From heart + throb.
noun heartthrobs · heart throb · heart-throb
- A heartbeat.
- The object of one’s desires or infatuation; a sweetheart.

And really, Michael Jackson is a more fitting aspiration for the similarly sexless would-be-former teen heartthrob, who’s compared himself to the late King Of Pop (perhaps a bit prematurely) on several occasions and sings in a Jackson-like croon over a sample of “We’ve Got A Good Thing Going” on Bel
