A pair of Utah teenagers could win a million dollars Wednesday night on national television, but they insist they're not overly nervous about it.

“It doesn’t even feel real most of the time,” said Charity Anderson, who, along with her partner, Andres Penate, is competing in the two-hour season finale of NBC’s “World of Dance” (Wednesday, 8 p.m., Channel 5).“We still can’t comprehend it all,” Penate said. “It’s like — is this really happening? I have to pinch myself.”

The 18-year-olds, who just graduated from Springville High, began their improbable journey to fame — and possibly fortune — with no thoughts of winning.
