Andy Warhol's Fifteen Minutes

Okay kiddo, so you know how some people can become really famous for a little while and then people kind of forget about them? Well, a long time ago, there was an artist named Andy Warhol who said that everyone will have their "fifteen minutes" of fame.

This means that even regular, everyday people can become famous for a little while if they get noticed. Warhol thought this was interesting because it's like anyone can be famous if they do something special or different enough to catch people's attention.

But Warhol's idea also meant that fame doesn't last forever - it only lasts for about 15 minutes before people move on to the next cool thing. So even if someone becomes famous, they should enjoy it while it lasts but remember that it won't last forever.

Do you have any other questions, kiddo?
