To me, to be named an "All Star", a contestant should be measured by more than just how long they've been in the game, (though that is a major thing to factor in). Other things to factor in are their actions and their abilities.

In Dawn's case, I'd say her abilities make her an all star. She can read auras, predict the future, and communicate with animals. All of which, provide a great advantage for her.

The primary reason I put her in the season, is because she's the only character who'd fit into the Mike storyline, better than Zoey. Another option was DJ, who easily makes for a bigger All Star than Dawn, but without the aura reading powers, he just doesn't fit quite as perfectly as Dawn. I'd still accept him being in the finale, just not nearly as much as I would with Dawn.
