She debuted in a McDonald's commercial at age ten in 1993 with her younger sister Aki who would also become an actress. She was in elementary school when shooting her first commercial. She would sign with the Crayon talent agency and appear in Appare Sanma Dai Sensei as a schoolgirl. She would change her management company to Granpapa in 1997. That same year she was in the pop group Pretty Chat and release the video and single Wake Up Girls. That was the act's sole record. She also had a song with her sister called Don't Cry in 1998.

She married actor Nakamura Kankuroo in October 2009. She had met him when she was 17, and he was 19, while filming Hikari No Teikoku. At first she was not convinced of the need for marriage, but following several familial and personal problems and his help she would come around. They have two sons. One was born in 2011 and the second was born in 2013. Both sons have appeared on the kabuki stage. Ai cites piano as a skill. As of this writing she has nine photo books. She should not be confused with the voice actress with the same name, although this Maeda Ai has also ventured into that territory.
