Is there a word to describe a man who is handsome but stupid?

A woman who is pretty but stupid is called a bimbo. Is there a word to describe a man who is handsome but stupid?

Thanks

No, seriously, there is no common term for this. "Mimbo" or "himbo" are slang terms.

Such a man who is kept by an older, richer woman may be called a "boy toy."

Such a man who is kept by an older, richer woman may be called a "boy toy." (But that doesn't imply he is handsome but stupid.)​

It certainly implies that he's at least moderately handsome, and one does not associate 'toy boy' with intelligence.

Note that I know the expression as 'toy boy', not 'boy toy'.

Yet another cross-Atlantic difference. It's "boy toy" here for sure.

I think "himbo" is a good choice. How about a "Neuvillette" for the literary types?

What's that about, Mike?

I'm only finding a French town when I search for Neuvillette.

He was the handsome but inarticulate friend of Cyrano. I think it is actually Christian de Neuvillette.
