15min of fame

Andy Warhol talked about 15 minutes of fame 40 years ago, now i believe we get even less time. With the use of the internet, more TV channels, and more entertainment news than ever, i believe anyone can be famous. The only problem with that is once you are famous, someone more interesting will be found even quicker, compared to Warhol’s time, 40 plus years ago. If i was i throw out a number i would say its about 3 minutes of fame now a days. Some good examples would be all of the crazy internet stars. Those people found on Youtube, doing stupid things. Half of those crazy people we know were famous not to long ago, and now we barley remember them. The turn around rate for fame is becoming quicker and quicker as technology progresses. The positive side of this is that once you become famous, you are now internationally famous with a click of a button. The internet is the reason for this.
