I did a little research on this....

…
The "dumb blonde" stereotype, which is a root of blonde jokes, may have originated in Europe in the late 19th century. Some possible origins include:
The Ixion myth
In 1868, a British burlesque troupe performed a spoof of the myth in New York City that featured four blondes in tights. This outraged moralists who felt the girls were talentless.
The term "dizzy blonde"
In the decade after the Ixion myth, the term "dizzy blonde" began to appear. "Dizzy" was slang for risqué stage performers and professional beauties, and meant foolish or stupid.
Rosalie Duthé
A French courtesan named Rosalie Duthé was satirized in a 1775 play for her habit of pausing a long time before speaking, appearing not only stupid but literally dumb (meaning mute).

I would think it because blonde was more rare back in the day and as a result they got more attention
