We're not talking about "gorgeous", we're talking about "longevity".  Language is a living thing, and just because a word is pronounced one way now doesn't mean that's how it will always be.  The extremely knowledgeable people I heard on the radio were united in their opinion that the way people pronounce "longevity" is already changing, and I see no reason to doubt their expertise - particularly as I hear it happening on TV and in the world around me.
