick is this in spades. The man is so off his rocker that he would have trouble holding down a job at McDonald's, let alone become a detective with the Tokyo police, even if he's in a comedy series. Then, in the season 2 finale, when the cast goes to a forest that makes hair grow, his natural black hair grows back, displacing what must be gallons of bleach, and he not only becomes competent, but downright intelligent. One can only imagine he started bleaching his hair after becoming a detective... | |

Sarah of lonelygirl15 and LG15: the resistance is a subversion of sorts. While she can be pretty ditzy (e.g., holding maps the wrong way up), she also repeatedly shows herself to be competent, manipulative, and prone to being a Deadpan Snarker. She also frequently plays up the "dumb blonde" stereotype to her advantage. | |

The Simpsons: Bart Simpson is portrayed as a dumb boy most of the time, but he's also more talented and smarter then he lets on sometimes despite Flanderization. At least the boy has an excuse... usually. Inverted with Lisa Simpson, but one episode plays with the idea — she joins the debate team, but nobody treats her seriously because of this trope. Lisa is really upset while Bart doesn't care because he thinks this stereotype is exclusive to the women, claiming that blond men are more likely to be stereotyped as evil. Played straight with "Miss Springfield", Mayor Quimby's recurring mistress, who comes across as a Brainless Beauty. |

Chocoholic Mysteries: As noted in Bear Burglary, Rich Godfrey wanted one of these for his wife and thought Lee was one because of her speech impediment. When he found out she was actually very intelligent, it was the beginning of the end for their marriage. | |

Stella in Winx Club isn't that stupid, but she is shown to be really thick at times, and it is mentioned several times that she always gets the lower grades at school. It's implied that this is more due to her not taking her schoolwork seriously rather than that she doesn't know it. | |

iCarly: The portrayal of Britney Spears expy Ginger Fox throughout "iFix a Pop Star": In the first season, Carly's friend Sam was cast as a dumb blonde, like when, in "iWin a Date", Carly is telling Shannon everything and Sam still says, "Shhh. It could still work." As time went on, she became lazier and less stupid. |

An unintentional but undeniable example is Claire from Heroes, whose stupidity and inexplicable vulnerability to serious injury would've resulted in her death long ago if not for her Healing Factor. While she occasionally has displays of actual competence, they are undermined by frequent disastrous decision making, culminating most recently in revealing the existence of the specials to the world on a whim, which has been shown (literally in previous seasons) to never end well. To be fair, almost no one on Heroes seems to possess the intellectual capacity to avoid making potentially world-ending choices. | |

When she's alone, though, she likes to kick back and read philosophy. Interestingly, the actress herself got tired of playing blonde comedy bimbos and is now a psychologist. | |

Naruto: Zig-zagged with the title character. Naruto isn't the sharpest kunai in the pouch, especially when it comes to social graces or book smarts; however, he's surprisingly perceptive and a cunning battle tactician. Ino Yamanaka, similarly to Naruto, can be very smart when she wants, given that she was the one who concluded that Pain's real body must be around the village for his technique to work during the latter's invasion. However, when attractive boys are involved, Ino can be very, very dumb. |

Mad Men: Meredith, the SCDP/SC&P receptionist starting in Season 5, seems to have all the awareness and intelligence of a cinder block. It's very startling given that all the other blonds of the show (account man and writer Ken Cosgrove, witty yet shallow former model and anthropology major Betty Draper Francis, the smartass yet sensitive Sally Draper, calm and efficient Faye Miller, and the wise and loving Anna Draper and her priggish sister and free-spirited niece) all show to be just as, or even more intelligent than the non-blonds on the show. In fact, brunette Janie Sterling lacks common sense. | |

Not all blondes are dumb in The Night Unfurls, but two of them fit. The original version has Alicia Arcturus, a blonde Princess Knight who is responsible for the largest tactical blunder presented in the story: giving up her entire, well-defended fortress to the Black Dogs in exchange for a number of hostage nuns. Remastered version: While the above has yet to happen, Alicia continuously sending barbs to Kyril, who can slaughter an entire orc band by himself while she cannot, would definitely qualify for this trope. Chloe is blonde. Her Hair-Trigger Temper and Fantastic Racism towards humans means that she is a bomb ready to go off if not for Olga and Kyril disciplining her. Kyril even says that Chloe is testing his patience by needlessly antagonising other people. |

