Michaela Schaffrath (née Jänke; born 6 December 1970) is a German television actress and former pornographic actress.

A former nurse, she got started in the adult film industry after she posed nude for Coupé, a German adult magazine.[1] She gained international notoriety during her career as a pornographic actress under the stage name Gina Wild.[1] She won two Venus Awards, for Best New Starlet in 1999 and Best German Actress in 2000.[1][2]

In 2000, Schaffrath retired from pornography and moved into mainstream acting, and has since appeared in numerous German television series, such as TV total, In aller Freundschaft, and Wer wird Millionär?.[3] In 2005, she put the rights to her stage name and the brand 'Gina Wild' up for sale, in an attempt to shed her porn star past.[1]

She is managed by her former husband, and as of 2009, lived in both Frankfurt and Hamburg.[1]
