"He's a Whore"/"The Model" is the last single released by American noise rock band Big Black in 1987. Both songs on this release are covers, the first track by Cheap Trick and the second by Kraftwerk.[1] The cover of the 7" sleeve imitates both of the original singles. Both songs can be found on the CD version of the album Songs About Fucking,[2] while the vinyl version includes only "The Model" (with a different intro).
