Question

read the source of the allusion.

in 1967, visual artist andy warhol predicted that \everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes\ in the coming years, suggesting that everybody, no matter their accomplishments, would briefly rise to fame.

what is the meaning of the allusion in the sentence below?

mia had her fifteen minutes when her video of kayaking with dolphins went viral.

an extraordinary event

a moment that launches someone to stardom

a temporary moment of celebrity status

Explanation:

First, we understand from the source that Andy Warhol's "fifteen minutes" allusion means brief fame. In Mia's case, her video going viral gave her temporary fame. The first option is about an event, not fame. The second implies long - term stardom, but the allusion is about brief fame. The third option, "a temporary moment of celebrity status", matches the meaning of the allusion (brief fame) and Mia's situation (temporary fame from the viral video).

Answer:

a temporary moment of celebrity status
