I'm keeping an open mind on this one because some of these allegations is a bit constructive/interpretive:

Ms Davis alleges the two questioned whether she was "struggling with something as she seemed less committed to her role on the dance cast", the case details.

"In professional dance, a dancer's weight gain is often seen as that dancer getting lazy or worse off as a performer. Lizzo's and Ms. Scott's questions about Ms. Davis's commitment to the tour were thinly veiled concerns about Ms Davis's weight gain," the documents allege.

So what actually happened is she was asked if something was wrong because they thought she was less committed.

Her argument here is that reading between the lines they really meant "you are too fat".

But what if reading between the lines they actually meant "you keep phoning it in during rehearsals"?