Total Drama: Lindsay is the textbook definition of this trope, being a beautiful blonde girl who is as dumb as a brick, to the point of constantly getting people's names wrong and forgetting that her boyfriend exists, even when he's right in front of her. Lindsay gets by in the competition thanks to her social game; while she knows she isn't all that smart, she doesn't have a mean bone in her body and is able to make friends, with moments of Obfuscating Stupidity towards people who she knows don't like her. Ironically, it’s hinted that she’s not a real blonde. Geoff isn't exactly the sharpest crayon in the box, being a stereotypical dudebro surfer, but he at least has his moments of stoner-like wisdom. He's even dumber in Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race, where Flanderization sets in and his common sense flies out the window. Owen isn't too bright either, though in his case it's less that he's blond and more that he's constantly thinking of food, even when it's detrimental to the challenges. Dakota in Revenge of Island has more common sense than her fellow rich daddy's girl Lindsay, but is still not that much brighter comparatively speaking. Unlike Lindsay, who's secure in her airheadedness, Dakota is self-conscious about her lack of intelligence, because she knows it's one of the reasons she's disliked. Sugar from Pahkitew Island is a dumb hick pageant queen in addition to being blonde. She manages to stay in the competition thanks to a combination of her brute strength, Street Smarts, and insane luck. Hockey bro Wayne from the Total Drama Island reboot happens to be gullible and dimwitted, even believing that Nichelle’s stunts were real. |

Les Sisters: Marine does incredibly stupid things which cause problems for herself and Wendy. While it can be attributed to her young age, one of the comics suggests that her teen/adult self would still be stupid. Wendy (who is a brunette) even lampshades this by calling Marine a "blonde" when she does something especially dumb. Maxence is not the sharpest tool in the shed either; he believes anything you tell him and jumps to crazy conclusions. |

Subverted with Caroline in The Giddy Death of the Gays and the Strange Demise of Straights and lampshaded by Caroline herself. Her blonde hair, occasional insecurity, and occupation as a bartender cause many to perceive her as this, but she's also a postgraduate student with a strong political and social awareness. | |

Penny from the The Big Bang Theory. She's not dumb (although she was in the pilot; that's pure Early-Installment Weirdness), but is the only "normal" person amongst a group of friends that aside from her consists of all scientists. Not at all helped by the fact that she frequently takes on the role of The Heart and enjoys reality TV. Subverted by Bernadette, who has a very Kawaiiko personality and occasionally comes across as slightly dense, but earns her degree in Microbiology over the course of the show. | |

In The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, this trope was deliberately subverted as Ashley Tisdale was asked to dye her naturally brown hair blonde so they could provide an inversion of the Dumb Blonde, Smart Asian stereotypes. As such, London embodies every characteristic of the dumb blonde apart from the actual hair color while Maddie is a good student, very logical, and has the most common sense out of all the characters. One episode features an alternate reality where things in the hotel are swapped around with Maddie being the heiress and London being the candy counter girl. Here, the trope is played straight with Maddie, so much that she makes Zack and Cody's London look like a genius. | |

Glinda from Wicked fits this trope, at first anyway. When Elphaba writes home and tries to find a word to describe her room-mate, all she can come up with is "blonde". In the song "Popular", however, she explains how her persona is actually hugely helpful, showing the first glimmer of how sharp her mind really is, which serves her well over the rest of the story's course. | |

Both inverted and played straight with the titular characters on Hope & Faith. Hope is blond but has the most common sense out of anyone. Faith, on the other hand, fits the stereotype perfectly as she's so dense at times that she almost steps over the line into being an extreme ditz. She's also a bit of a Cloudcuckoolander. | |

Senran Kagura: Defied by Shiki at every opportunity. She tells Yagyu that "just 'cause I'm blonde doesn't mean I don't notice things, you know?" In more detail, Shiki is blonde, busty (not that she stands out), runs a fashion blog, is constantly calling and texting her friends, and speaks with a regional accent associated with a less-than-bright stereotype (Woolseyism-ed into a Valley Girl accent in English). This tends to make her peers write her off as a dumbass, or at least not as attentive as a Shinobi should be. In reality, Shiki is perhaps the most well-adjusted and people-smart student featured, and tends to be extremely quick on the uptake. | |

