Actually, extraordinarily good looking or even just normally beautiful people are known to be more intelligent and of sound mental health. Beauty indicates physical health and lack of genetic mutation, the brain is the biggest organ to be affected by mutations. These mutations are easy to detect through facial or bodily deformities. If you look at the far left, you will see they are very ugly which perfectly corresponds with their mental illness. Check out dr. Dutton for details

An argument could be said for women, and a very few men, that they don't have to improve themselves much so long as they stay beautiful. One of the hardest improvements is instilling a lifetime of learning, the vast base of knowledge gathered over your life, and thinking upon it, makes for an interesting character. If you lack that due to merely floating through life based upon your looks, it could correlate to seemingly low IQ. IQ itself is meaningless unless you ruthlessly take advantage of it.

I think you are conflating iq with knowledge or even “education”. While knowledge can be attained, IQ is genetically determined. Although, with a high IQ, it’s almost impossible to not gain knowledge even without trying. Lack of mutational load leads to superior physical and mental health. Superiority in physical health manifests itself as beauty, many a times.
One may lack “character” because they didn’t need to build a personality given their outrageous beauty. But that doesn’t equate to low IQ, it just means one is gorgeous and a jerk. IQ is not meaningless in life, regardless of what you do with personality development. In terms of success in life, say financially or romantically, IQ is not enough without hard work and conscientiousness (according to research)
