Paparazzi are like sports photogs shooting a game - they want fast fps, quick processing turnaround, and quick transmission of the images back to base, in addition to conventionally useful features like good low-light and good lens reach. They don't want huge file sizes and slow fps, and don't need amazing resolution and image quality.
So I don't expect to see many paps using D800's (or Phase One's or Hasselblads) anytime soon.
