Eriko Tamura (田村 英里子 Tamura Eriko?) is a Japanese actress and singer. The animated television show Idol Densetsu Eriko (Legendary Idol Eriko) was based on her.
Tamura has starred in over 15 films and television series in Japan. Tamura has enjoyed remarkable success as singer as well, having released 10 original albums and 15 singles from Toshiba EMI.
She currently appears in Heroes as Princess Yaeko[2], the swordsmith's daughter. She is also a producer and host for JATV.
Tamura has recently been cast as a leading role Mai, in the live-action film based on the manga, Dragon Ball.[3]
She gave a quote for Japan's edition of VARIETY: "I feel deeply honored to have been cast in the role of Mai because Akira Toriyama's manga DRAGONBALL is so incredibly well-known among the people of Japan and brings together such a rich mythology of characters. The film has already begun shooting in Mexico and although we have a lot of work ahead of us, I look forward to a successful collaboration with filmmakers James Wong and Stephen Chow. DRAGONBALL is a very exciting project for all of us."
