In PlayStation2's GUITAR HERO, star power is ready after your meter has reached a certain level, allowing a bonus multipler until your star power runs out. This is activated by the words "STAR POWER READY!" cueing you to sweep your guitar vertically in typical rocker style, or you can wuss out and press select for the same effect.
In real life, a person will get ballsy after realizing or hearing from his buddies that if he's "star power ready"...carpe diem, rock star! Bonus confidence and self esteem!

Get the Full Burhurmph Powermug. In Pop Culture: A phrase adopted by dissidents who've chosen a non-violent approach by using truth to oppose perceived acts of oppression by the government.
Note: The phrase is sometimes misappropriated by some groups with irrational fears.
Historically: The best argument so far is that the phrase spoken using these exact words is attributed to pamphlet called "Speak Truth to Power: a Quaker Search for an Alternative to Violence", published in 1955. Older phrases similar in nature with practicality the same meaning dated back much earlier.

Excerpt from steampoweredgiraffe.com -
"Once called the 8th 1/2 Wonder of the World, Colonel Walter's Steam Powered Robots are a technological marvel that has astounded the world for generations!
Created in 1896 by Colonel P. A. Walter I, these robots still run off their original steam powered engines and artificial intelligence. But you'll find no generic boilers or clockwork brains in these robots! How their steam-driven power supplies function is a secret that the Walter family holds close, and those who have tried have ultimately met disastrous outcomes.
Today the robots are all refurbished with better plating, rubber buffers, and hydraulic tubing. New parts have replaced any old ones that have worn and torn over the centuries, but the robots all retain their original chassis, and are vintage relics of unmatched engineering.
Of all the Walter robots the most popular are the ones who currently perform in the band Steam Powered Giraffe, whose namesake comes from Walter's first robot, a giant mechanical giraffe."
Their latest album is called The 2cent Show and is available for purchase on their website. (Give it a trial listen on the main page! free!)
