At my school, there was a dance / physics double major. Not sure how she was at dance, but I had a physics class with her and she was mediocre at that, but still a lot of work to do both and she certainly wasn't stupid.
Also the best looking girl in the physics department by a looooot, so that probably got her opportunities after graduation as well.
I’ve actually seen pretty girls do better in STEM academic fields seemingly by virtue of being the least fugly. They’re still plenty talented but you’d be hard pressed to say they didn’t get a foot in the door because they were easy on the eyes. Which is fine. Works with guys too. Being talented and attractive wins over just being talented.
