Andy Warhol said, “In the future everybody will be world famous for fifteen minutes.” You can’t choose the 15minutes but why would you be world famous?



With the world growing at such a rapid rate I do to some extent think that we may be famous, not by name, but for anything less than 15minutes. And I’m not talking about the people who are already famous, just us normal folk. Also some of us don’t really want to be famous, we just chill in the background and keep a low profile.
I believe that this is where being online comes in, whether it be Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or even just you attending a party once upon a time. I do not however think that everybody will be world famous for 15minutes, simply because there are still a large number of people who unaccounted for. Also if we were to be famous in the future we would probably not all have exactly 15minutes of fame.
I may have had my ‘less than 15minutes’ moment already, but it was not what I wanted to be famous for. And like the blog topic says, ‘you can’t choose it’ I’d say that time did not happen. I can’t choose the 15 minutes but i would be world famous for inventing machinery that generates electricity, without fossil fuels, at a cheaper rate for everyone. Bold but watch this space.
