![]() Dragon Ball introduces Bulma's mom, who is very attractive (and never seems to age throughout the entire franchise), but she's not very smart.She also has an equally unsettling obsession with bananas. The attractive Yoshiko Hanabatake from Aho Girl manages to turn this trope into an art form, and you could question how or why she's not kicked out of high school, as she is known to get all zeros on her tests, and pretty proud of it, too.For some reason, male Brainless Beauties very rarely turn out to be secretly smart.īecause beauty is subjective, and we don't want to assume all beautiful people are dumb, No Real Life Examples, Please! If this trope is set in a High School (or more rarely a university) and a female main character falls under this trope there is a fairly good chance she is secretly smart but employing Obfuscating Stupidity (because Popular Is Dumb) or at least has Hidden Depths.

In a High School setting the Alpha Bitch usually has one of these characters in her Girl Posse though the Alpha Bitch usually isn't one herself because she needs a certain amount of craftiness to maintain her position.ĭumb Blonde covers some of the same territory but (obviously) not all Brainless Beauties are blonde, and by no means are all Dumb Blondes as sexualised as this trope. ![]() An Asian Airhead is probably one of these.

Sometimes overlaps with Bratty Teenage Daughter and Genius Ditz. ![]()
