"15 Minutes of Fame" refers to fame in the short term. Andy Warhol coined the phrase in 1968, saying, "In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes." He was referring to the ready accessibility and ubiquity of the media. Some might say he accurately predicted the future, as the 21st century has seen the advent of Internet, social media, and reality TV "stars." The fleeting nature of this type of fame, along with its downside, is daily documented, as talent-free media darlings struggle to prolong their status beyond the limits of the public's interest. This type of fame may be claimed through television, print media, radio, or Internet, including social media and social networking sites. In 1986, Warhol conceived of the series "Andy Warhol's 15 Minutes," which aired on MTV into 1987."http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/15_minutes
