The rockers hit

He and bodysurfer and retired lifeguard Mark Cunningham surfed the North Shore's Laniakea break Friday . ... Jimmy Buffett arrived Sunday, piloting his $10-million-plus Falcon jet from California for tonight's Waikiki Shell concert. What does he do after checking into his hotel? Hit the beach, of course! Buffett then dropped by Duke's Canoe Club for dinner and sang "Margaritaville" with Henry Kapono. Concert promoter Tom Moffatt said Kapono will return the favor at Buffett's concert tonight. Kapono appears on and sings two songs on Buffett's new DVD/CD combo "Live in Hawaii: Jimmy Buffett." ...

The show didn't end when the last model left the stage. Co-host Linda Coble -- talking about trips to Paris with her sister, Dior regional manager Cammy Maheras -- sent hubby and co-host Kirk Matthews down the runway to demonstrate the Paris models' demeanor. He did so with plenty of sass and attitude, drawing much laughter ... Speaking of Dior, the boutique celebrated its grand re-opening at Ala Moana Center yesterday ...
