Wyclef Jean -- I Am NOT Collaborating with Amanda Bynes

Amanda Bynes won't be releasing an album with Wyclef Jean's help any time soon -- reps for the former Fugees rapper tell TMZ, Clef has NO intention to collaborate with the wig-wearing tornado of confusion.

There were reports Bynes and Wyclef would be joining forces for Amanda's upcoming album on Chinga Chang records -- after the label's CEO Daniel Herman went on the record saying he was bringing the two together for an explosive collaboration.

But Wyclef's management says it's just not gonna happen, telling TMZ, Wyclef has no intention of working with Amanda.

In fact, Wyclef's people say he's never even spoken to Amanda.
