My female boss trash-talks about other co-workers to my colleague and will tell her confidential information with her only, i.e. my boss tells her what others say to her confidence. My colleague is the only one my boss tells everything to (as she's the boss' favourite) and now I'm wondering what they might be saying about me and all the others in my office (there are 9 of us). Sometimes my colleague will say, "Just to let you know (boss' name) is going to ask you to do such and such a task", then I'll reply, "But why did she tell you first and not me? Why am I hearing this second-hand?" My colleague gets to know all the latest as they're pally.
Should I look for another job? Or just go in and do my best job and ignore all the tittle tattle?

Just get on with your job, don't confide in anyone, don't gossip and be pleasant.

and be positive. Try to detach yourself from any situation where you feel someone might be deliberately making you feel second-best.
Jobs are not too easy to find these days.
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools.
Be the better person, ignore.
From your numerous posts it seems to me you’re not actually cut out to work in an office environment and would be better off doing something else.
