For twelve years, Nakamura was a member of the popular Brazilian television show Domingão do Faustão, on TV Globo. She started off in the mid-2000s as a ballet dancer in the show and eventually became one of the co-presenters with Fausto Silva. Nakamura left the show in April 2016 as she decided to shift her focus to acting.[1] In September 2016, Nakamura returned to the show as a judge.[2]

Nakamura starred as Hiromi in the Brazilian drama Sol Nascente, which contained a large sub-plot focused on Brazilian-Japanese society.[3]
