Why would you be world famous you might ask? Well the expression from the late 60’s might have referred to many things but after five decades it seems clear to me what Andy Warhol meant. I think he referred to the introduction to the internet and social media. Blogging, Tweeting, Facebook and YouTube has made it possible for any person to become famous for a few minutes even if it is only to a few people the moment of fame will be on the World Wide Web available to everyone for a longer period than any paparazzi photo shot published or shown on TV in the 60's.
Together with the publics growing interest in reality TV, more oppertunity has been made available for everyday people to be featured on national Television.
