I'm sorry but until Pose, Billy Porter was not a celebrity. He was a well known-to-theater-people Tony winner, and before that just a working actor (which he still is). So prior to being a famous TV and red-carpet and social media star, he was by no one's definition a "celebrity" that one should treat as a celebrity.

But unless you're Oprah ... if you're at a party for a theater show that people are invited to by those involved, you should not expect anyone to treat you like you're above everyone else and not approach you or speak to you if they don't already know you. It doesn't sound like he was being hounded by random fans on the street here.
Who knows what was going on in his head that moment or that night... but if what was described is accurate, this was on Billy... who was definitely not a celebrity at that time... if that even should matter (which I do think depends on the situation).
