You could be on to something there. She did play the dizzy role in a lot of films. Was she actually a real blonde, though? I don't know for sure, but she kind of didn't look like one to me.
No, she was not a natural blonde. I can not remember where I got the information but she is the one that started the stereotype.
There are other reasons for it as well, such as blondeness being attributed to childishness as caucasians are often born blonde and stay blonde up until they are older children (certainly before their teen years) as well. I was not so lucky, I was born with black hair =/
Blonde stereotype?

I think it originally spawned from Marylin Monroe.

Wow, thank you. She should have stayed how she was. I was never attracted to the blonde version of her, but the natural one is very pretty.
