Following her graduation from high school, Inaba pursued a musical career in Japan, collaborating with Pony Canyon Records on the singles Party Girl (1987), China Blue (1987), and Be Your Girl (1987).

In 1990, Inaba made her television debut as a cast member on "In Living Color" (Fox 1990-94), after which she joined Madonna as a dancer for her 1993 international concert tour The Girlie Show World Tour. On the big screen, Inaba went on to appear in major films like "Showgirls" (1995) and both "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me" (1999) and "Austin Powers in Goldmember" (2002). In 2005, Inaba joined the dance competition series "Dancing with the Stars" (ABC 2005-) as a judge. During her tenure on the series, she also became the cohost of the daytime television program "The Talk" (CBS 2017-).