The Order of the Stick: In Start of Darkness, when Xykon throws Lirian to the brain-eating zombies, he says that being a blonde, she might not have brains enough for them. Elan would be a rare male version of the trope (a Dumb Blond), having blond hair and a frustrating lack of common sense that makes it pretty clear INT was his dump stat. It's implied that his Evil Twin Nale hitting him in the head when they were babies had something to do with it. |

Male example: Gourry Gabriev of Slayers. Played with a bit, though: he isn't wholly naive, having been a mercenary in his late teens, and has sharp observation skills (as he shows by revealing Xellos as a high-level demonic being), good knowledge on swordplay, and high morals. He's more airheaded in regard to common sense and is Oblivious to Love. Also, due to his aforementioned background, he probably never had the chance to dive into magical knowledge and intensive literature, whereas Lina (from a family of sorcerers), Amelia (from a royal family that specializes in White Magic), and Zelgadis (raised by and was the follower of an extremely powerful priest) did. An interview with the creator Hajime Kanzaka revealed that his magic capacity rivals Lina's, but because he has such a poor memory, he cannot learn spells. | |

When the main character is clothes shopping with her friends at the beginning of Legally Blonde, the saleswoman says to her co-worker, "There's nothing I love more... than a dumb blonde with daddy's plastic." It quickly turns out that Elle is not as dumb as she looks, though. In fact, the entire film is about Elle subverting this stereotype — while she's certainly very preppy, very feminine, and very blonde, she proves to be an extremely competent lawyer against everyone else's expectations. | |

Inverted in Smallville with blonde Chloe Sullivan, who is easily the smartest recurring female character on the show and one of the smartest characters overall. Meanwhile, brunette Lana Lang is definitely not brainy (despite what the writers would like you to think). The aversion is lampshaded when Chloe refers to herself as the "sharpest blonde you'll ever meet." However, her natural hair color was actually brown. | |

Subverted with Glinda from The Wicked Years. She's a pretty blonde socialite who comes to Shiz more for the idea of going to university than actual education. Glinda starts off as an Alpha Bitch in a Girl Posse and she contrasts heavily with her Brainy Brunette roommate Elphaba. However, as Elphaba mentions to Boq early on, there's more to Glinda than initially appears. She just prefers to hide away in a mask of a clueless young woman. Eventually, Glinda's social skills end up serving her well, and she does put her brain to good use as a witch. | |

Terri on Glee, as well as her sister Kendra. The other main blond characters, Sue and Quinn, meanwhile, have fairly normal intelligence. Brittany meanwhile is the ultimate ditz.note An Alternate Character Interpretation of Brittany is that she's not actually dumb, she's completely insane and everything she does and says would make perfect sense if you were under the same delusions that she is. This interpretation is the one held by Heather Morris, the actress who plays her. | |

He's also a Supreme Chef, which requires brainpower. This trope is completely subverted with Vivian Francis Porter, who is one of the best robotics designers. Credit for her work is stolen by Dr. Finn, who seems like a Brainy Brunette but is actually a Dumb Brunette in contrast to her smart blonde. |

Played oddly straight (though possibly accidentally) on Robin Hood with Kate. Even more strangely, the actress is a natural brunette. For them to have actually dyed a woman's hair in order to make her a blonde, and then portray her as such an idiot that there was serious fan speculation that she had a mental disorder, led to several Unfortunate Implications. But it also created several moments of unintentional hilarity: when the outlaws are about to be burnt at the stake, an angry crowd begins chanting, "Burn them, burn them!" Kate joins in but is slightly out of sync. Obviously, two whole syllables were a bit much for her. | |

Wonder Woman: Wonder Woman (1942): It depended on what was needed for the story but during the late Golden Age and Silver Age Steve Trevor usually fits as a male example, being a pretty blonde that many characters are attracted to but somehow being unable to tell that the "two" women he spends almost all of his time with are one and the same and constantly walking into obvious traps despite being an intelligence agent. Sensation Comics: Two of the Heyday triplets, all three of whom are identical attractive blonde women, are acknowledged to be reckless, foolish, and dangerously impulsive to the point that their grandmother leaves her estate only to the one of them who doesn't fit here, as she feels Tillie will take care of her sisters with the money and that the other two will be better off that way than if she'd actually given them the money themselves. |

