Katalin Vad (born 16 January 1980), known by her stage name Michelle Wild (vad literally meaning "wild" in Hungarian), is a Hungarian actress and former pornographic actress who worked mainly for Private Media Group (international) and LUXx Video (Hungary).
She played "Ivett Janovics", a nurse in a hospital-themed daily soap opera called Jóban Rosszban ("Good Times, Bad Times") on Hungary's TV2.
Since her retirement from the adult business and the birth of her daughter, she has said, in several interviews in Hungary, that she has completely changed and, although she does not deny her past, she would not take the porn actress road again.
In 2009, she appeared in the documentary The Outsiders, which looks at the artists who "challenge the extremes of sexuality in art".
