Christina Aguilera has dropped a sprog. Heat readers are no doubt beside themselves. I, on the other hand, couldn’t really claim to give a toss if it wasn’t for the grammatical error made by Xtina (does that pseudonym make anyone else get a little bit of sick in the mouth?) in her official announcement.

Dear fans,

Today is a very joyful and special day for Jordan and I as we welcome our first son into this world.

Come on Xtina (oh no, it happened again), we’ve covered this before. You wouldn’t say, “…a special day for I,” so you must use “…Jordan and me“. Using “I” doesn’t make it any more official.

There are some who argue that “xxx and I” (as an object) should be treated as a separate form to “I”, and that because usage is increasing we should learn to live with it.

In my town, stabbings are on the increase; should we learn to accept stabbing? Should we all join in with a little stabbing of a weekend? Doesn’t that sound like fun?

Thank you, Kate, for bringing this to my attention and remaining resolutely belligerent on the topic.
