GWYN’S IN THE SWING OF PARTY SEASON
Gwyneth Paltrow let her hair down a bit at a star-studded, intimate cocktail party on Wednesday night. “She usually doesn’t drink,” said a Confidenti@l spy who was at the swanky bash. “So it was surprising that she had a Dewar’s 12 Rob Roy in her hand the whole night.”
“She looks amazing,” gushed the party guest of Paltrow who was there to celebrate the opening of Goop Mrkt, a temporary bricks-and-mortar version of her lifestyle blog at the Shop at Columbus Circle.
We’re told the “Iron Man” actress was wearing a Valentino mini-taffeta dress and hanging out with the designer’s partner, Giancarlo Giammetti, and Drew Barrymore, who wore a poncho and maxi-dress.
Her mother, actress Blythe Banner, and pals Jessica Seinfeld, Mario Batali and Ali Wentworth were also along for the fancy festivities, as well as Goop CEO Lisa Gersh and Valentino creative directors Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli. DJ Harley Viera-Newton provided the tunes.
Paltrow “mingled with the small crowd and took Instagram pictures,” said our source. “She seemed to really be enjoying herself.”
After the cocktail reception, there was a small dinner at A Voce, where singer-songwriter Rachel Brown performed.

THEY’LL COLDPLAY THE SUPER BOWL
Does the commissioner have a cuncussion too? British soft-rockers Coldplay will be the halftime — or in this case, naptime — act for Super Bowl 50. Chris Martin’s band, famous for their moody 2000 hit “Yellow,” is certainly an underdog pick for the NFL’s biggest game of the year. Past acts have included energetic performers Tina Turner, Aerosmith, U2 and the Rolling Stones. The game will take place on Feb. 7 in Santa Clara, Calif.

SEE A LOT MORE OF SELENA
