Le gusta la chica - article use with gusta + person?

The note above says "we use the definite article with the thing/s that one likes, unless we're talking about a place or a person".  But one of the examples is "Les gusta la chica alta" - isn't "the tall girl" a person? Or do you just mean a person's name?

Hola Vicki

the text in the lesson referring to this meant when you "refer to a specific person" (i.e. using the name) I've modified the text to reflect this.

Gracias y saludos
