Hip hop star Wyclef Jean has dismissed reports that he is not on the list of approved candidates for Haiti's presidential election.
Wyclef Jean said he had received death threats in recent days
An electoral official is said to have told the Reuters news agency the ex-Fugees singer did not satisfy legal requirements to run in the election on November 28.
But Jean hit out at the report, saying: "That is not true."
Speaking on CNN's Larry King Live programme, he added: "We are going to be OK when the list comes out."
The country's provisional electoral council requires candidates to have spent the last five consecutive years living in Haiti.
Jean, who said he had received death threats this week, lives and works in the US.
But the musician had always said his appointment as a roving ambassador by President Rene Preval in 2007 exempted him from the residency requirement.
He also told King he had had residence in Haiti "for more than five years" anyway.
The provisional electoral council is due to formally publish the list of approved candidates later.
Jean, 40, decided to stand for election following the earthquake in Haiti in January which killed up to 300,000 people.
He was among 34 contenders for the presidency who filed initial candidacy bids.
