Season 9 of "The Voice" is entering its most exciting phase - the Knockout Rounds - and this season, its all the more exciting as none other than "Bad Girl Riri" Rihanna will be the contestants' mentor in the tough and gruelling weeks ahead.

It's been almost a month since Season 9 of "The Voice" started airing on NBC. It's time for Rihanna's entry on October 26.

Everyone is excited to have Rihanna on Season 9 of "The Voice" and NBC recently released a promo of Rihanna in mentor mode where she seemed to be having fun at the expense of a contestant. At the same time, she showed she could also be tough. In her typical way, Rihanna exudes style, gives fashion tips, makes a contestant squirm and then says it was all "in jest."

In the teaser promo for "The Voice," there were shots of Rihanna having some fun with the button. She seemed happy checking the button out but not before dishing out big one-liners in her typical style. She exclaimed, "What the heck was that?" and at one point, she retorted, saying, "Don't sass me!"

It looks as if Rihanna is taking the role of a mentor quite seriously. The promo reveals some fun moments she had with a contestant, Jordan Smith. She riled the boy, telling him, "I don't like you right now. I just met you, you know, and I don't like you. I thought I liked you, but I don't like you no mo."

Viewers will soon come to know that it was all in fun as Adam Levine joins in the "I don't like you" ribbing.

People will also see Rihanna giving some constructive criticism about fashion to the contestants. She told one girl that it's all a fantasy.

At the end of the clip, Rihanna seemed satisfied with her job and says, "I think I'm a natural!" as she once again hits the button.

Don't miss this exciting episode of "The Voice" on October 26 on NBC.