Bob's Burgers: Played with in the episode "Tina, Tailor, Soldier, Spy" when Linda dyes her hair blonde and starts feeling dumber, although Bob points out that it's because she hasn't been paying attention to anything but her new hair. Her friend Gretchen, who dyed Linda's hair in the first place, is a straight example; she dyes her hair brown and starts feeling like a Brainy Brunette, although she remains a ditz regardless. "You know what they say: Once you go brown, bye." Tina's classmates Tammy and Jocelyn are similar: Jocelyn is a natural blonde and one of the dumbest kids in the school. Tammy bleaches her hair and is only barely smarter than Jocelyn. |

Inverted by Laeshana in The Quest of the Unaligned. Even among aeshes (whose secondary power is essentially a burst of superhuman knowledge about something they've been considering), Laeshana is brilliant. At the beginning of the story, she suspects that the theory of magic everyone's followed for the past eight hundred years is missing some major components. By the end of the story, she's been proven right. | |

Subverted in Valhalla. Freya can play the man-obsessed ditz to the hilt, and enjoys making the guys act like idiots, but is consistently shown to be very socially adept (as befits a Love Goddess) as well as a level-headed and shrewd planner who has Out-Gambitted Odin on occasion. | |

In The Elder Scrolls series, this is a trait of the Aureals (aka Golden Saints), a form of lesser Daedra in service to Sheogorath, who have golden hair. However, unlike most examples of this trope, they're portrayed as "dumb" in the Dumb Muscle or Dumb Jock sense rather than being The Ditz. They don't always think things through and prefer to attack issues head-on, which, despite their power, isn't always the best course of action. This happens several times in Oblivion's Shivering Isles expansion, and they often need to be bailed out by the Champion of Cyrodiil. | |

The Lannisters from A Song of Ice and Fire cover the whole spectrum. There are lots of heads on spikes who can vouch that Tywin Lannister is a major aversion. Tywin's son Tyrion averts it in a major way as well. The twins, Jamie and Cersei... well, someone has to perpetuate the stereotype. It later turns out that Jamie is smarter than he appears to be at first; Cersei, not so much. Lancel (Cersei, Jaime and Tyrion's cousin) and Ser Stafford (Cersei calls him "Uncle Dolt") play the trope straighter than the average Lannister, to their sorrow and others' frustration. It gets them abused, dismissed, mangled, and, in one case, killed in their attempts to fit into the family's near-constant Battle of Wits that just won't accommodate their well-meaning limitations. Cersei assumes that her uncle Kevan is, if not exactly dumb, at least overly stolid and uncreative. This comes back to bite her hard when she finds out that he is actually highly intelligent and only appeared that way because he made an educated decision to be unswervingly loyal to Tywin. |

Nurse Bendy from Moral Orel shows a more depressing side to the stereotype in Season 3, which reveals that she's often mistreated (not to mention being possibly sexually abused) for being a pessimistic dumb blonde. It isn't until she is reunited with her equally unintelligent son, Joe, that she finally finds someone who accepts her for who she is in quite a heartwarming fashion. Although when she meets her son, she tells him she dyed her hair - it's really black like his. | |

Lilly from Hannah Montana. Subverted in that she gets a scholarship to a prestigious university at the end of Season 4, while Miley fails to get in (though it's due to Miley's lack of participating in extracurricular activities, which she was unable to attend due to having to work as Hannah Montana). Lilly might have her ditzy moments, but academically is of at least average intelligence. | |

On The West Wing, Lt. Jack Reese breaks a $400 ashtray (for submarines) to show Donna why it costs so much money. He wishes he hadn't done it and says to Donna (jokingly), "It's... 'cause you're blonde." As that quote implies, Donna neatly and completely subverts the trope through the entire series, often entering into heady debates with her boss and winning more than half the time because of how smart Josh is about not-politics. | |

