se rappelle de

se rappelle de

In another lesson (sorry I don't know the name of the lesson, since I encounter them randomly), you specifically state that this sentence is not correct: 

"Elle me rappelle de Paula."  How is that different from "Elle se rappelle de ce garçon", which is given in this lesson as correct? It seems that "de" is not allowed in the first sentence but it is allowed in the second sentence. 

This question relates to:French lesson "Se souvenir de/Se rappeler (de) = To remember something in French"
