y’ellostars Estrelas de Ouro / Estrelas d'Oiro

Explanation:
I have been trying to think why they didn't just call the contest YellowStars as that seems to be what is intended. The only reason I can think for that is that they also tried to do a kind of play on words. Unfortunately I haven't been able to of think anything clever.

This is just one more suggestion which might be more acceptable to your client.

Try running this one past the client:

Trabalhad'Ouro

I can't work the word star into anything :-(
Did you mean (in one of those notes you added) that the word "estrela" has to be part of the translation?