Poland from Hetalia: Axis Powers is a quintessential example. He needed someone to turn the table while he was standing on it to screw in a lightbulb. He also talks like a Valley Girl and often pushes around a Brainy Brunet (Lithuania). Poland was still smart enough to buy time for Lithuania to pull his Big Damn Heroes moment in the Battle of Tannenberg, doing so and remaining more or less calm while Prussia was pointing a sword at him. That, and the whole series pokes fun at stereotypes of all kinds; his supposed stupidity is actually Played for Laughs, and nations with other hair colors can be just as dumb (re: Italy, a brunet who's pretty much The Ditz) and almost every Northern European is blond anyway. | |

Game of Thrones: While Cersei isn't a complete moron, Tywin perfectly assesses her when he says that she is nowhere near as intelligent as she thinks she is. Her main flaw is that she continually underestimates people, and her level of misguided arrogance about her supposed political brilliance prevents her from seeing that she is wrong. She loses control of Joffrey almost immediately after he becomes king, and most of her attempts to dispose of Tyrion are laughable failures. | |

Amusingly, Thor from the MCU is a male version. He frequently makes rash decisions, thinks science is lame, flew a spaceship by smacking buttons, and sometimes comes off as a complete Idiot Hero. It's a mark of how far Thor has come by the time of Thor: Ragnarok that he's eventually able to outwit his brother Loki the God of Mischief. Averted when it comes to battle, where he's a fighting genius, plus, as seen in Ragnarok, Thor can effectively pilot a spaceship and is more tech savvy. | |

However, she Took a Level in Kindness, getting a crush on Peter, and subverted this trope entirely years later by becoming CEO of Alchemax. Ultimate Liz plays this more straight. It's revealed Aunt May was this in her youth, nearly getting wooed away by a jewel thief before Ben Parker stepped in. |

Harley Quinn (2019): Harley Quinn had this reputation as the Joker's sidekick, but it's wrong. She graduated her high school as valedictorian and was, by all accounts, a perfectly capable clinical psychologist. Her problem is not that she's dumb, but that she hasn't had much reason to value or use her own intelligence in a long time, and is still a little rusty at it. That, and for all of her intelligence, Harley is still insane. | |

Cindy from Kindergarten is an Alpha Bitch variant of this trope. She wants to eat vegan, but she doesn't actually know what that means other than that the slop the cafeteria serves isn't vegan, so she'll eat pretty much any food you give her as long as you tell her that it is. In Kindergarten 2 you can trick her into sticking a fork in an electric socket just by telling her that it'll "cause a distraction." | |

El Goonish Shive: Susan is a heavy inversion. She is a natural blonde who dyes her hair black/blue/some dark colour and is, in fact, one of the smartest and most sensible people in the comic. A side character named Sandi is a straight example. The author has said that he doesn't feel particularly guilty about having her fit all the ditzy blonde stereotypes because she always seems to appear around perfectly intelligent blondes. Diane is a natural blonde and, although a bit shallow and snooty, is clearly not dumb. Being Susan's Separated at Birth identical twin sister might have something to do with it. |

Somehow justified in The Batman Adventures where it was shown that she got her grades getting Sextra Credit. |

Leave it to Warhammer to make a Darker and Grittier example of the Dumb Blonde. In this case, it's a male Chaos Champion named Sigvald the Magnificent. The guy is a magically beautiful, bishonen blonde Viking who is into every and any form of debauchery. The dumb part comes from him having the Stupidity rule, which is something that's usually associated with mindless creatures (even low IQ creatures like Orcs and Ogres don't get that). In Warhammer, stupidity means that you can be so stupid that you'll actually stop moving or fighting in the middle of a pitched battle (in his case, the warriors of his retinue cluster around him and hold their mirrored shields up so he can admire himself from every angle). Get close to him, however, and you'll find out exactly how the guy can behave like a fop and stay alive... | |

The Powerpuff Girls: Bubbles plays just about every blonde stereotype perfectly straight, being both less intelligent than the other girls, being more upbeat, and having more fun, on average. Of course, that doesn't mean she can't still be the heroine of the story. Bubbles appears to have gotten the short end of the subversion stick, as brawny Buttercup and brainy Blossom have hair to the opposite of their tropes. Bubbles' Distaff Counterpart Boomer is certainly a dumb blond. Well, he's certainly a Cloud Cuckoo Lander and designated Butt-Monkey, but he generally comes off as less intelligent to the other characters. |

