fifteen minutes
Short fame duration
A period of brief fame or notoriety, from Andy Warhol's observation that "in the future, everyone will be world-famous for fifteen minutes." Someone's fifteen minutes of fame is their moment in the spotlight, often with the implication that it won't last: He had his fifteen minutes after the video went viral, then everyone forgot about him.