In American Psycho, all the blondes whom Patrick Bateman interacts with are as vapid and stupid as the rest of his friends, Evelyn and Courtney primarily. Also, three models (Libby, Daisy, and Caron) Patrick and his associates mingle with in a nightclub. In the book, when they're asked to name any of the planets, two guess the Moon, and the third one guesses Comet. In the film at least, this is deconstructed with one of the models lamenting this and saddened by how Bateman sees her as nothing but a brainless squeeze, suggesting that there is more to her character, but she doesn't mind because she thinks Patrick is actually a nice person. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic has Derpy Hooves, a pegasus who is very klutzy and accident-prone. Derpy became popular with the fanbase due to her googly-eyes as a background character, which led her to become an Ascended Extra. She originally spoke with a Simpleton Voice, but due to complaints from parents thinking she was a mockery of people with disabilities, she started to speak with a normal and feminine tone of voice. | |

Doctor Who: Jo Grant, the Doctor's UNIT assistant who only got the job because her uncle was able to pull strings, and whose role as The Watson was played up so much it seemed like she needed everything explained to her by the Doctor. "Daleks in Manhattan"/"Evolution of the Daleks": Tallulah initially seems like this trope, but in a subversion is far from naïve, pointing out that it's her problem that she chooses to go into the dangerous sewers looking for her missing boyfriend. |

The producers of The Amazing Race manage to cast at least one ditzy woman in most seasons. They are usually, but not always, blondes: Subverted in Season 10, where the team of Dustin and Kandice, a pair of Beauty Queens (Miss California and Miss New York respectively), were immediately dismissed by everyone (fans and other teams) as dumb blondes, but then ended up being one of the most feared teams to ever run the race and even dominated a large portion of the All-Star season. Taken to new heights in Season 16, with Jordan Lloyd and Caite Upton. Subverted again in Season 17, with Brook, who along with brunette Claire were considered an airhead fodder team pre-race, but finished 2nd overall behind Doctors Nat (who was also blonde) and Kat. |

Sailor Venus is this more in the anime than manga. In the manga, while she is terrible at school work, she is very knowledgeable about other topics and is usually the one that solves the problems the other girls create.

Inverted in an early The Wotch arc. A blonde schoolgirl complains about all these "blonde jokes" to her (also blonde) friend and wishes that the non-blondes would be the stupid ones. She says this within earshot of a genie who's currently unable to not grant any wishes she hears. Ironically, this happens just as Anne (the redhead) has found a way to stop the mayhem... which she promptly forgets. Even further, Robin wishes to gain powers like Anne has to fix things, except her powers require she be a girl, also making him/her become a bimbo. Jason saves the day by wishing fir Anne to become a blonde. | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The show set out to subvert this trope with the titular character; she comes off on first acquaintance as a stereotypical Dumb Blonde, but turns out to be a clever, wisecracking Action Girl. On the other hand, many of the villains and minor characters (most notably Harmony) play the trope straight; and Buffy herself, though savvy and intelligent, is a mediocre student (of course, she never has much time to study) and not nearly as brainy as her redheaded friend Willow. Spike zigzags the trope. He's portrayed as distinctly observant, witty, Street Smart, fluent in multiple languages and has a surprisingly vast knowledge on the supernatural. That said, he's often too impatient and brash to take full advantage of his smarts, which leads to a great deal of dumb, impulsive mistakes. His soullessness for most of the series additionally leads to him often being confused by morality, which could come across as unintelligence but really is a simple byproduct of having no functioning moral compass and something all soulless vampires in his place would suffer from. Anya wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer in her early years and often got confused by social cues, although she's shown to be very good with math. In the Angel spin-off, Harmony has this trait really cranked up. In the parent series, she's merely an Alpha Bitch and an Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain. |

Star Wars Legends: Decidedly subverted by Tash Arranda in Galaxy of Fear. At the beginning of the series she's kind of naive but studious, but gradually starts adding her Force-Sensitivity to her wisdom score, and eventually takes a role quite similar to The Smart Guy. Her darker-haired Book Dumb brother, whose mechanical aptitude and better physical skills originally were more useful and then came to complement her talents, starts feeling useless and overshadowed. Exploited in I, Jedi. Protagonist Corran Horn, who is naturally a brunet, dyes his hair blond as part of his Kieran Halcyon disguise, which carries over to the Jenos Idanian identity he adopts to join the Invid Space Pirates. Their leader, ex-Imperial Moff Leonia Tavira, turns out to believe in this stereotype despite "Idanian" clearly being just as intelligent as the real Corran to the reader, and overestimates her ability to use her feminine wiles to control "Idanian" as a consequence. |

Ayaka plays with this trope in Negima! Magister Negi Magi. She's a bit shallow and slow on the uptake, and quite dense when it comes to recognizing when people are in love (besides herself, of course), but actually gets good grades and is apparently a little smarter than average.

House of Anubis: Amber tends to lean towards this trope, though it's shown that she is pretty smart when it counts and has come up with many ideas, including the formation of Sibuna itself. She might be a case of Brilliant, but Lazy, or more likely the Genius Ditz, as she is shown to be very skilled in fashion and often mystery-related topics as well. Mick also counts as this, but it's shown that he does have the ability to be smart and he does try, he just struggles academically. When he does get help, his grades go up by a lot. |

Played with in Hidamari Sketch: Miyako is a tall, busty blonde who often comes off as ditzy, flighty, or just plain weird, and is prone to making extremely poor decisions — but most of it seems to be the result of an extremely severe case of ADHD (which is actually presented in a surprisingly accurate fashion compared to most examples of Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny!). Artistically speaking, she is by far the most talented of the main characters (all of whom go to a prestigious art school, mind you), she is quite a fair bit more knowledgeable than all of them (when it comes to strange and extremely obscure trivia), and she's such an academic genius that it's heavily implied that she got accepted to the school on a full scholarship (because she appears to be dirt poor) and was actually exempted from having to do the academic portion of the entry exams. | |

In Kick Buttowski, Gunther Magnuson is helpful but easily distracted and confused. | |

Charmed (1998): Phoebe went blonde in the third season and, while she was already a bit of a ditz, whenever she had a moment, Prue or Piper would call attention to her being a blonde. Paige — the ditziest of the sisters — went blonde in season 6, but nobody ever referenced it. Billie sometimes uses Obfuscating Stupidity but, like Bridget above (played by the same actress), is shown to be capable enough. A season 6 episode has three evil blonde witches who are completely dim. Their entry in the Book of Shadows says there's no need to vanquish them because of how incompetent they are. |

This is more or less how Jen is introduced in Revenge (2017). She's a helluva lot more competent than anyone expects, though. | |

Noel Vermillion from BlazBlue combines this with Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold and, strangely enough, Fiery Redhead. While she's the most emotional of the Three Stooges of Torifune, she has to study extra hard to keep pace with her friends, and even then she tends to run on her impulses instead of thinking things completely through. Needless to say, this causes problems, and Jin Kisaragi doesn't help at all. But let's be fair to Noel; she's only five. | |

Poppy on Frasier. Unusually for the trope, her defining character trait is being an irritating Motor Mouth — her being stupid is incidental. | |

Sabrina the Teenage Witch: Generally averted with Sabrina and her aunts (though Hilda is Book Dumb), but the trope is invoked in some episodes. In one episode, a cleaning spell goes wrong, resulting in the black-furred cat Salem turning white. The response: An episode has Sabrina getting hit with an airhead virus that turns her into the stereotypical dumb blonde. |

Sailor Moon: Sailor Moon manages to get blond-pure and blond-ditz in the same character. Sailor Venus is this more in the anime than manga. In the manga, while she is terrible at school work, she is very knowledgeable about other topics and is usually the one that solves the problems the other girls create. Though in the early days of Codename: Sailor V, she played this a little straighter. |

Voltes V: Inverted with Prince Heinel. He graduated as the top cadet at the Boazanian Institute of Military Sciences and Warfare, and was the only one competent enough to lead the Earthern Invasion. Even Zaki, who hates him, admits it. Also inverted with Katherine, who shows herself to be the Only Sane Woman between her bloodthirsty comrades. | |

Barbie in Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse is often depicted in the airhead stereotype, but given the metafictional aspects of the series (the characters know they're dolls, for example) this falls closer to the lampshading side of things. | |
